Please. Safety is beyond foolish, given the layout.
Lol. For me or you or for many others here, you're right -- it's not a difficult out. But for others it might be a very difficult layout.
As someone who enjoys winning, I like when a weaker opponent thinks they can always clear off those last few balls, especially with a tricky or touchy layout. All I'm saying is that players of that caliber should learn not to sell out when other options are available.
If I'm playing a 400-500 Fargo player, and they're facing this particular situation, I'm hoping they go for the runout. Chances are they'll leave me the last 2 or 3 balls for the game. But if they play smart, realizing they probably can't run out, and so they plant the cb behind the 7 and 9 and send the 6 to the far end rail....well, I won't like that. Lol.
Fact is, if a player wants to win more often, they should always play within their comfort zone, avoiding low percentage shots or opportunities that are unlikely to end well. They'll find themselves winning more often.
