I hope that is on video, must watch!!!
Niels is for sure a beast. One of the greatest running around atm.
The commentator at the Mosconi-Cup nailed it when he told about Niels, entering the table would look like a terminator "i am here to kill you with my cue". His nickname is really program
Furthermore the perfect example for total willing and that hard work pays back and a great sportsman.

Hi Guys,
Here is what Niels wrote on his FB page!
Just ran a 416 in straight pool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I got home from the Emirates Saturday morning and felt really sick. Stayed at home 2 days coughing like mad and this evening I told Kat I was gonna hit a few balls just for the feel. She came up after 20min and I said I felt weak and was just gonna finish the run that was on 42 at that time. After passing the 150, I really started to wake up and I didn't get nervous until about 260. Nick had the old Dutch record with 293 and my old record was 259. Nobody in Holland ever reached 300 so I was nervous. I made a barely and then it took me another 30 balls to relax again. After that it was full steam ahead again. Missed a funky shot with a lot of inside english to break open 3 balls. Took 3 hours, Kat was the witness Amazing stuff

Interesting that he was sick...perhaps just a coincidence, but perhaps it helped him get in 'the zone'?
It's definitely possible that being sick may have helped. Certainly can take the expectation off of what you can do and free wheeling takes over. Skies the limit if you don't let being sick take over your thought process. My record is real good in tournaments on what most other people would call a day to call into the office. I found I didn't have the energy for second guessing on things so I concentrated on the execution instead of the risks.
Some of my best performances came from being sick or hungover lol. I had to use the table to keep from toppling over, but the balls kept going in and that's what matters.
I've done some amazing things when sick or hurt. You become so focused on not focusing yes you go into a trance like state of mind. Back in the 70's it was reefer madness.
I once bowled a 296 with a soar back.
i can dream of only a quarter, so guess ill need a 100 ball spot from you !
