Add me for a 98 this past weekend (Saturday, 03 May 2014).
Got "iffy" on the break ball (very nearly straight-in to the corner pocket), and needed to cheat the pocket a little to create an angle into the rack, along with a lot of spin on the cue ball to help it get there. Although I got the angle and opened the rack, I cheated the pocket a little too much (probably due to spinning the cue ball too much / off the shot line), and bobbled the break ball. S-o-o-o-o close to 100, and it'd been a while since I did so. Normally, I'd get mad at myself, but I did the best I could with what I had. But hey, for someone that plays as little as I do these days (
), I can't complain.

Move me up to 85 from 84, lol.

Not a very controlled run, made a lot of mistakes but made some good shots to bail me out.

Nice run, Bill! The "come with it" shots to bail the run out sometimes are what keeps a run interesting -- especially when you make 'em.

45 ball run
Well, I guess I am not ready to put the cue away just yet. Still lingering in the 50 ball neighborhood. Put me down for a 45.

I think the Blackhawks game 6 win motivated me. Please put me down for a 50 ball run. http://youtu.be/-o6ma5fULKo

Made a 142 today. Took me over an hour due to phone calls but I stuck at it until I missed. Almost missed a really simple stun run through shot because I was discussing what to have for lunch with my girlfriend whilst down on the shot, doh! Ran out of position because of this and struggled getting back in control and I ended up having to try the spectacular and went in-off.
If only I'd have just said bacon sandwiches she'd have left me alone and I could've been on for a 200+.

Nice Job, Jim. I had you for a few days. Go Hawks!!
Thanks Dennis. Good shooting for you too! I'm still bummed about the Hawks loosing game 7.
I feel you. Once at the club my run of 50 something came to an unforeseen end when the chicken sandwich I ordered previously arrived at my table. I couldn't concentrate when I was tasting the succulent sandwich in my mouth already and I swear the sandwich was screaming "eat me!".
