    The POS

    Nice job, the table looks great. It appears you got the deal of the century. I used to play at a room in the 60's that had all Gandys. Get that video camera set up while the cloth is new. We need another 100 ball run on video to watch. Bill

    87 and choke...

    I've been playing David, getting into the 50's a lot and a few 60's sprinkled in but I just do something stupid to stop the run. Sometimes a scratch on the breakshot, sometimes making the wrong choice on the pattern and sometimes just missing. Get out there and run me a 100+ today. Bill

    87 and choke...

    I had decided on the 9 in the side with the 15 ball as the key about half way through the rack but I just screwed up the pattern. When I had to shoot the 15 I was trying to get on the 13 to draw back up in the kitchen and still retain the 9 in the side for the break but I screwed that up too...

    87 and choke...

    It's hard to believe you can choke when you are playing by yourself. Missed a straight in shot at 88. I might be getting to old for this. lol http://vimeo.com/22156438

    sbe 14.1 challenge

    Darren Appleton beat John Schmidt in the final. The amateurs did not play a tournament, they just got some prize money for the top two highest runs.

    Fury 14.1 Challenge Roundup (Very Long Post) Good read though !!

    Mark, Is it going to be the high run for 1 inning as it is at the DCC or is it going to be the total for the 4 innings as it is at the Expo? Bill

    Cuetable Layout

    Where do you go with the cue ball after you shoot the 7, how do you finish your pattern to get position on the 11 that you saved?

    Cuetable Layout

    I shoot the 11 because there is no good key ball for it anyway. I would go 11, 2, 7 and if I don't get perfect on the 1 to slide up for the 12 I would leave the cue ball in the rack and take the break shot from the kitchen. I would only take a risky shot to preserve the breakball if it led to...

    TONITE Danny Barouty vs. Jose Parica 14.1

    I liked Barouty. More straight pool experience, home table, home room.

    I heard Big Gina is the best of the best, but usually only plays at Ames mister, no bar, no pinball machines, no bowling alley, just pool, nothing else.

    The number is for 5 turns at the table, not 3.

    The Greatest Show On Earth

    It is Diamond tables. Those number are for 5 innings at the table not just one run. I believe the high run for one inning is 111 by Mka so far.

    Playing speed

    This pretty much sums it up. Very good post. My pace of play is a little faster than it was a few years ago only because I'm not as confused as to what to do right after the breakshot. Now it just kind of comes naturally on how to start taking off the balls. Some racks just seem so easy and...
