John Schmidt's 626

So who here is up to beating his record by a few balls and releasing live footage? Don't believe the record? Beat it and make him shut up about it.

Agreed, and that is the essence of what I encouragingly outlined for a very highly skilled & respect-worthy 14.1 champion in post 664 on page 45

Don't flatter yourself, you've only parroted what has been stated about 20x already.

But here is the thing: any 14.1 devotee has attempted to run a huge# and has yet to get there.

Or even close. But they have the next best thing: a public forum on which they can try to trash anybody else's success - apparently without realizing the damage they're doing to their own images in the process.

Exactly how tall a step-ladder do you need to get off that horse?

After the first couple of 200+ runs on Diamond tables (4 1/2 " pockets) at DCC Straight Pool challenges, I seem to remember someone commenting that 200 on a Diamond is roughly equivalent to running 300 or more on a Gold Crown with 5" pockets."

Does that ratio sound about right? I'm thinking it's hard to accurately quantify or even estimate something like that.

If you had a lot of data, like as much data as was gathered during all of JS's attempts, you could figure it out. The main data items based on stuff I've mentioned before are: % of break shots missed, % of second shots (just after the break) missed, and % of all other shots missed. You do need a lot of data, though, like 100 or more misses in each of the first two categories.

Pat, evidently your horse is not high enough to let Lou see what you're saying. You may want to transition to a high elephant. Looks more comfortable, perhaps even with in-door plumbing. :thumbup::thumbup: This discussion may take a while.

Bob <-- In Switzerland they eat horses, don't they?
 
Careful about trying to see eye to eye.

All these circus looking animals go perfectly with the circus table Schmidt used to run balls on.

Really? I bet that the table JS broke the record on was closer to the specs of the table that Mosconi set his record on than it is to a Diamond table.

I’ll take that bet. How much you wanna bet? 5k? 10k? 50k?

Agreed. Quite sad actually. Many pros don't want anything to do with the forum because of people who have been rude and inappropriate. Our loss really.

That argument always cracks me up.

Pool players, who are used to all kinds of woofing and sharking, come to AZ and suddenly turn into little delicate snowflakes, lol.
