Chapter 181 Survival in a desperate situation
At the beginning of the third game, Alexander still used a standard n-shaped tee shot. After the white ball returned to the teeing area, the distribution of the red balls underneath was similar to that in the first game, with only one red ball leaving the ball pile.
Although it was still possible to attack at this time, Lingzhi knew very well that his long position was poor, so he did not try to be reckless, but calmly hit the red ball up, while the white ball sank to the bottom for defense.
After that, the two of them fought for a while around the red ball. Neither one wanted to open the pile of red balls and make a wedding dress for their opponent.
After guarding for a while, Ling Zhi saw the opportunity, knocked down the red ball again, and guarded the white ball.
But this time, Lingzhi's defensive luck was not very good. After the red ball came down, it hit the corner of the left bottom pocket.
Under normal circumstances, the red ball will bounce to the edge of the bag when it hits the corner of the bag. However, this red ball may have hit the corner of the bag quite deeply. After hitting the corner of the bag several times, it was relieved of a lot of force. In the end, it bounced directly to the edge of the bag.
Stopped at the mouth of the bag!
Fortunately, the white ball sticks closely to the top. If you don't look at the position of the red ball, this is an excellent defensive shot. It's a pity that there is no if.
Alexander directly aimed at the lipstick ball and hit the red ball with all his strength!
Originally, he wanted to take the opportunity to use some low shots to break up the pile of red balls, but because the white ball was too far away from the target ball, the low shot effect was not effective. In addition, the position where the red ball was hit was too thin, so the white ball and the ball were
The pile passed by and failed to blow up the pile of balls.
Seeing that Alexander failed to achieve his goal, Ling Zhi breathed a sigh of relief.
But what Lexus cares more about is another thing:
The white ball was hit so hard that it jumped!
Originally, if you want to hit a low shot with the white ball stuck, you have to raise the club tail to hit the ball, so it is not unusual for the white ball to jump.
Ling Zhi took advantage of this incident to see Alexander putting his left arm across the edge of the library, which made Ling Zhi's heart skip a beat!
In the first two games, he was a little absent-minded, brooding over his various mistakes. But now that he relaxed his mind a little, he noticed that Alexander put the club on his arm to play, wouldn't it be very difficult for him to hit the ball?
Normally, with a handstand, players can adjust the initial height of the club head at will, which is helpful for players to hit high and low shots.
But Alexander did not have a handstand, and his arms were very thick. When the club was placed on his arm, the initial position of the club head was even higher than the height of a ball!
So whether he is playing a high score or a low score, Alexander can easily achieve the effect of hitting the stick.
And if the arm is resting on the edge of the library to hit the relatively close-fitting white ball, the initial position of the club head will be higher!
When the white ball is close to the edge, most people usually place the club directly on the edge of the library, allowing the club to pass through the gap between the two fingers, thereby ensuring a smooth swing.
But Alexander didn't have a left hand, so he couldn't use his fingers to fix the direction of the club like ordinary people, so he could only use the sunken flesh on his arm to slightly fix it, but in this way, the initial position of the club head would be higher.
Too many balls.
After realizing this, Lingzhi thought about the first two games again, and it seemed that he did not find any signs that Alexander used pole skills frequently.
He couldn't help but feel a little annoyed, complaining that he didn't notice such details until now!
But it's not too late, maybe we can make a plan based on Alexander's characteristics.
So next, the two started a back-and-forth defensive battle.
...
For Alexander, the first two games today seemed to be too smooth. He did not feel that the Chinese boy in front of him posed any threat to him.
At the beginning of the third game, he defended himself for a while. Well, during this period, the Chinese boy's defensive level was pretty good, but unfortunately, he was not afraid of defending.
Because of his physical condition, he will never be as good as able-bodied people on the offensive end, and he is very self-aware of this.
So if you want to defend, I will definitely accompany you until...
Huh? What's going on? The Chinese boy is aiming at the pile of red balls again? He wants to break the jar again?
Alexander was slightly confused, but he didn't think much about it. If this was the case, then it would be just right. He could win this game easily and save a lot of energy.
However, the next moment, Alexander saw Lingzhi knocking the red balls apart and controlling the white ball to the lower left of the black ball, close to the base. It turned out that Lingzhi wanted to sink to the bottom to defend!
Although Lingzhi's defense was not the best, the white ball was not close to the edge of the library, and the red ball was still in the pocket for attack. However, he had to put his left arm on the edge of the library before he could hit it!
Now there is some trouble. The ball shape on the table has been broken up by Lexus. It is no longer easy to stick to a ball in the middle of the table to defend, because even if you stick to one ball, other red balls will still be missed.
So it seems that the only way left is to attack?
After Alexander hesitated for a moment, thinking that he was 2:0 ahead after all, it seemed like there was no harm in giving it a try, so he chose to attack the red ball in the pocket.
But his arms are still too thick! The distance between the arms and the white ball is very close. When playing court ball, regardless of whether the intention is to hit a low shot, the club must be played with the tail erect. As a result, the attack is difficult
It goes straight up!
Sure enough, the red ball in the pocket in this shot ended up being much thinner, and the white ball stopped in the middle of the table, giving Lingzhi many opportunities.
