Truman Hogue is the master of this shot, but his version goes in at 100 miles per hour.

Hi , I like your Bank site, I not sure how I found your site but I did. I grew up in Chicago and was around alot of Mexican pool players that played last pocket 8-Ball.. At the time I hated it because I just wantted to run out. Sometimes I would loose, but I started banking much better and would hold the table for hours. Then I would get into 8-Ball tournaments and would sometimes play people who would be about a 3 or 4 APA Speed and I would bank every Ball and see if I could still win..

I've played a few games of 8-ball where I have to bank everything and my opponent doesn't. I haven't had much luck though unless my opponent really sucks. An APA 3 or 4 would probably win 90% of those games against me.

I tried this shot 15 times. I made on the the third try and couldn't make it again. Three times the cb got in the way or I may have made it. Interesting shot. I'll keep trying it.

This shot just makes me sick when it goes in. It really doesn't look possible to me.
