  • 2001 Bob Jewett

    2001 Bob Jewett

    Bob Jewett Combinations and Throw Some surprising insights into the world of "throw." In my column last April, I covered some of the details of throw. Here are two related and surprising experiments for you to try. As a reminder, a ball is said to be "thrown" when its path is not directly away from the spot where another ball contacts it. This deviation can be due to spin on the cue ball, or simply from the motion of the striking ball across the struck ball on a cut shot. Most beginners will shoot the shot in Diagram 1 wrong. The two object balls are frozen together and pointed about six inches away from the pocket. A novice will attempt to "cut" the second ball by playing to side A of the balls, perhaps expecting the first ball to move to the right before pushing the second ball towards the pocket. Of course, we all know that you have to hit the shot on side B, and let the friction between the balls drag the second ball towards the pocket. But how does the shot change if the balls aren't touching? With some separation, as in Diagram 2, there will be two effects, the throw from the sur- face friction, and the cut because the first ball does move to the side before it hits the second ball. Which effect will dominate? If the balls are separated by a hair's breadth, the shot hasn't changed much and you would expect nearly the same result as for frozen balls.

    Bob Jewett Making Contact How to Effectively Play a Ball Frozen to the Rail

    Bob Jewett Making Contact How to effectively play a ball frozen to the rail. For a beginner, one of the hardest rules to understand is the requirement to contact a rail. Stated briefly: No-Rail Foul: On a shot that does not pocket a ball, some ball must be driven to a rail after the cue ball contacts an object ball, or the shot is foul. The main reason to have this rule is to avoid repetitive simple safeties. At 14.1 or one-pocket, you can imagine the players repeatedly rolling the cue ball up to the nearly solid rack. At 8-ball and 9-ball, the chance for a full- rack stalemate is less likely, but consider the positions in Diagram 1, which could be from either game. In situation A, if no rail were required, the players could shoot softly to just touch the object ball. With a rail required, a more difficult shot would be needed — perhaps skimming the object ball and spinning the cue ball to the far end rail — and it is likely to leave something for the opponent. In situation B, which was covered here in October 1997, it is easy to get a rail contact. In 14.1 (and apparently no other game), another rule comes into play: when the object ball is within a ball of the cushion, each player is allowed two simple safes on it, after which the object ball is considered frozen to the rail. This brings us to another wrinkle, shot C. When the object ball is frozen to the rail, driving it deeper into the rail doesn't count as a cushion contact.

    Living Legends Challenge ike Sigel and Earl Strickland, without a doubt, are “living legends”. Although both players are Hall -of-Famers, Earl has been competing and practicing regularly while Mike has only practiced for this contest. As we all know, both Earl Mand Mike like to talk to anyone who will listen and that’s what they did. Both players were mic’d and were free to express themselves without limitations. The variety of six disciplines: 8-Ball, 9-Ball, 10-Ball, Straight Pool, Banks, and One- Pocket made each player a favorite in several disciplines. As a result, it was an exceptional match that’s worth seeing again. Aramith/SimonisResults for Arena, day John1 Bender and Bill Hendrixson commentating, Sandcastle Billiards, Edison, NJ 1.

The show was the chatter. Clearly Earl looked in form as Sigel struggled. Earl competes and practices regularly while Mike tried to get ready for this challenge match and it showed as Earl dominated the 8-Ball match. The 10-Ball match started out similarly, but a Strickland skid on game ball changed things including a swelling confidence from Sigel. It ended up a squeaker as Mike tied it up at 7-7 yet Earl closed it out at 8-7. Again, the player’s mic’d made it a blast. Straight Pool was the game that all thought Mike had his best chance at turning the tables on Earl.
