Start by placing the glass in the center of the pool table. Then place the target ball in front of the glass. Place the ball that will hit the target ball at that same end of the pool table, in the exact center of that end. Hit that ball to the target ball. This will cause the target ball to bounce back to the glass and head into the corner pocket.
3. "Ball in the Glass Trick": Place your glass on the side of the pool table. Then place one ball just below that on the pool table. Now line your other ball directly in front of that ball on the opposite side of the pool table. When you hit the ball in front of you, you need to hit the ball on the other side just beneath the glass. That ball will flip up and go into the glass. Now you know how to do trick shots in pool with a glass. There is another glass shot that is a bit trickier.

This then bounces the ball into the cup and it bounces back to the pocket where you hit the first ball.
