I've posted this shot before, so some of you may remember it. It's my favorite trick shot, and it is in the repertoire of the great Tom Rossman. The game is eight ball, and, in each case, you just made your last solid, but got terrible on the eight, the cue ball being frozen to the eight and to the rail.

In the top table, you can play a well known timing shot to make the eight in the side. Sweet shot.

In the lower table, however, you've got big, big problems. Even if you examine the table at length, there does not appear to be any possible shot on the eight, but Tom Rossman plays a jump-timing shot to jump over the twelve and pocket the eight in the side as in the first layout. Absolutely incredible!

Or I have seen Tom do it a third version. He shooters straight at the 8 and it goes in.


The 8 has a weight on one side of it. :p
