Great Outs !!!

Explain how the bet works please. If he missed, he drops to zero?
It's a break and run pot. I guess the players pay into the pot and they have a raffle to see who gets to try. They divide the total pot by 10. So there must be $20k in the pot. That's a pretty big one. Sometimes it's $250 a ball or $628 a ball or $450 a ball or $1100 a ball, etc

Ok but why did he have the option to bail on the run?
 
Not to defend the commentators, but it is deceiving to call shot from the booth. There were a couple shots that you couldn't tell it they would go or not. But I agree, I love when players think outside of the box and come up with different patterns. I find it fun trying to predict what a player will do differently from what I would do and then ask myself if it is a better option or not. Many ways to skin a chicken, but usually one way is the most efficient.
I think it is a great way to learn how to play better patterns if you are not at a pro level, most of the time they make it look easy, definitely not this time.
