i'm confused, my strat is based on their being 2 balls left and giving myself best chance to sink both.
This is straight pool. You should look up the rules online, but basically, when there's only 1 ball left, you rack up the rest. You keep going trying to sink a certain number (125 in this game, as stated by OP).
Also, you must call all shots, even on a break. So the idea is to, when sinking the last ball, break off a few from the rack so that you can have easy shots on them, and you can also use those shots to break more off the rack.
