Has a third party verified playing surface, the pocket openings at 5" and shelf size depth. Is the table still there to confirm any of this? Just wondering.

Has a third party verified playing surface, the pocket openings at 5" and shelf size depth. Is the table still there to confirm any of this? Just wondering.
That scratch where the ball spun/turned/scratched was not even on the same table as the 626 was it? I thought that 434 was in December at the other venue.

I also don't think the bizarre scratch was the same table as the 626.
That scratch was on the same table as the 626 -- the front table at Easy Street in Monterey, CA.
For the run with the scratch shot, the balls were racked at the actual head end of the table (nameplate end). For the 626, the balls were racked at the foot of the table. Since the table has no ball return, there is no practical difference between the ends.
Thanks for the clarification, Bob.

So that whole wrong end of the table stuff was another nothing burger?

This is a good point
I would also add If they were picking up the loose break ball to polish with their wax also, then there might be more room for larceny with the bca/predeter editing p.r. team. The first time I played John in the tar match in Louisville, Kentucky he pulled a classless move after he hooked himself in the ten ball. He went to grab a piece of chalk and then literally swiped the chalk towards me, the piece of chalk went winging past me - missing my noggin by only inches. I asked him bout it I said wow throwing chalk at me?he said it was an accident ( I don't believe it was) as when I called him out on it he asked if I was going to make a production about it. These are coward moves that players employ to upset there opponent and get them off there game. It was ok however I got the $. I would have collected the dough on the 2nd all around had he not argued bout rules he already knew (jump cue) and then proceeded with his name calling. I do not hate him but people who are so weak as to try and upset their opponent with name calling or arguing bout rules(no intent to actually back it up) are cowards. Finally Chad told John to shut the )&^% up and play pool. Oh it's on tape so I think the bca and predetr pr teem' can certify that it did actually happen. John Schmidt is a nit period. I can only hope he is able to improve on his attitude while at the table - being tested from a player of = uh billity' or he will need more than overseas sponsors and bca bureaucrats to save him. On the last tar match North KC,MO in an interview John admitted that he was trying to upset me at 9-9 in the last leg of the one pocket where he went for his little jump cue move. Truly sad for mr.400 to get run over playing against me in a set to 400. One stroke and Lou - I do appreciate your candor through this rude phony intrusion on Mosconi's 100=+ year old record.

well
well I can agree with you on one point - xardarx is a troll and should be banned from az. I put him on the ignore list - where he belongs. But schmidt is not a champion, nor does he or "the powers that be" as felicity stated - deserve to taint Mosconi's record through some sort of pr stunt to promote john's new cue sponsor.
Records are not based on if we like JS or not. I never met the guy. Heck, he might not like me
So, facts are facts, they don't change because you have an ax to grind.
There are a few pool players I don't care for much, but I don't make a history of chasing them around and telling them what they did wrong, and telling them they are not champs when they win. But, enjoy, I'm sure JS will walk away from the record he set if there are just a few more posts. You're getting so close, don't stop now boys !!

Doubtful. :thumbup:
gonna top a thousand posts!
The thread is on track to top a thousand posts, plenty of conjecture when most of us have no solid information. If there is a jump or blur on the video some of the "john is god" crowd will swap sides. If there is a clear and unedited video released it might sway a few of the doubters. Video from one camera off to the side as I understand this to be can be blocked a good bit of the time so doubters may not jump on the bandwagon when they still can't see the entire run.
Gotta admit, I fall somewhere in the middle until I get reports on the unedited video from people I know and respect. Until this run went past 450 or so I suspect it was one more practice run in john's mind. Did he nudge a ball without thinking or something similar? Maybe, only john knows and quite a few people know he doesn't qualify for sainthood.
This should be worth another five to ten posts, we are almost in the home stretch for 1000!

That is just this thread....gotta be a thousand pages on the 626 by now.
Yeah you’re right, every thread about it has blown up for a time...then they died down and after a bit someone showed up asking where the video was...and off to the races again lol. I am so ready to see the video. I think I’ll find a real pretty girl and make her watch it with me as a first date.
