Strong Shooting Max !!! nice job, Video ?

Steve meant to say, no video no count :grin-square:
168 on a Diamond is great, having seen Max by 10-footer most of the time I would believe he shot that on a giant, had he claimed so.

Lol lol, I totally believe that Max did it he's got the goods.

Max spent quite a few hours playing at our 14.1 Challenge @ SBE burning the midnight oil til he finally qualified in the wee hours of the morning.

I just love to watch Max shoot especially when he's racking up for 14.1

I ran 19 again yesterday. I ran 13 and made a good break and 5 more for 19. The 20th shot was a sharp angle cut on the 8 ball into the corner pocket. The distance was short so the angle wasn't a real problem, but, I was jacked up over the 13 ball, not severe but still a problem. I made the shot but then the ferrule touched that 13 ball. We play all fouls. The layout was such that I would have had a good chance of running that table for 27.

Come to think of it, I guess that was only an 18 ball run. The 8 ball would have been spotted and the penalty would have been taken from the previous 19.

Steve, you shouldn't talk about your age like that. Wait... I resemble that remark! :p

Seriously, I always love reading about new highs, or personal bests achieved!

Congrats mmasou!

Lol lol yeah feels like 50 going on 85 lately ;-)
 
yesterday "I ran" 44 playing scotch doubles (changing turns) with a local pro (S.Nikitin), so that reads WE ran. Guess who missed a decent cut in the side :bash: My personal best is 47 btw :deadhorse:
 
I am new to the game of 14.1, having only played for about 7 weeks and I am at best a C player. My high run in a practice game is 18 and in a league match is 11. While these aren't very big runs, it is a start and keeps me with a goal in mind that I attain.

welcome to the game buster :)

Always a good feel to reach the first time the *2nd rack*. Way to go- 3rd rack is calling you- have a smooth stroke ^^

Put up a 42 yesterday.

Been busier than usual this year and would like to beat last year's 78.
 
wow, I have not only witnessed a run over 50 but even was part of it :D Ran 56 in scotch doubles again, followed by a mere 49. I can hope some day I will be able to connect the dots this way on my own.

This will help for sure Miki!
To play *scotch double* 14.1 is a great way to teach the game. Often it is a real eye-opener if the other guy tells you to play *another* ball- and to see finally then afterwards why :-)

keep shooting pal,
