11 second link above. What was he playing? The speed was fast. It didn't look like there was any spin on the CB. What do you all think?

This is my best guess:

I think he was trying to miss the 6-ball on the other side….I feel he misjudged the shot because of the Chalk Off….that stuff makes the cloth
play like a snooker cloth so the cue ball goes wider.

Yeah that's what I think, he was trying to, miss the 6 and didn't spin it enough.
Watch the clip, he pulls it, out the bag in the end. Great finish!

Are you guys saying miss the 6 on the right side (as viewing the picture)? What would have been the next shot then? A bank on the 4?

No, I think he was trying to miss the 6-ball on the other side.
