    Straight Pool High Run

    I did some research last year about "Ohio's Tom Parker with 642". I was unable to find someone who knew him and that could confirm that he claimed to have run 642. On the contrary, I found 1 player that knew him well that has no memory of Parker claiming to have run anything close to 642. On the...

    14.1 Stats -- 2019 Am. Straight Pool Championship (Single-Elim. Portion), Oct. 2019

    Yes it is exactly as you say Mr Capelle. The BSN guys were doing the scoring themselves. Actually for the first 2 days it was Jake Lawson alone. He was doing many things at the same time, switching cameras, commentating, preparing replays, running trivia question lottery, inserting ads, scoring...

    Does anybody know the freaking rules?

    Watching the American 14.1 straight pool championship. Alex Pagulayan makes a legal break (2 balls and the cue ball to the rail) and then scratches. Of course this is a legal break (-1 point, a regular foul, Not a -2 breaking foul) and the opponent can -NOT- ask for a rerack. Now both...

    BPI, PPI, BPASI, PPASI and OPI

    Hi Sjm, First to answer your question: "If one pockets the one loose ball on the table, plays shape for a safety, and then plays safe, is that an offensive inning or not? " Yes it is considered an offensive inning in the calculation of OPI and also in the calculation of BPASI/PPASI (offensive...

    BPI, PPI, BPASI, PPASI and OPI

    BPI = Balls per innings PPI = Points per innings BPASI = Balls per attempted scoring innings PPASI = Points per attempted scoring innings OPI = Offensive play index The first 4 have existed for a while. You can find BPI and PPASI in a few scoring apps already. To calculated BPI/PPI, you...

    BPI, PPI, BPASI, PPASI and OPI

    For those interested in the analytical aspect of 14.1: I have been scoring matches of the Amsterdam Billiards 14.1 league for a while now, so much that I have enough data now to compare various 14.1 metrics. For some players (mostly open/pro-level players) I have multiple matches. I have also...

    OB-2s anyone tried ?

    Anyone tried the new shaft from OB cues: OB-2s. This is not the carbon fiber shaft. This is the successor of OB-2+. Hope this will fix the fragile ferrule problem.

    Straight Pool Statistics

    Hi JustNum, Cool to find another player interested in the analytical aspect of 14.1. I have developed a 14.1 scoreboard software that calculated a fair amount of statistics. You can see an example of it in action here: https://www.facebook.com/sean.c.morgan/videos/2508176239221462/ For stats...

    14.1 Stats -- 2018 Am. Straight Pool Championship (Single-Elim. Portion), Oct. 2018

    Hi AtLarge, I also have a tool that calculates stats and I used it when I watched the match on fb. I compared my stats with yours, found some differences and I thought it would be interesting to look at them. You calculated 3 misses for Kaci and 5 misses for Hohmann, I have 4 and 6 misses...
