In this billiard trick shot, Vincent Facquet, the trick shots champion, has to pocket one ball, the central ball in of a group of 7 balls gathered together. To make this trick shot even more challenging, the group of balls is covered with a tissue, which inspires the name of the billiard trick shot.
Trick shot artists often use different objects to increase the level of complexity and challenge themselves. The objects used in billiard trick shots can be billiards equipment such as cue sticks (as you can see at the Up and Down trick shot), racks (see The Great Escape trick for an example) or unrelated objects such as bottles, glasses, or in this particular billiard trick shot – a tissue.
