An Ideal Double-Baulk

If your stroke play is equal to it, the best thing you can do with the situation shown in Fig. 37 is to run through the red into the top pocket. It is impossible to say where the red will stop after this shot. It may leave an easy red hazard, it may run into baulk, it may stop safe for you, but in better position for a safety shot. In any case, it is long odds that if you make the run-through you will be in a position to pot the white and leave a double baulk, which is scarcely feasible as the balls lie in Fig. 37. You might do it if you potted the white with a lot of screw and right-hand side on your ball, and cannoned on the red off the top cushion. Then, if you were lucky enough to move the red to advantage, you would be able to leave a double baulk and get the best of the deal.
