Have a few old break shots. Maybe someone would like to discuss what to shoot. It was my shot coming up. I don't have the results, but I remember failing miserably.:p

wonderfully inept

How about hitting the 13 full which would/could freeze you to the 2 and send the 13 caroming off the 11 and 5 over towards your pocket?

What's your pocket? How did the cue ball get to the middle of the table?

Frank, it's the shot after the break. A lot of the guys I play have begin breaking them like I do, I don't always worry about getting the CB on the rail I just don't want the corner ball coming out by my opponents pocket.

PS, If I haven't made myself clear I'm facing my opponents pocket.:confused:

Come on Rod, the first shot after the break? Everybody on this site makes a ball after the break and then runs out. Didn't you see this shot? The 11 ball's deader than Kelso's nuts, how could you miss that?

My first thought would be to play the combo bank, with top left to spin the cue ball into that corner quadrant by my opponent's pocket.

The 13, 11, 4 gives you like a foot wide spot you can two rail kick into and not scratch leaving him on his side. Thats the first thing I see...

For those uncomfortable with that I would say slide off the 14 and put his A-- on the back side of those balls...

That's another shot I didn't see.

I thought about this one, but I'm usually more aggressive on the first shot.:)
Wish I hadn't been.:(
