tonight i faced a 3 in 9 ball....i won 38-22. it was one of those matches where my break was not working and he was leaving me hooked when he missed. it was hard to not get frustrated but i managed to keep my head together and just play what the table gave me.
i faced a pretty straight shooting 5 in 8 ball. i thought i could not out shoot him so i would out think him. i played a shit load of safes and won 4-2. i do not normally try this hard to win on a week night because the match drags on forever. it went 36 innings with me playing 15 safes. it almost got to where i dreaded every time i played safe. he used up all his time outs and thought forever on how to get out of each safe i played.
i played the last match and it was 12: 30 when we got through. the 4th match was over at 10:30. think i am gonna go back to trying to run out during the week and save my defense for playoffs and such. i am still keyed up from my match and its gonna be hard falling asleep and gotta get up and go to work in the morning. .... do you fellas ever have this problem after a grueling match ?
