How long do you think it would take to run 626 balls?
Anyone have an idea?

How long would it...

Took Schmitty 4 hours or so. Or anyone else.
Except Lou Butera. Who would've done it in @ 45 minutes. :grin:
Well, 44 racks times x/minutes per rack. Would really depend on speed/rhythm of the player. 5min/rack would be almost 4hrs.
Lou Butera was timed once at his House of Champions in PA...
...ran a 100 in ten minutes...that’s including racking...:shocked2:
How do you know it took him 4 hrs or so, were you there, or did you speak to John?
The NY Times article mentioned that time...about 4 hours
They need to come on with the video already
Probably taking thier time to plug predator product's at just the right moments

I ran a 104 in 23 minutes I am certainly no JS but I think it's fair to say a fast pace player can run 100 in 30 minutes give or take
11 months, 30 days and 23 and a half hours for me, Even thinking about straight pool makes me tired.
104 balls = a little more than 6 racks
6 racks = about 1.5 minutes to rack, each
23 minutes - 9 minutes (to rack) = 14 minutes to run 104 balls
104 balls ÷ 14 minutes = 7.4 balls per minute AVERAGE!!

Thank you, PT. I'd go into combat with you anytime! :grin-square:
I KNOW, right? Sick, sick, sicckkkkkkkk.
I read somewhere he ran 150 and out in 21 minutes in a match!
I HATE him! :yeah:
I take less than 15 seconds to rack at 14.1 on a ball-return table. For John's runs on a drop-pocket table with a Sardo rack, it was about 50 seconds.
It takes a while.....and even longer if there will be commentary...
...which I hope there is

I think your math is off. But its on youtube if you really need to break it down !
No worries, just an observation.
I mean, it took JS a little over 4 hours to run 626. At your pace, you would have done it in less than 2.5 hours. That's fast.

Fair enough. Lets say, I over estimated the racking time. I still think that (including walking to the foot end, racking, then walking back to the CB, for the shot) the whole process might take at least 30 seconds?

PT & all...
John has posted on Facebook that he's trying to marry commentary to the video before release.
I'm sure it will take a bit. I'd expect he would want to release the best possible product version attached to this kind of accomplishment.
