I might not shoot it, but I would take a long look at tickying the cue ball off the 10-2-14 so the cue ball falls toward the 5, maybe below or even behind the 5.

I also like kicking at the 5 one rail, playing to hit the 5 on the good side so that you have a chance of using the 5 as a blocker for the two balls by your pocket.

Can he see the full-ball on the 15 (past the 13)?

If yes, I would cut the 15 into the 3 (banking the 3 back into the bottom of the stack) & ducking the CB behind the 5.

If not, I'd look to live another day & do the 3-rail kick behind the 5.

I think I might shoot the 15 through the donut hole and billiard the cue ball 2 rails off the end rail behind the 5 and send the cue ball up by the side pocket.

Might be able to combo the purple stripe ball into his pocket,if he could the cue ball looks like it would go straight in the stack.Looks good from my house.

This could be an idea.

Ace - That doesn't defend your pocket though, leaving him several options to clear your hole.

I like Mosconiac's shot, myself - but me actually pulling it off is another matter entirely. heh

if you could watch it in real time it was a thing of beauty . he hit the 14 rather full so the cue ball sort of slowly glided all the way to nestle behind the 5.what speed control.
i know im getting alittle carried away but skill like that is like seeing a masterpeiece
he left shannon like this
