Don't make me get out the VP4...

I'm confused by the action off the short rail on option three. Which was my first choice.

5 o'clock = 'inside' on this shot and the CB should spin toward the long rail after short rail contact, not away from it.

I'm hoping I'm just having a senior moment here, and that my grasp of pool physics hasn't been wrong all these years...lol

the speed shane hit it
would fight the inside spin
how much 5 oclock when it got to the head rail would also play a role
last if you look closely it seems to me the angle in/angle out would also fight the reverse english
take all the above and thats why it "held/shortened " of the head rail but didnt turn back to the long rail

This rack is a perfect reminder of how important it is to stay on the right side of the ball. And of just how screwed you can get with a couple inches of being on the wrong side. The angle here lays awkward for all the traditional recovery routes especially with the potential to get behind the ten ball.

Shane got careless on the 6 ball just like so many of us do frequently.

The road to hell is paved with good intentions.

It's a matter of degree. Without any inside it would rebound even more away from the long rail (because of the "transferred" spin from hitting the OB). It would take more inside spin to rebound toward the long rail.
