As always, I look forward to your feedback, comments, questions, complaints, and requests.

Enjoy!

We called a Guy out about it at the Club and we have someone else rack the Balls and All of a Sudden he is having a lot less "Luck" at his "game".

What does he do when he gets "lucky?" Pattern racking, ball gapping, something else?

Pattern Racking mostly and on occasion gapping, but not nearly as often. It depends on who's watching and their level of knowledge on it.

Agreed. Some ball positions are required by the rules. The rules also require that the remaining balls be placed randomly, and not in a purposeful arrangement.
