...Obviously he needed a bit of luck but I think he meant it!

My friend showed me this quite recently.
Like you say, it was a great shot and it was intentional .... but he needed an element of luck :)

I think he gets credit against the "luck" factor for having seen that the shot could even be on. I was going to say initially that it might have been desperation, and that he might have intended it to catch the red on the way up, but, no:

// "It was absolutely purposeful," [Shaun Murphy] insisted. "I had an idea the cue ball could rattle, it could only shoot the cue ball up that way and I knew if it went up to the top cushion it would have that spin on it and it might check back up and come back for the red. It looked outrageous but I did play it... and I got it!" //

Looks amazing, anyway, nice to be reminded of it :)

Brilliant shot! As Clare said, he gets kudos just for seeing it was possible, let alone making it. Brought a smile to my face :-)

The late great Hurricane used to regularly use the pocket wobble, usually getting out of snookers.
