Intermediate number: 2.4 + 3.6 = 6Start: 2.4Arrival: 6Aim: 3.6Arrival 6. None of the nearest whole lines (3 from 3, 4 from 4) passes through the cue ball; when the cue is rotated in a 1-to-2 ratio, the line passes through start 2.4 and aim 3.6.
Small number: 4 + 2 = 6Start: 4Arrival: 6Aim: 2Aim 2 (½ diamond from the corner). Small numbers tend to run long, so the spin has been increased a little.
Large number: 1 + 6 = 7Start: 1Arrival: 7Aim: 6Aim 6 (2½ diamonds). Large numbers tend to come up short; reduce the spin or increase the speed a little.
