Don't bother asking what the score is or which pocket is yours.

I would do Danny D's 4 rail kick into the 10 ball or is that the 12 ball (hell he's
been commentating forever and can't get the balls right) and then maybe,
just maybe he would quit wasting accustats disc space talking about it.

Soft kick to the end rail to bump the 12 and get a rail. Its not developing anything, but without knowing which pocket is whos, thats a safe shot.

Never mind what would I do. I would like to know how all the balls got like this. Is he playing Nick Varner?
 
I would smash them because I don't have the patience nor inclination to spend 20+ mins of my life hiding balls. And Beer!
 
I hate one pocket...I'd just slam 'em! The odds of making at least one in your pocket is pretty good and if you make one, then they are all open and it's on you then.

If you miss...look at your tip and play like you miscued, like everybody else does.
 
What would I do? I'd change that shirt. It's a little drab and the horizontal stripes aren't flattering.
 
For those who weren't there, the match is between John Brumback and Stephen Cohan, the French champion who won the 14.1 a few years ago. The table was perfectly level. This is just the way the game went...many kick and bumps, back to back. Brumback won the game btw. :D Morra was playing Hennessee in the background (Hennesee beat Bustamante on the tv table, after being down 2-0 in the prior match).

If my hole is across corner.. Not in picture.
I can't tell if the green ball is froze... If it is it has a good eye across corner putting the CB in a parking spot so my opponent has no shot at his hole or mine with a ball near my hole. If I can make it I'll play the CB for another nudge towRds my hole.


If my pocket is in the picture.

Pocket the red/3 ball in side pocket and park whitey near his hole on foot rail or try to use the spotted ball as a blocker to the pack but not leaving a twist back bank off the long rail.

Even Morra looks confused.

Thanks for rotating it!

I've seen a million games of pro one pocket at the DCC. But never seen anything quite like this. At several times in this game, every ball on the table was in this cluster.

What would I do? Beer.

Freddie <~~~ and we did
 
I think I'd ask my opponent if we could just flip a coin to determine the winner (but the winner has to buy the beer).
 
if my pocket is the one out of the picture, i'd probably try to play one rail behind the ball at the top of the stack that's away from the rail a bit to push it towards my hole and try to slide the cue down amongst the stack. even if i foul, but still get the cue in the stack, it seems like a decent shot. i've got two balls in play (after the one spots) and hopefully one over by my pocket. he'd have no shot at his. semi-risky shot, but not too bad since the odds of selling out many balls here isn't too high.
