Hi everyone ...recently I've been playing this guy who breaks the pack in between the 4th and 5th ball as opposed to the 1st and 2nd. The qball is positioned exactly the same spot for this break as it is for the traditional break. He hits it fairly hard and sends the qball all the way down table ( I wish I had a wei; maybe someone can decifer it for me and i can correct it if necessary)....anyway it's a killer break ..he doesnt sell out...he moves multiple balls to his side; more so than with the traditional break...he leaves you long...and puts you in a dangerous position to err since there are so many balls by his pocket. I've actually tried to break that way and honestly I haven't gotten it right yet...sometimes I hit them too soft and don't send the qball down table...sometimes I hit it with not enough spin and although the qball travels down table,I scratch...and sometimes I hit it too hard and send balls towards his hole But this guy hits the break perfect.
Anyway my question is....does anyone else play their break this way? Also I'm interested in some analysis of pros and cons.
Not sure if you guys talked about this in the past....if you have I apologize
XOXO
