I need three balls, and I have pocket A. My opponent needs six. I have all the balls gathered in my area, (random arrangement) but I don't have a good offensive shot. I can feather the 5 ball and leave the cue ball in the upper left corner, but that's too passive and I don't want to force my man to take a desperate shot, as it could come out badly for me.
I think I want to kick two rails out of the upper left corner and return to move a ball or two nearer my pocket, but what is the best way? Should I go short rail first and use running english, or hit the long rail first, using holding english? Which offers better control? Any other possibilities?
