Set the cue ball up so its edge is even with the point of the corner pocket. The first object ball is placed about 1/8 inch away from it. Both of the balls are frozen to the rail.

The first ball in the eleven ball combination is set up so its center is even with point of the corner pocket. The balls are frozen to their neighbors and they are all frozen to the rail. Set a rack up in the side pocket so its edge is on the centerline of the table. My rack is light, so I put a ball tray behind it so it doesn't slide. Aim to hit the cue ball with lots of top and a half tip of left. Aim about 1-1/4 diamond from the corner pocket.
