Thanks Steve and Dennis for the complements. I've probably played Mike 20-30 times and only was competitive one other time which happened to be our previous season's league match and Mike came back to beat me in that one. So this was a huge win for me. Now I have to get ready for another...

Thanks for the kind words, Mike. I still can't believe the beginning of the game went the way it did. There were some uncharacteristic scratches by you and 110 balls in 12 innings (9.2 BPI) for me, which is about twice what my average BPI usually is. The next 8 innings I was playing safe or...

Watch the Reyes/Appleton match in the 2012 World 14.1 Championship if you can. They played safe on the entire rack until there was only one ball by the rack area. Nine consecutive safeties were played which was the longest safety battle I ever saw. The score was Reyes (25) Appleton (57) when...

14-1StraightMan and I play in a straight pool league at Volcanos in Hurst. Are you aware of it?

Way to go Maniac. Where in Texas do you live? A few of us are in the DFW area.

40 is a great run especially if you just started playing. Keep it up. Looking forward to seeing the next video.

Nice run. Great shot on the 3 ball to keep the run alive. The HD quality of your video is much appreciated. However, the camera perspective is such that it is difficult to really see your patterns.

Nice run, Dennis. That scratch in the side was brutal.

Just curious, are you using the term "nurse" as in "rail nurse" as played in the game straight rail? http://www.jimloy.com/billiard/rail.htm

Mike and I got together again Friday night at his house and had another great time playing a few races to 100. Game1: Mike had me down 68-52 and then ran 32 and out and continued to 58. Great run Mike! Game 2: I played better and was leading by just a few of balls for the first part of the...

Your iPhone will do just fine. All the videos I have posted with the exception of my 44 have been streamed live via ustream and saved or recorded locally using my iPhone 3GS.

I never saw anything . . . :wink:

Congrats to Stuart Pettman! What an incredible run! I can't believe it ended the way it did. I look forward to seeing more of him in the future.

Dennis, thanks for everything you've done to support the DCC. Look forward to watching the matches on YouTube.

It was a great time! I seldomly have an opportunity to play strong players like Mike outside of league matches. He was a great host and we had a lot of laughs. Looking forward to doing again soon.

Congrats Andy!

Thanks V. I ran 50 in a league match in 2010 but nothing in the 50s since. Are you playing 14.1 league this next season?

Your solution here is consistent with a thread you commented on that discussed how my opponent shot at a ball in the kitchen when he had ball in hand. Your response was to try to turn in into a teaching moment, which I understand and can appreciate. However, I'm confused at why you would add 15...

I agree with you Mike. This situation is part (b) of WPA rule 6.16 Unsportsmanlike Conduct and is up to the discretion of the referee. If I had to rule on this, I would call it loss of game.

Congrats Mike! I figured you would be on the top.
