Have you ever made a $10,000 10 ball?

Man oh man, that was impressive!

For $10K I'd have been sharting continuosly. :eek:

That was NOT an easy table and with all that pressure, my hat's off to ya!

Well I have! ...and I pulled it off!

I had partners in this venture but there is no price you can put on the feeling I had during this run!

Enjoy...I sure did!

Amen! The feeling of 'I DID IT' is all yours.

Thanks for sharing with us. I will PM you my address;)
 
Congrats !!

Funny, the easiest shot in the sequence was the 8 ball, looked dead straight, only had to stop it to get on the 9ball, yet, you took the longest on this particular shot.....

And I play almost this slow in leagues.....I said almost :)

PS: So, tell what type of "lucky" cue you used in this little run ???
 
Very nice shooting. Solid stroke and stance.

You looked pretty comfortable, everything considered. I would have had 'alligator' arms and underhit everything.

Started with very miss-able long combo. Super two railer to break out the 2.

Cross side scratch available 7 to 8. Looks like you elected longer shape on the 8 with the 9 close to pocket. Looks like it got tough to bridge setting up for that straight in -you hit it good, didn't rush.

Real good out. Congratulations.

ps: 10 on break didn't count, I guess.

Did drinks cost ya a grand or so?
 
Nice little combo.

Great breakout on the two.

4 ball wiped its feet going in!!

Little shoulder roll to shake off the nerves.

45 second break on the 8 ;)

Easy (under pressure) 9 and 10 for the out.

Congrats man, that must have felt great!!!

:smile:

I wasn't complaining...little embarrassed is all. :thumbup:

I wish we had sound on the stream. I was chatting it up with everyone in the room. At one point I had a buddy play the jukebox as it had gotten deathly quiet in there! lol

That 4 ball hung there for an eternity! I actually reminded myself to cut it a little extra due to being thin and my hitting it soft. Good thing! Had I cut it normally it would have hung for sure!

Thanks everyone! I would highly recommend this to anyone! ;)

Oh yeah! I think it was while I was looking at the 2 I told them to play some music because my heart beat was so deafening! :P

Thanks!

Ken

Definitely wanted to take the side pocket out of the equation on the 7!

The ten ball must be respotted if made early.

I bought a round for the house but we must have had a lot of tea totalers because it only cost me $100! ;)

Thanks!

The 8 was my second least favorite shot of the rack. The 14 was right where I wanted to put my bridge and the shot was lined up to the inside tit....so ya gotta cut it but not cut it. Then if I cut it too much I gotta shoot the 9 from the rail...not something I wanted to do if I could help it!

I use an old Schon with an OB1 shaft. Kamuii tip. Master chalk ;)

Thanks!

Compare the angle on the 9 to the one I had on the 4. Couple that with the fear of cutting to the right I have now after talking with Gene Albrecht, and that was a lot harder inside my head than it looked! :D

Thanks everyone!

Ken
 
Nice out... I would have bet agasint you after the break honestly.

Side note: I wish we could get BNR pots in Chicago on bar boxes.... They make all of ours on big tables, even if the tournament in on a BB.

Don't mind at all Sean. You might wanna look up our OKC Pool players group. Sometimes something good to watch on our stream and that is where I post when we do it. You can find me via Melinda "AKATrigger" if you can't find the group.
