bad US Open.......

Thats cause you were too busy playin Bonus Ball and forgot all about how to play 9 ball.... ;)

just kiddin man...nice straight pool runs :)
 
Oh, you beat me to it :D (Starting thread in the main forum) :D

Congratulations on your great runs, and good luck getting that last spot in the Mosconi Cup!
 
Pretty damn impressive, the bigger question for the Mosconi cup is can you run 9 balls over, over, and over:-0 Good luck on the Mosconi cup voting John.

you should have got hooked up one ball before, 239 and 293, talk about black magic. Just kidding John, good you started a thread in the Main Forum (I doubt those who will notice it here are daily visitors in "real pool" section)

if i can make ball on break and get shot on lowest ball i can. theres so much luck in 9ball compared to 14.1 and 1hole i cant believe its the game that defines the best players.
 
Great runs John.
I agree about 9 ball and have recently started a 10 ball tournament.. the players love it. No slop. Very little luck (you can still see lucky rolls) but that happens in all games.

When do you expect the videos to be ready for sale?
 
Great stuff, John. And I don't believe 9 ball IS what defines the best players.
Unfortunately..."checkers sells more than chess." Wasn't that it?
 
Hey john it's francesco tomati from italy... Nice to hear that you still can shoot! Even if I witnessed to a longer run (hey guys this gentleman ran 403 talking to me all the time...) I can't wait to watch your upcoming videos of these runs. the table was tough and this makes the run bigger.

I'm missing my trips over there, too much to work with the shirts business, but I hope I'll be back soon. I'm improving my 14.1, some day I'll rack for you.

Take care and good luck with the Mosconi team spot. If Europeans will be able to vote, you got mine.

Francesco
 
EDIT: Removing first portion of my post, misread the numbers.

As I said in the 14.1 forum, these runs are epic given the playing conditions. Would you say these are as special to you as your 400's on GC?

I believe 10 ball should be what sets the par.

Straight pool is just to boring to watch. Great to play but it's just like watching grass grow on tape. Same for one pocket.
 
To me thats much more impressive than the 4-8 buckets all the records are set on.

Nice Job.

Had to qoute you btw, so true.
 
Great going John, I can't wait for the DVDs. Too bad you were injured for the 14.1 Worlds. You are definitely the one to beat in 14.1.
 
John,

Wow, that's a lot off balls. You are truly a stud-muffin :grin:.
