"After review of the unedited video by a BCA committee of 5 people it was noted that on the 45th ball, Jayson Shaw inadvertently touched an object ball."

Ouch.

I’ve watched the video more than a dozen times and cannot discern any touching of the 45th ball.
Maybe autofocus comes into play with this-
Who else has purchased & watched the video?

Who was on the committee?!

 

[Chicagoplayer]

Yes.

Not a typo-
They are saying early in the run, the 45th ball.

We have an official statement coming soon. It looks like Jayson actually has 2 records now instead of one record. Rule 21 on the BCA website states cue ball fouls only and also the WPA states it also. They changed the goal posts many times to defeat Jayson's High Run. Certainly very Biased but 2 World records are better than 1. Tune in to Cue It Up tonight for an excliusive podcast. time coming soon.

Did you see post #9?

If it happened 3 racks in wouldn't the run stop there?

 

[Sheldon]

If it was the 45th rack, the number would have to be just above 630. 45x14=630

Azhousepro clarified in Billiard News that they decided to treat the 46th ball of the run as the first of a new run, thus the 669 record.

I'm not sure how that works, but that's the story.

More official than the BCA's? Do you really think there's a conspiracy here?

seems like this record will always be surrounded by drama

Perfect..the original write up did not say that ..or I am an idiot. In this case both could be true

714-45 = 669!

Makes sense.

IF it happened, yes, but I’m telling you, I purchased the DVD, and watched his run at least a dozen times, and
I DID NOT see an object ball foul.

I gotta go read the BCA rules.

But, I know Jayson and he would have called a foul on himself before continuing.
That’s who he is.

But now I gotta watch it a dozen more.

Unless he thought he was playing cue ball fouls only.

Solid- I think he would have acknowledged it also- especially so early into a run.

Does that negate everything after the 45th ball?
