)Congrats on breaking through the barrier, doesn't matter that it was on a 7 footer , you broke through. I kept reading that you hadn't tried again on that table because your realized that you must have been in the zone to make that happen at that time. Rest assured , that anyone that runs 100 balls will have to be in the zone to do so. Hope that helps and that you find it easier to get into that mental realm for the next time you step to the table.
Have been working out for the last few months on my table at home. Know my game from when young isn't much there anymore. Turned 70 back in Nov, and just use my time of a couple of hours 3 or 4 times a week as good for working out and better than taking walks outside in freezing weather. Ran a low 90 ball run back a few months ago and have not put together anything better than 70 much with a lot of 28's and stuff.
Got into a great run the other night of 98 and missed the key ball going to my break shot,,jawed her I did. This game can hurt your feelings at times and when it;'s all going right , it can pick you right on up again. There were as many as 4 different rooms in this small town at one time. There is one here now. but the hours are late in the evening and driving after dark isn't as easy as it once was. The thing that keeps me playing is the chance I will catch an old gear and time will become non-existent, it keeps ya young and ever mindful . Keep on playing folks

I ran a 104 on April 7th and a 56 in a match just recently.
I ran 38 in a league match on 05/16/2023. I started off the match very slowly with some unfortunate scratches. Near the end of the match I finally got my pattern play down a bit better as well as the speed of the table and started putting a few runs together. At one point I was behind almost 50-100 (in a race to 150) and ended the match 150-125 or so.
