Overcoming "Cover" and "Kiss"

A "Bread and Butter" Cannon

A Difficult Positional Cannon

My next shot reveals a possibility rather than even a probability. It is an all-round cannon which may be considered more of an exhibition shot than anything else. Still it has its uses in serious billiards, as it teaches something which may be the one thing you want to know to keep a badly-needed break on the move. Figure 74 shows how the balls are placed. The cue-ball is almost touching the red, the red is touching the white, a thing you must be careful about when setting the shot up. You score by playing a fine, sharp shot off the red, using a little running side, and striking your ball with freedom enough to send it completely round the table, as shown by the dotted line in my diagram. While your ball is sprinting round the table, the white is kissed slowly along the top cushion, and, with a little luck, your ball and the white will meet at the point shown by a cross in my diagram.

There are sundry variations of this particular kind of shot playable, and a possibility of scoring something of the kind is always worth looking for when the balls cover badly against a cushion, and the two object-balls are touching.
