NV B.50 - Using your knuckles to prevent a double hit

[GetMeThere1]

Aha! Very interesting and useful. I've never seen a pro in a match do this. I wonder if they know about it, or if they have ever used it. Most pros in such a situation seem to immediately retreat to elevating the cue to try to avoid a double hit.

The opportunity or necessity doesn't come up very much.

I think it is more of a "proposition" type of shot.

Quite effective... never thought of doing it that way...

It can hurt, but it works.
