Kyle Saunders' 1st place shot

By Chef Anton

Welcome back to Chef Anton's Magical Menu of Pool Ball Wizardry. I am sure it has been a long month with eager anticipation, but now it is time to announce the grand-prize winner of Chef Anton's Original Trick Shot/Betcha Contest.

Yes, you can feel the anticipation. Wrestlemania XVII is around the corner and the big question is not will the Rock retain the title. It is not will Stone Cold Steve Austin turn heel. The big question is…who is the winner of Chef Anton's Original Trick Shot/Betcha Contest 2000. Bragging rights go to Kyle Saunders of Glasgow, KY. Here is the award-winning shot as described by the creator himself.

"Position the balls as diagrammed, making sure all of the balls are frozen and to allow for the throw. Jump the cue ball over the 4 balls. It will strike the end rail and then bounce back and split the one and two balls. This will send the one and two into the side pockets and then the three and four balls into the corner pockets." Wow. Now that is a creative shot. It is a little touchy to shoot, but once it is set-up correctly, you should make it 3 times out of 5. That is good enough odds for me.

Well, there it is. Congratulations once again to Kyle Saunders. For his efforts, Kyle will receive an autographed copy of my award-winning trick shot video entitled Chef Anton's Magical Menu of Pool Ball Wizardry. Be sure and keep your entries coming…next year's contest is only 1 year away.

Thanks and Bon Appetit.

SEND A BETCHA OR AN ORIGINAL TRICK SHOT AND WIN A FREE VIDEO

I need your help. I am in search of learning every "betcha" in existence. For example, the oldest pool betcha known to man is where the three ball are balanced on the end rail in a pyramid configuration, and you bet your mark you can hit the other two balls first. This is exactly what I am interested in finding.

So if you know any "grifts", even if they do not apply to pool, send it to me immediately. I will give an autographed video for every "betcha" sent to me that I have not seen before. If you are not sure if I have seen it or not, send it anyway. Please e-mail me at chefantons@aol.com or mail your entries to:
