Danny, welcome back! Once again you're responding to a post that's more than a year old as if it were posted yesterday. Your arguments a year ago were already dismissed as fluff.

i read that someone used Dr. Dave's Table Difficulty Factor, and this event table is rated 'very easy'. That doesn't include the cloth, just the table size, pocket sizes and shelf. Earlier on this thread the event people thought the table should be optimized for making big runs easy.

Thanks Bob, Bleepety-bleep-bleep! Recalculating, recalculating ..... DCC 14.1 Challenge. 2006-2009, Finishing in the money. Top 5 1. Schmidt, 13 2. Orcollo, 10 3. Feijen, 8 4. Appleton, 7 5. Immonen, 7 Danny Harriman placed 3 times, and his AZB avatar says 'One of the best in 14.1". John...

Looking into it a little deeper, for the DCC 14.1 Challenge, John Schmidt has placed in the money more than any other person in the whole world. Top 5 1. Schmidt, 12 2. Orcollo, 10 3. Feijen, 8 4. Appleton, 7 5. Immonen, 7 Danny Harriman placed 2 times, and his AZB avatar says 'One of the best...

From what I can find, the DCC has had a 14.1 Challenge event starting in 2007 and running through to 2019. John Schmidt placed in the money for 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019. I don't know what happened in 2013 that he didn't place. Was that the year he...

SVB High runs: Day 1: 164 Day 2: 184

Danny Harriman would stand off back in the audience and throw chalk at him. After every shot, Lou would loudly proclaim "Maybe he made that shot, and maybe he didn't" Earl would go ballistic over something and have the ref in a headlock while John was trying to shoot.. Mike Duschene would be...

Not AI, just video analysis. The software just keeps track of what balls are on the table, and where they're located. It can tell the balls apart if the video is of good quality. On Youtube there are lots of matches where the camera is of poor quality, or wasn't color calibrated. The balls...

He had a 200 ball run on his practise day, one day before the event started.

I copied the videos from Day 1, and here's the results of the 10x software scan. SVB Day 1 Summary SVB 1.1: SVB 14.1 High run challenge begins tonight. duration 1.41 17 42 14 43 132 ?? Chopped video. Ends abruptly in the middle of a shot. SVB 1.2: SVB Day 1: The Legends of Pocket...

I copied the other Day 2 video (duration 2:54), and scanned it with software SVB's runs over the almost 3 hours 2 70 70 25 184 121 Then with his runs over the second video of 6 hours 159 42 154 115 28 30 (see note 1) 103 20 17 62 0 28 42 (see note 2) 84 52 Clearly he was most successful in...

Words to live by. On the Facebook page, it shows two videos for day 2. DAY 2 - SVB - The Legends of Pocket Billiards 14.1 High Run Challenge, and the duration is 2:54:45 SVB Day 2 High Run Challenge and the duration is 6:13:09 I downloaded the second video and passed it through some...

Regarding the video library on the Facebook page for the Legends of Pocket Billiards Not Named Schmidt event. 1. One of the items you need to fix is the naming convention. What you have now is confusing and has gaps. On the Facebook page, the listed videos are:somewhat haphazardly named...

That's interesting, and the kind of data i was hoping to get. 25% to run 100 from an open position. Less than 5% failure on both break shots and on the shot after the break. Very cool! Thanks Bob.

Cutting the cloth into 626 pieces shows some marketing savvy I think. I agree with others that there was never going to be a whole whack of money made as a consequence of the high run. He'd make some money for sure, and more than enough to cover his expenses. Maybe the best he could hope for...

On the Facebook page, there are five videos for Day 1, but they aren't continuous for some reason. Some videos start with a couple of racks showing, and some videos end mid-run, with no video showing the continuation. Is this the 'chopped-up video' Danny Harriman was talking about? Is there...

We watched some at the pool hall this evening, and all had a good laugh at BC avoiding even saying the BCA or John Schmidt's name, but taking as gospel any off-hand comment from old-time players of the great runs they think they made. . It is interesting watching SVB run racks, and i hope he...

Danny, you're spinning, but not moving. Schmidt provided the video and the affidavit, and the video was reviewed by knowledgeable 14.1 players, and by the BCA, and they sanctioned the new record. If you and your dwindling posse think he didn't set a new record, there are a number of things you...

Danny, that's almost poetic! Have you thought of maybe putting it to music?

I notice the Ox Billiards membership page says 'membership is now full', and you can submit your name on a waiting list. Must be doing all right??
