This shot can be quite tricky on slow tables or on new cloth. First the setup: ob is at the 1-1 diamond, cueball and OB center line aimed towards the right point of the pocket. Basically the spin has to do the work, but since u hit such a big part of the ob (almost straight in) u have to hit it hard too. So, hit hard at 1:30. If u hit the short rail first (like yow did in his vid, but u dont make the ball) try using less right. If u hit the long rail try hitting lower or with more spin.
Ps: when u aim u have to compensate for the deflection.
Thats all i can say abt it. Good luck and keep practicing.

when u shoot hard using side spin the cueball doesnt go in a straight line (it deflects), so if u use right hand english it will go to the left so when aiming u need to compensate for that.
