These trick shots are the perfect introduction to the trick shot world. Here’s what you’ll learn:

Three Beers: Also known as the triangle shot. A quick little hustle using a pool ball and a triangle to create a billiard brain teaser of how to shoot a ball trapped in a triangle into a pocket.

Two Sticks: Jump the cue ball over one pool cue, and cause it to make another ball jump over another pool cue and into a pocket. Here Chef will teach you how to make a legal jump shot just like a professional pool player.

Trapped: Chef used this actual shot to win the California State 8-Ball Championships. You’ll learn how to jump a cue ball off a rail and outside a ring of other balls to get the selected ball to sink into the corner pocket.

Watermelon Seed: This hustle sets up a simple wager. Whoever can roll their ball the farthest across the table with one hand gets free drinks from everyone else. The secret is deceptively simple and works every time.

Dime In Shot Glass: Using just a pool ball you’ll learn how to hop a dime off a rail and into a shot glass.

Grifter’s Dream: A feature in Chef’s show for years, under impossible conditions you sink an 8-Ball into the corner pocket even though it’s guarded by a ring of balls and a pool cue.

As a bonus you’ll also get the workings behind Chef’s Professional Card Stab routine as seen on Penn & Teller: Fool Us. This amazing routine allows you to perform a trick shot, and end up with a signed playing card impaled on the end of a borrowed pool cue.

Shot live on location in an actual pool hall, you’ll learn not just actual trick shots you can do on any neighborhood pool table but also an incredible card trick. The tricks you learn range from the practically self-working to the more challenging tricks that require some practice. If you’ve ever wanted to get into pool ball wizardry, Cue’d up is the perfect shot.
