excellent!
Quick question - more out of curiosity as I will not be trying to win a prize, but am using this as an incentive, but does the streak have to start with a break or can we just start with a given setup?
I have reached 11 with a given start up position.
Yes, half pregnant can be a real thing.

Does not have to be from the break shot as that gets mich harder
In the lesson video on the front page caudron starts from the rail nurse close to the corner and gets to 29
Even he runs into trouble, but he knows how to get out of it lol
Good for you with an 11
Trying to get a 10 run a day is tough enough for me
for now

On video and 30 or more point run are the only stipulations

Ouch man I didn’t see that. I could have easily drawn to short rail also. I remember that shot too. Im still trying. I need a ref to count and call the hits. Lol
I been getting 15-25 point about half the time. I’ve got 17-18 before I had to spread them a couple times too.

I got to 30!
I figured I had to get way better at the small points to have a chance at 30 so I practiced for hours and got to where I could run 15-20 before I had to spread the balls. This run I ran 28 before I had to "break em" lol. #24 & #28 made me sweat but #30 rolled up perfect.
It really helped starting on the other side of the table because the first gather shot usually was across the table rather that long ways so it was way easier to get them back together that way. I learned a lot about short angles, banks, controlling hits on both balls, speed control, spin shots, draws, masse shots and mostly that I could use work in all those areas.

Excellent job man
I was going to suggest playing them toward the corner and short rail instead of away but you figured it out
Pm me your address for the wall banner
