The Pool Hustler's Handbook
Shot #11
Out of Circle
Proposition: With the cueball starting outside of the circle, knock the quarter and the 8-ball out of the circle.
Difficulty Rating: 3
Origin:
Unknown. This is one of those classics that have been passed down over the generations of hustlers. I wonder how many “marks” have been taken with this one. It was first shown to me by my mentor Frank “the Barber” Almanza in 1985.
Set-Up:
Set the 8-ball on the foot spot. Using a piece of billiard chalk, draw a circle around the 8-ball approximately two feet in diameter. Balance a quarter on top of the 8-ball.
