Acting forces on a curve ball (billiards) I am trying to understand how the physics behind a curve ball in billiards work. Please see the attached picture:

The red ball is meant to hit the blue ball. But to reach the blue ball, it has to go around the black one. I know to achieve such a curve, the cue must hit the ball left of the center. This will introduce a spin with the marked direction (clockwise). To me, this spin explains the first half of the curve (up to the black ball), but not how it is able to change its direction. What prevents the red ball from following the dashed orange path (which is much more intuitive to me)? The spin movement (clockwise direction) should move the ball away from its target. 
I know (believe) this is related to the friction forces (kinetic friction, rolling friction) between the ball and the table and that there is also a force due to aerodynamic effects which can be neglected in this case. Has anyone a picture/description or can explain the acting forces? 
Which forces act at which time to make the red ball follow the black curve?
 A: The spin of the red ball has two components: the clockwise you mention, and the forward roll. Imagine the red ball is not moving forward but only spins clockwise, as you draw. You then roll it forward by a quarter revolution. Now it will role to the left. This is what gives the left curving.
A: The force vector acting in the ball by the cue is a sum of a normal and a friction one. If there were no friction between cue and ball, that would follow a straight line to the right, without spinning. 
The friction force is to the left. Its is certainly small for that material, so the composite force is to the right.
If the kick is just above the ball centre of mass, its axis of rotation is not vertical, but tilted to the right. So, the friction force from the table acts in the ball to the left all the way during its path. 
The resultant trajectory is an arc as indicated by the black line.
The red line is typical for tennis or soccer balls, where the friction forces comes from the air, not from the floor.
