    I just lost 150-0

    WOW!!! Thanks for sharing that. Must have been amazing to see. I would have ask for a rematch, racked, and then left the triangle around the balls!

    I just ran 52

    During my lunch break I've been playing a friend some 9-ball matches for the past couple weeks on a 7' valley at a local pub, but today he never showed. So I decide to practice a little 14-1 and wham: right out of the gate I run 52... nearly doubling my previous high run! I don't think I had...

    I preformed some "hack" work today!

    How much time did you spend leveling that thing?

    Getting pockets tightened on New Table?

    I appreciate all the answers, thanks for the replies! I live in Cornwall, Ontario, and will probably get my table from Palason in Montreal. This is exactly what I was looking for! I will try and get more info the next time I get back to the store.

    Getting pockets tightened on New Table?

    In the near future, I will be ordering an entry-level brunswick table. While at the showroom I asked the sales guy about having the pockets tightened when they come to install the table. He said it wasn't possible, and I didn't press him about it, figuring that I should really be asking the...

    Ran first rack... Finally!

    Hello to all you "real" pool players! I just wanted to say hello, and brag about running my first complete rack! I ran 27 balls, rattling the key ball in the second rack! I think I was getting a little excited, and I lost my concentration! Now I have a good goal to shoot for. The first rack...

    how many 2.25 pool balls fit on a 9 ft 50 x 100 billiard table?

    As drawn you got 1101 in there... Way to go, but... Your last two rows have 23 balls each!!!?! The illustration seems a little off since we should only have 5/100 of an inch left after the two rows of 22! But that is exactly what I was trying to do!!

    how many 2.25 pool balls fit on a 9 ft 50 x 100 billiard table?

    Nice image! Origanally I thought that by offsetting the sets of two balls in the two final rows might gain enough space for 2 more balls. But hand calculations were never completed... After 4 rows I gave up as it didn't look like space was trending up fast enough. If your not following me...

    how many 2.25 pool balls fit on a 9 ft 50 x 100 billiard table?

    In practice, jiggleing a board across the first few rows should help the balls settle into an approximate position... As long as the balls are allowed to utilize the entire 50", there should be no problem fitting them in. Actually, tossing an additional ball on top of the last two rows and...

    how many 2.25 pool balls fit on a 9 ft 50 x 100 billiard table?

    The 1098 Ball Proof Place 22 balls evenly spaced along the 50" rail so that the end balls are both in the corner of the table (touching both rails). The distance between balls centers should be d = 47.75/21 =~2.2738095238095238095238095238095 inches Place the 21 balls in the next row so each...

    how many 2.25 pool balls fit on a 9 ft 50 x 100 billiard table?

    Take it easy... I meant no offence... Brain offered your name up to hold... And I'm just going to ship my $100 no questions asked... Fine... I'll just post my proof tonight when I get home and brain can ship me the $100 directly. I posted the wager and he's the one that accepted the wager... If...

    how many 2.25 pool balls fit on a 9 ft 50 x 100 billiard table?

    OK... Just to be clear... I've only been a member/lurker for 2 weeks. You won't be offended if I ask about to see if you (OTLB) are a trust-worthy "holder"... Will you? The wager is for $100 USD and I just have to post a verifiable proof showing more than 1097 balls, correct! No tricks...

    how many 2.25 pool balls fit on a 9 ft 50 x 100 billiard table?

    A very good attempt... but 1097 is incorrect! Since this is my first post, i'll forgive any flames, but I'll put up $100 that I can show a proof that you can get more than this... any takers?
