Here's a shot that I used to practice in case it ever came up. Easier on some tables than others. It's pretty sweet when it works and you look like an idiot when it does not. Fortunately for me, it never once came up in a game in my life. You have pocket 'A' and need them both. Can you get out from here?

OPS,

If you want to see the shot, go to this: <1 l 2> on the right end of the lower rail. It's the page up-page down thingy. Put your cursor arrow on the 2 and left-click. It advances the page so you can see the next layout. You can also go backwards by clicking on the other side.

I think I saw this shot in Brynes stroke shots or some book that had that... or maybe it was prop bet we had in the pool hall. I could never quite get there. I think I was giving myself a little more room between the cueball and object ball to get going though.

I hear what your saying though, it's a sweet shot that looks pretty impressive when you pull it off though.:D

If your a player getting weight and someone sees you pull it off, it's a little harder to convince them to give you weight.

Just stop your ball, walk to the other side of the table, and shoot the remaining ball into the pocket "A" (as shown on page 2).

Come on Dennis ! Do you think a grade 'B' nit like me isn't going to spot such subtrefuge?

Hey Guy's,

The Rust Belt Lunatic forgot to show his usual result, when he practices this shot, so I shall show it for him..:eek:

WEI tables are somewhat lacking, in that there is no floor to show the cue ball winding up on....also, there is no "broken in half stick" to show the attemptees frustration

KOUD,

I was having trouble curving the line to the top pocket so I relabeled the bottom pocket and moved the 14 ball also. I ended up not liking the lower pocket either and moved everything back to the original layout that I started with. I had 6 or 7 pages in the WEI table and I thought I had deleted the correct ones and saved the two I wanted. I previewed it before posting it. I did not spot the 'A' by the bottom pocket. Oh well, you can't do everything right all of the time.:eek:

Sand Belt Lunatic,

How do you ever expect to learn how to post a picture if you can't even post a WEI table? Even the Ghost does it now or didn't you notice? It would take you 15 more seconds to post the table instead of the link to it.

And I have never once in life got frustrated on a pool table. Never banged my stick on anything or even wanted to. That's for losers.

For everyone's convenience here is the table from SBL.

George,

If you are putting your cursor arrow on the pencil that's next to the ? on the lower rail, right end and waiting for "Edit <A>" to appear before left-clicking and it's still not working, then I do not know what may be wrong. Is the WEI table coming up at all George?

Is there a http//cuetable.com... link down at the bottom of your monitor? Sometimes the WEI table opens there and not onscreen and then you maximize it.

I don't know....I will keep trying.....maybe something will break through.

Thanks

lll,

That's very nice of you to say Larry, especially after I told Dick that if I was Sec. of State I'd only be two bullets away from the White House. But I'm sure that you and Freddy know that I wouldn't whack youse guys.

George,

Do you see a "http://cuetable.com..." link at the bottom of your monitor? If so, click on it and maximize the WEI table.

Or click on the WEI link at the top and put the balls in the same spot as the layout you're trying to edit ( old fashioned way.)

Dick,

The pencil that you need to click on is at the top right of the area where you type your posts. It is a yellow pencil with eraser with a circle mostly around it. If you put your cursor arrow on it, it will show "Wrap [cuetable]tags around selected text" That's the pencil you need to click on to post your table.

[cuetable] [cuetable] This is what comes up after you click it. There will be a blinking vertical line between the brackets. This is where you put your cursor arrow(on top of the blinking line) and right-click to paste the WEI table. The WEI table that you have already "copied the URL" of.

P.S. Post a WEI table and then we'll post a pic. Think of all the fun you can have with the Ghost.