Lingzhi did not waste this opportunity. He stumbled around the blue and black balls and scored more than 40 points, clearing most of the red balls in the lower half of the table.
Seeing that the remaining balls were staying on the upper half of the table and the edge of the bank, and that his current shot was not in a good position, Ling Zhi was not careless. While attacking the top pocket of a red ball, he pushed the white ball towards the table.
Pull it from below to form a continuous attack and defense.
In the end, the red ball was not scored. Fortunately, the white ball stopped at the edge of the base again, which did not give Alexander a good chance.
Alexander didn't have any good ideas. The better offensive balls were all in the upper half of the table, and they were not easy to hit. He could only choose to hit a red ball in the left side bank to get the red ball.
While hitting it, let the white ball return to the bottom bank again.
However, since this shot was played with the butt of the club raised, a lot of force was removed from the white ball after it hit the red ball on the edge of the bank. As a result, the white ball did not smoothly run back to the bottom bank, but stayed in the upper half of the table!
There were too many missed balls at this time. Lingzhi seized the opportunity and scored more than 30 points in one stroke. The total score was more than 70 points ahead of Alexander, forming a super score.
Alexander did not choose to continue to fight as snooker, but readily gave up.
After winning his first game, Ling Zhi felt a little calmer and mastered some tricks against Alexander.
In the fourth game, Ling Zhi followed suit and tried his best to keep the white ball very close to the edge of the library.
There was a ball in the middle. There were still many red balls in the lower half of the table. Lingzhi saw that it was difficult to run the white ball back to the low-scoring area, so he directly controlled the white ball in the right side bank of the lower half of the table!
This puts Alexander in a difficult position. Originally, he could have chosen to defend directly, but at this moment the white ball is relatively close to many red balls. If he does not attack, it will not be so easy to wait for such a good opportunity!
So after hesitating for a moment, he decided to raise the tail of the stick to attack, but still failed to score.
Lingzhi seized the opportunity, kept scoring points around the black ball, and finally won the game successfully.
After the tie at 2:2, while the referee was swinging the ball, Alexander sat in his seat and rubbed his eyebrows with his right hand, seemingly thinking about how to play the decisive game.
Although Lingzhi chased for two games in a row, he felt vaguely embarrassed, thinking that deliberately forcing Alexander to lift the tail of the club to play might be a bit in vain.
But he immediately thought that even when playing against normal people, it is still a common defensive strategy to defend the white ball to the edge of the library. If Alexander can't play this kind of ball, you have to let me defend like this.
I am not a monster with a strong single-shot scoring ability. If I don't defend, I will never have a chance to win!
After calming down, Ling Zhi stood up and prepared for the final decisive game.
The decisive game started with a defensive battle between the two. Ling Zhi still wanted to learn the routine of the first two games, trying to break up the pile of red balls and stop the white balls at the edge of the base.
However, this time, he failed to find a good opportunity.
The reason why Lingzhi was able to break up the ball pile and keep the white ball close to the bottom in the third game was because the white ball was very close to the red ball pile at that time, and the position of the white ball was easier to control.
But the decisive game was different. Alexander seemed to be unwilling to let Lingzhi quickly break up the pile of red balls to speed up the pace of the game. Instead, he kept moving the white balls to the upper half of the table to defend.
Even if he was given the opportunity to hit the bag, Alexander still didn't choose to fight!
Ling Zhi thought that Alexander indeed had rich experience and knew how to make timely adjustments at critical moments to avoid being beaten. He was really a difficult opponent.
However, Ling Zhi felt calm at this time, even mixed with a little excitement.
Yes, such an opponent is interesting!
As the number of defenses increased, Ling Zhi no longer required the white balls to stick to the bottom, and began to move the white balls to the top of the table to defend. Gradually, the red balls on the table became more and more scattered.
The red ball is scattered, which means that the return route of the white ball is harder to find, and it becomes more and more difficult for the two people to defend!
There was a ball in the middle, and Alexander really had no way to prevent the white ball from reaching the upper half of the table, so he had to take the initiative to sink the white ball into the bottom bank.
This is also a helpless move. There are a lot of balls in the lower half of the table at this time. There are red balls in the bottom bank, red balls in the side bank, and red balls near the middle pocket. Although none of the red balls are simple balls, as long as you score one
If there are 1, Lexus will get a lot of points.
Alexander could only hope that Lexus would not choose to attack.
Fortunately, the Chinese boy in his eyes did not choose to attack.
Ling Zhi entered a mysterious state at this time. He felt that he could no longer hear the comments from the surrounding audience. He was only thinking about how to defend the next shot to a perfect position. By the way, he recalled what the coach said about him.
His teachings:
Whether you are attacking or defending, try to make the white ball go along the "line" instead of the "point".
A chaotic distribution map of red balls on the table appeared in Ling Zhi's mind. He suddenly had a flash of inspiration and determined a safe route. Almost at the same time, his hand moved as his heart moved, and his club was sent out.
After the white ball hit a red ball in the bottom bank, it passed through thousands of red leaves with an elegant posture, without staining a strand, and finally stopped steadily just above the coffee ball, blocking all the people in the lower half of the table.
red ball!
The surrounding audience was stunned for a moment, and then burst into warm applause.
Chapter completed!
