today I’m going to try and run through a rack and talk through my thought process as I go through it and because understanding that thought process and order to take balls in and when to play cannons it’s actually a great skill and can level up your game h a little bit different today I’m going to do it on spots and Stripes because half of my subscriber base is from the US so I appreciate all you guys tuning [Music] in oh does that count as a golden break straight away I felt a difference with how there those balls are breaking so uh this could be [Applause] [Music] interesting I never get one never mind two in a row H I like these balls we should play um we should play Golden break and if I was really smart I would just stop the video there and say that’s how you run a rack right so the first thing you do when you come to the table see if you’ve got a a pot on and I’ve got a pot on the stripes here and on the dot so let’s see what problems are on the table uh for the stripes those two are a bit of a problem you could make a plant other than that well I mean that blocks a pocket for certainly for that ball I can take the the green one off the four which would open it up it might make the 15 a little bit more difficult but we’ve got an option there for the dots uh those two there are a bit of a problem the seven and the six they go in there the seven especially would be quite a precise positional shot and the three is a little bit dis jointed it’s a little bit out the way but it does go uh so I think there’s probably a bit more work to do with the stripes so I might take the the Dots here and I might tackle the problem straight away so if I can get this is quite a tricky positional shot but I can put that and if I can get a full ball contact into there I will end up on that ball there and what I don’t want to do is slide off it CU ball down there into no man’s land or that runs into the black and ties up the black so or even if I get into it too much and the Q ball Comes This Way Again I’m in no man’s land so it’s quite a precise positional shot to start off with but we judged it well oh I did not see that coming so this three ball now doesn’t go clean it will go in off this knuckle but that means we can’t hit that hard so we need to bear that in mind I actually played that really well to get in this shot in fact too well because what I would have liked to have done is have a little bit of an angle in that just to move the Cub ball into there for the seven I’m dead straighten it so I don’t have that angle so now we need to work something out if I brought the cube all straight back I’ve got a pop it’s then tricky to finish those two I leave the cube all there I can bring the cube B back to here for that one and It’s tricky to get on that one may be better to play for the three ball just now see as I have to drop it in seven seven will drop in that middle I mean it’s quite a tight angle but it will drop in the middle so I do have that so if I run the cube through to about here and just drop this in I can play for the seven Now My worry is it is slightly off straight I might brush the seven on the way past which makes it unportable in there but if that happens I can still drop this in and play for the two up to there I can force an angle might be better to try and force this angle to leave my cind this seven just now cuz I’m going to try and force a c ball into this position now if I don’t get it right I should still have the two so I should still have options it’s about options I always preach about giving yourself options so I’m going to take a little bit of a risk here but leave myself an option so I’ve it’s calculated I’ve got it the difficulty now is connecting the last three I can put the seven but the Q Ball’s coming down that way which means when I put the two the Q Ball’s going that way away from the B and now the eight ball won’t drop in the middle so I need to work something out let’s try another our calculated risk you know this could make it a little bit more interesting I can po this with a little bit of draw we bring the Q ball into here if I put left hand spin on it it’ll move the Q ball to the right I could cannon that three ball over there I’m going to take that on because if I don’t get it there might be a chance I’ll leave a shot of the two and if it comes off it looks pretty cool like I said looks pretty cool hope I don’t mess it up now cuz I I could I could leave myself a short I’m fairly straight on this I can leave myself a definite long pot on this blue but it might be better to try and get straight on it to make the black ball easier fortunately the 10 is slightly in the way can I get past it yes pass it oh perfect it’s calculated and it’s come off still slightly wrong side of so I’m going to end up here but it’s a much easier shot gives myself a good chance and this is where I’m not used to the balls so the heavier balls it was harder for that Q ball to force through I mean I should have been here H but I should still po this yay
