My Idol, Willie Mosconi used to do this shot and WOW the audience. Ive Gotten pretty good with this shot and people love it when i tell them im going to "Make the one ball (yellow ball) 2 rails and into the side pocket off the break!" and usually they say "Yeah right!" but then i make it and they can't believe it! ha ha.. try it sometime...
this was the opening break shot james coburn used in the movie "the baltimore bullet" when he meets omar sharif in the climatic show down.
for people who like movies about pool it is a must see.

Willie Mosconi has been an idol of mine as well and in fact, it was when I 1st read about him at 5/6 years old that I started learning to shoot Straight Pool and 9Ball.
Very nicely done indeed and hopefully if there's gonna be a WSPC this year, I'll be able to come over and enter the qualifiers, that would be sweet.
Keep up the cool vids and you gotta new subscriber. Willie
P.S. When you're next on AZB forums, give me a hollar, my username on there is "TheWizard".

@hxp28607 umm yes it does, its a strait pool break and a very effective one, just like banking one of the corner balls .

awesome trick shot. but it doesn't really leave the cue ball in a desirable position to use effectively in an actual game
