    Derby City Straight Pool Challenge 2019

    I believe there have been years where you could make the top 8 without running 100 balls, and I'm just talking about the standard 9ft table years and not the year they did on the Bigfoot tables.

    I heard over 400 which is amazing to me.

    Derby City Straight Pool Challenge 2019

    Correct. He would have had to beat 179 last night and failed to do so. Crazy high number just to make the top 8.

    Derby City Straight Pool Challenge 2019

    I understand your point, but I think Schmidt is a bad example to use here since he is one of the few guys that I know has played big straight pool cash games.

    What Happened Between JA and The Ref?

    Also, it was a pretty tough shot on the 8 even if the cue ball got spotted exactly in the right place. Given the circumstances and how the match worked out anyway not a big deal.

    Straight pool challenge

    I was going to say I think all of the Germans play straight pool because of their league system. I watched most of the run. It was very impressive with really no crazy run saving shots that I saw. It ended on a tough but makeable shot in the upper left corner. Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk

    Jason Hunt- lol

    That's hilarious. I quit watching before that happened. Who ran him out? Ray or some rando? Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk

    Derby City Straight Pool Challenge 2019

    This seems quite odd considering it's generating more interest from players and fans this year than any year prior, and the standard of play is the highest it has ever been. Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk

    Straight pool challenge

    Amazing. When I was there yesterday John Schmidt said that number was what he felt was the ceiling of what could be run on these tables. We'll see if he was correct.

    Derby City Straight Pool Challenge 2019

    Agree with this 100%. It's also the most intimate environment for watching any of the events at the DCC. You are practically sitting right on top of them as they make the runs. Sometimes it's a bit too close to be honest, but the insights you get to glean from watching how they address and...

    Who Is Going To The Derby This Year?

    Dude you don't have to have an excuse. It's not like you RSVPed to the Derby and now you have to show up. If you don't want to go then don't. I think everyone was just letting you know that you're missing out.

    New Big Foot Champ Chang Jung-Lin !

    If he ever became interested in learning some of the intricacies of how to play straight pool it would be downright scary hoe many balls he might run. I heard that they were trying to set up a partners game with Chang and Cheng against a couple of Roy's horses. Sent from my SM-N920V using...

    Bigfoot Final 8

    The Bigfoot Challenge is neither a ring game nor gambling (well except the sweat bets on the side). Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk

    Congrats- James Walden // Scott Frost 1 p H.O.F.

    I assume he meant that he didn't know him personally which is different than knowing of him. I could be wrong. Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk

    Waiting for OB cues delivery for over 6 weeks

    I took my shaft with the loose insert here to the Derby to see if Joe Blackburn or Steve Lomax could fix it. They were definitely not surprised that it was an OB shaft. It couldn't be fixed because they didn't have any replacement inserts with them so I got a taom tip put on my original Joss...

    DCC Bits and Pieces

    That's awesome and makes me regret going to bed. I will say I'm pretty sure they were playing on a 9ft and not a barbox unless there is a 2nd bar table in the room. While I was watching them there were two guys playing a cheap race to 7 9 ball on the bar table right infront of me and annoying...

    DCC Bits and Pieces

    I would hope word would get around so I wouldn't miss it. Because of the randomness of when guys can stop in and make attempts it's hard to know when someone is on a run unless you just happen to be there. Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk

    Who remember this Gold Grown Accessory

    The room I play in has a few of these antiques along with the original brunswick wall cue racks. They aren't in great shape, but they're cool. Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk
