The perfect angle exists to pot the blue and cannon into the pink, thus disturbing the cluster of reds.

If played correctly and with sufficient pace the white remains in the centre of the table and the reds are promoted around the pink and black spot. If luck is on your side a red will be become available providing an opportunity for the break to continue.

The trick is to hit the pink ball absolutely full in the face, maximising the movement of the reds and subsequently avoiding the cue ball sliding off the pack towards the corner pockets.

This is far more difficult to achieve than it may sound. Only concentrated practice will allow you to regularly achieve your aim of potting the blue and then hitting the pink full in the face, with enough power to disturb the reds.
