i'm pretty happy with myself. was in a zone like ive never been in. normally when i hit 25 or 30 balls i'm really feeling the pressure. this time there was no pressure at all. felt like i could keep going to 50 but i just got a tiny bit off on a two shots in a row until i had no shot on the next ball. doh!

Congrats on a new high run -- and especially for the new "comfortability factor" when doing so! Sounds like you were in a zone, focused on nothing except the pattern of pocketing those balls. You surely had an open conduit to your subconscious, the muscle memory knowledge built over the years of practice flowing through it.

Congrats again!

Thumbs Up

Congrats on the run. It sure is a good feeling to run numbers during a match.
Keep up the good work.

Congratulations. As the boys mentioned, runs in competition are sweeter than runs in practice.

And the fact that you zoned out a bit is also pretty cool.

Relax, and keep them coming.
