Got this message today:

On your newest video...did you notice the extra practice strokes before the miss at the end...looks like the money ball was treated differently in the setup. I hate it when that happens.

Watched the "foiled again" video again. You're absolutely right - I took an extra practice stroke.

Looks to me like I did it (subconsciously) to try to convince myself that I was lined up correctly when I wasn't. You can tell that I wasn't lined up correctly because I missed the shot by 73 miles.

Also, the stupid cueball had just rolled four feet further than I'd expected it to. I was actually planning to bank that last ball cross-corner. So that may have thrown me off a little too. I should have taken more time before I bent over the shot.

Anyway, thanks for pointing that out!
