Obviously I could use some advice. 
I would probably try to roll the 2 in gently and leave the rock near the headrail. If I miss pocketing the 2 it's still a good shot.androd said:What would you've done.
I need one and was left like this. I'm pocket A It's my shot B is the CB.
Rod.
..I'm not kicking at the 2 because shooting off the rail from 8 feet away you could easily kick it just a little bit bad and give him a chance to cut the 2 in, while also playing 2-rail zig-zag shape to get on the cross-corner bank on the 5, and now you just lost the game...

And I'm not shooting the 2 in either, and daring him to slow-roll the spotted 2 in, and then banking the 5 to win the game...
When good players are given these kind of opportunities, they will very often rise to the occasion and make you pay...
What I would do here is softly cut the 2 ball to the left as my wei diagram shows...now I've positioned the 2 where it banks into my pocket, and he has a big problem trying to remove the 5ball without leaving me a winning straight back bank on the 5.

At present, I am watching him "jump" three feet off the floor, every time he shoots..
...Cruel twist of fate, I was not able to relieve him of his $$$$ that year...Woulda been like taking candy from this guy..
...you know they have airplanes that fly from Chicago to Phoenix,,, so my out of stroke, operation recoverin', 3 foot jumpin', tremblin' self could be on a plane right-quick if you'd still like to relieve me of a couple 'tousand' of my $$$...... >>>

So just say the word, and you'll be shakin' so bad you won't be able to hit the end rail after you look out the window of your 'double-wide' out there in the desert and see this sight...

..jeez, don't you know when somebody is joking around.....I've had that ghost in the desert pic for about a year and had to find a way to finally use it...
I'll roll that 2 in and leave it at least until he hurts me three or maybe four times. I never change my strategy because some so-called good player made a stupid shot on someone elses cash and beat me. He's got to repeat it several times before I stop leaving it.One Pocket Ghost said:
