Sporty 8b shot........................

That's called thinking outside the box! And he makes it look easy. Fifty years of playing bar table Eight ball and I never thought of that. Feeling pretty stupid right now.
 
Plus, according to their rules, it's a foul to pocket an opponent's ball if you don't pocket your own as well. If he missed his opponent would have had two shots.

Those rules (crappy, imho) makes it a bad risk, then.

It's a fun shot, for sure. It doesn't come up that often so wth, go for it.

I'll give that higher billing than the Efren 'Z-shot' miracle.

Nice to see someone swing at what most would consider a circus shot with such intent. Zero doubt that man knew exactly what he was doing.

Well done

I agree that the rules are a little funky...plus that little cue ball is hard to follow and makes it harder to aim the object ball to the pocket, but I always say to myself that if I'm playing by the same rules as my opponent, then game on.

Only in blackball rules. Potting both balls would be classed as a foul under world rules. But I do see where you're coming from. Blackball rules would be the general standard for competitive play.
