How did I make this bank?

57:48 if the link doesn't take you there. It looks like the 9 jumped over the CB missing the kiss. I'm not sure if that's what really happened or it's a video artifact. I mean the 9 def jumps, but whether it jumped OVER the CB IDK. Thoughts? I hit the shot with low inside to shorten it as much as I could. The cloth is 1 week old and still sliding.

When I shot it in person I didn't think anything of it. Just a shortened bank. When I saw it at home on video I noticed the 9 jumped.

It does look like it elevated over the edge of the cueball.

I would of cue'd it slightly higher transferring more inside to the obj. ball.... also, your striking the colored part of the 9 ball which picks up more chalk and allows whitey a better chance at inducing spin.

9 ball getting slightly airborne when it hit the rail would be my guess. I saw that live and couldn't believe he went for that two rail, Total sell out.

Nice shot! Got a smile out of me when you drilled it.

haha, thanks for watching. Yeah, he's usually fairly smart with the CB. I almost said to him "thanks partner" when I saw it was setting me up for a bank.

That's pretty cool Jumped the 9! That should be in a book somewhere.

How diid you make it?
You hit it good

 

[Bob Jewett]

Yup, over. Taking full advantage of that bouncy Diamond table.

How does the colored part of a ball pick up more chalk than the white?

I don’t want to ever hear you complain about a Diamond tables rails again after this.

Like the 8 ball.... it's more porous, chalk dust clings to it allot faster than a shiny surface.

sounds very strange that one of the 15 object balls is more porous and clingy... why would it be?

 

[Island Drive]

It's physics plain and simple.

care to elaborate? i've never heard of this

Ask Dr Dave.... FWIW a black metal hood of a car heats up more than a white car in the sun why?
If I'm wrong so be it, but I've done a slow cut on a ball coming across the contact point of a dark dirty solid colored ball and it will grab, tho not at a high speed. I've missed shots like this by 3'' when I was only 6'' from the side pocket trying to lay whitey on the short rail.

Because white reflects more frequencies of light, and black absorbs more, which makes it hotter.

 

[markjames]

adjusting spin based on the color of the contact point on the object ball?

i’m baffled

 

[iusedtoberich]

Quick 15 sec edit of the video, with a slow motion overlay and a frame freeze. I don't know if I'm convinced. I believe with the camera angle, if the 9 jumped in front of rather than over the CB, it would look about the same. In either case, I liked the shot, and it helped me win the set

 

[EL'nino]

That's crazy
I have no idea what just happened there.
