Check the stats
There are less runouts in 9ball with WNT rules than you might think.
But why compare to 9ball?
Why not compare to 8ball on 9ft tables with tight pockets.
I doubt if Tom tries out a big 8ball event, that he will get far, definitely not at start without enough practice and experience.
Put him on a 9ft table with 4 inch pockets against Filler and he’ll get smoked, same for Bergman…

Good start, I had a space too, then found another space, and more spaces.

I too am rethinking my collection and not letting it go too wild. I'm trying to focus on more quality and less quantity these days. Trading out lesser sets for better ones is some of the fun, especially when you find a great deal on a better set.

I am finally adding the bocetta balls. Picked up these new sets, One for a friend. The other two for me to keep. one unused for the collection and one to play with.
So I am ready for some of the rules and games to play with them if you don't mind sharing Mulambo. I grew up playing bocce, The game you play outside on the ground. I would imagine it's pretty much the same as that.

It’s no different when the pros play nineball. they make the 1 in the side 95 percent of the time, and if they can see the two they’re pretty much out.
