Shane just got 7balls off a 10 ball break in Bangkok

Ummmm, I guess I need to remind you what you previously stated...



So again I say...any pro is a heavy favorite to get out with three balls left on the table...IF THEY GET ON THE 8.

That better??

So very deep-Thank you
 
He has many times

what's he up to in Bangkok? frickin AWESOME city to visit, if you're from North America/Europe, there might not be a better spot on earth for r&r

seeing as he has the means and desire to travel often, I would love to see him spend a few months in manilla sharpening his skills

Shane has spent many months, at different times, in the Philippines, and takes the money down.
 
I'm happy when I make 1 ball on the break, and ecstatic when I make 2 balls on the break in 10 ball :frown:
 
seriously? let me set up the 3 balls for any pro and u got 10-1

without a good first shot no one is close to a favorite

The shot in the picture isnt exactly unmakeable... its pretty high percentage for any pro and a lot of players in general.
 
Seven on the break at 10-ball might be a world record.

Shane, like Billy Johnson did, hits them hard, but sweet....
...whitey has to be on the cloth when it hits the head ball.

You are missing the point. My post was in response to your post wherein you questioned the veracity of the report from the OP. In support of this, you stated that you found it "fishy" that the first 7 balls were made, leaving the final three balls 8, 9, and 10 in perfect sequence.

What I was trying to communicate, but I guess I didn't in the first post, is that the 8,9, and 10 are almost always left when a smart pro is racking.

Under this scenario, it is not hard to believe that the 8,9, and 10 are left on the table.

i thought it was a race to 20. did they make it 25? shane must have been playing strong there, but how did Cocoy Digos do?

Yes they made it race to 25 just before the start, I think they were playing for 6k
 
That was 6 balls... and 9 ball. Still impressive, but 9ball isnt known for being difficult in making balls on the break. 10ball is.

I know what it was but 6 on the break in 9 and 7 on the break in 10 is almost the same thing. I was just saying that alex made more than 50% on the break and lost.

But yes amazing in 10 ball (i've seen a ton of dry breaks in 9 ball and 6 on the break is not common)

6 on the break in 9b is def uncommon but happens. I made 5 last week on a break (and maybe once all of last year).

7 balls on the break in 10b, as pt suggested, this may well be a world record or ties one. My poor math skills won't let me tell you exactly by how much but I feel confident to say say this feat by SVB is WAY, WAY harder. :wink:

A friend of mine made 7 on the break (Diamond 7' box in Vegas) and the two balls left were the 1 and 9 .... and he had no shot on the 1 ! ... kicked at it and lost the game.

My claim to fame is that during a 10 ball break at a local club, the pot was up to $80 a ball ($800 total). I broke and made 5 off the break for $400 ... and had the simplest layout ever and got out for the full $800.

Never made 5 on the break in 10b. Maybe 4 just a very few times.

it's freakin' hard.

real pleased to get one and a clear shot. :wink:
