It was able to attract the "Austrian Championships in Pool Billard".
I attended yesterdays opening ceremonies, crowned after many speeches by the apperance of Mr. Mike Massey, 9 times World Champion, showing a series of unbelievable "trick-shots".
It is true that some of them were simply the way the balls were set up, so that even an amateur, hitting the indicated ball with his/her cue ball would achieve the pre-programmed result.
But then, Mr. Massey received roaring applause by executing some "masse-shots" which demonstrated his still remarkable skill.
It was an entertaining two hours... if you are interested in the slightest in Pool-Billard.
Mr. Mike Massey is lining up for the famous
"Chatanooga Choo-Choo" shot.
Mike explaining in his humerous way,
with a Southern Drawl, one of his set-up shots.
having pocketed all but three balls, the cue ball
finally strikes the rack (at #4 hole),
which,in turn, sinks the remaining three balls.
The equally famous "machine gun" shot.
Using the 'masse' technique, holding the que almost vertically, Mike strikes the que-ball which rartles all balls lined up and finally sinks the 15 ball.
