The question is why should it be legal? There is a magic rack that pretty much comes very close to guaranteeing a tight rack. Why should guys be allowed to rack their own?
The goal in professional pool should be to attract fans. Fans are not interested in pattern racking- seeing the same basic runout over and over. It is especially bad when allowed in 9 ball. In 8 ball, it should be alternating stripe, solid ,etc. except for the back two balls- must be one stripe, one solid.
Again, I've always been a fan of Corey, but I don't think this should be allowed. It is bad for pool.
