(AVI format) This 13 minute video provides extensive examples on how to cheat the pocket in order to move the cue ball into position for the next shot.

The various cue ball spins include 12:00, 1:30, 10:30, and 6:00. This information can be used to expand your options when faced with a ball in the jaws of a pocket and a half-diamond away.

On our APA team, Allan sometimes coaches me on how to shoot a shot to get shape. (I think it was my ignorance that made him create this video.) Anyway - there's some really good stuff here.
