What's Your Best Shot From Here?

There's only one guaranteed way to win the rack. Play the route Bill and I said. Every other option requires a great deal of luck in order to even see the 3. You can pick the brains of lesser skilled players all you want, but there is only one option for this layout that leads to a guaranteed win. Sure you can play other routes to show off, but if you want to win. Only one choice.

Really, only one way? Seems like close minded thinking to me. You can say that the only way I could ever win the rack is your way even if I played it my way by hitting the 2 a couple rails and freezing you to the backside of the 9? You must be clairvoyant if you know that every way I could freeze you to the 9 would leave you with a guaranteed kick on the 2 and run out of the game. Remind me to never play you but also remind me to ask you for the lottery numbers for the night!

I'm pretty sure we could do a round robin with everyone who posted in this thread and Hits 'em Hard, with all his infinite wisdom and unmatched pool knowledge, wouldn't win, place, or show!

9 er? What the heck is that?

All due respect Bill but you may be overthinking it. Kind of like how you were shooting at the wrong pocket on 1pocket.org..

Niner....is a Fun way of saying nine ball:

BI has thee foothold in one hole, I too have it in nine ball. Kimmer woulda stuck ya like a pig with that shot, and made the bank, then put a couple more B&R's on ya then stick ya good and get BIH. Missing Lock/Down opportunities such as this win/lose matches. Great players Always put packages on ya for almost any error.

I play the 2 and come down table to play safe with 3. You can play vs top shot and put the CB up against the back of the nearby object ball.

Am I the only one that likes going inside english 2 rails to the 3 here? It is near impossible to hook yourself and you will have a full look at the 3 with quite a few safety options depending on the angle you end up with.

I like the low r) draw to make the 2 in the corner at about 97 mph. Coming 4 rails to land near bottom rail, then plan to play safe off the 3, sticking cb to the 6

If I am hittin balls accurately, I might go 1 rail straight up/ down table and try to break out the 3/6, but that prob has a greater probability of leaving me kicking at the 3, as it does continuing my run.

Very funny stuff here and I suspect you're trying to entice some moron into pointing out that the 6 is not on the table? Well, I'm that moron:grin::wink:.
