I am wondering cause to me, there is absolutely no way i am ever going to run balls with people all around me distracting me.
Just wondering who has their own table or access to a private table.
It would be interesting to know who's high runs were achieved in a pool hall on a public table, and who's high runs were done in the peace and quiet of their home or some friends house who happens to have a table.
As i played yesterday, i was in the back of the pool room for some privacy again, and right out of the gate, i got to 36 balls before a family got the table right next to me on the left hand side and they were all standing around having fun, and i missed as a result of not being able to focus.
2 attempts later, i got to 48, before some wide dude had rented the table directly on my right, and fired a ball into the rail when his fat ass swung around and was sticking in my face, just as i let go on the shot.
I got to 42 balls a few tries later and missed when some mentally ill/mentally impaired person (quite literally) rented the table behind me and came and decided to ask me questions about my chalk and where i could get chalk from, and after having told him that there was a box of chalk at the counter, he TOOK mine as i got down to shoot and walked off with it and i of course rifled the ball next ball into the rail and i had to go chase after him to get it back as it was my own piece of Blue Diamond.
So systematically, all the tables around me got rented out (typical) and i just said forget it it's not worth it, and i went up to the counter and switched to a front table, and at that point, i didn't care anymore and was going through the motions but not giving a crap.
Just curious that's all.
