ok ok i read those answers sounds like they think 8ball is a centepede in short its the diamonds or spots on the table its so complicated i wont try to explain i can tell you the sights on a gun are for aiming it but could write a small book telling you how to adjust them for range and whatever there are dozens of books on the subject try to find one that deals with the 40---80--system it uses the diamond syst 100% and it works

There are actually multiple diamond systems. They are all made so you can predict the path of a ball rebound off a rail or multiple rails, making bank shots and kick shots (where the cue ball hits the rail first and then the object ball) more calculated rather than guessing. They use the "diamonds" or sights on a pool table, which is why they are called diamond systems. If you play on a UK table though, I hear they don't have diamonds. Below is an example of a diamond system.

The "Diamond System" is a system in billiards that is extremely hard to learn and deals with angles and geometry.
Any system for banking or kicking balls multiple rails which uses table diamonds as aiming references.

The "Diamond" System is something little girls learn from their mother's at a very early age. First they lead their victims to a very expensive jewelry store and pick out - say - a $50,000 ring set. When their fiance looks like his going to choke... she says very sweetly... "Maybe this is a little too high. Let's look at this one over here in the $40,000 range." The dude does another double-take on the price and she - being totally aware (naturally) - says sweetly, "No. This too may be a little out of your price range." (He's thinking this chick is going to be High Maintenance).
I could go on but it would take too much time and I have to go to work. So, in closing, she goes down & down & down to where she finally has him hooked. But not until she gets to where she wanted the price because... and I hate to say this in print... when the divorce comes... she'll have a pretty good stone to hock. Later.. and have a good day.

Maybe it is with its shape.
