Last Night at Amsterdam Billiards in NYC, Alex Pagulian was challenged that he could not run 100 Balls in 3 attempts with ball in hand and a breakshot to start.

Well, in just 1 attempt he did it in a grand way with continuing onto 287.

the feat was live streamed by Michael Yednak of ABC and he also did some great commentary. i checked back today to watch more of it, and it's gone. if michael reposts it on Facebook i will share it here.

My fantasy would be to see Mosconi against Alex...both at the same age.
I think Alex would've beat him to death.
:thumbup:
Alex made many difficult shots during the run. Ball 197 (at the 1:24 mark or so) was particularly impressive. My money would be on Willie.

Alex's money would be on Willie also....
...he would realize that he would have to play 14.1 as a primary game for years to approach
Willie's speed....i doubt Alex has played the game .05% of the game as Willie has.

Nice run. The final rack of these big runs always reminds me of my game.

FacePlant wants money for your eyes. Videos are relatively expensive.

I'd be glad to put the video up on YouTube if Michael gives permission.

Bob, Low500 is trolling Lou. He takes every opportunity he can to take a silly swipe at Mosconi because he knows that it irks Lou. He's done it several times already, even after Lou called him out on it.

I am not the originator of the video so I cannot change the settings.

My guess is that Mike Yednak did not post it as public for the world to see.

I’ll reach out to mike to see if he can change the settings in the video

I guess it's just a matter of opinion.
That Pagulayan can sure shoot good though.
It's obviously impossible to happen, but I'd put up a few bucks on that wild, happy go lucky Alex.
Stay happy and keep on truckin'
