Hi, I'm Andy "the Magic Man" Segal. I'm here at Willow Billiards in Hoboken, New Jersey.
Doing some trick shots and pool instruction. So if you're ready, let's get started. This
is another shot made famous by the movie The Hustler. It was done in the movie, it was
done by both Jackie Gleason and Paul Newman but it was really done by a great pool player
by the name of Willie Mosconi. The set up is you have the cue ball and the one ball
frozen or a little gap right here. The five ball out of the way up here. I'm gonna shoot
the cue ball with a masse stroke. The cue ball is gonna go up, turn around, come back
and make the five in. Again I have my cloth, my little scrap piece of cloth to protect
the felt. There we go. And
that's the shot from the movie The Hustler.
