Alex runs 234

Alex P. comes into Q-masters to practice before his match. He sets up a break shot and runs 234......Diamond Blue Label, 4.5" pockets.

he is very talented in every game.....if pool was actually a sport, he would be top 5 money winner without question

just think if he was warmed up ....:D
 
my colleague just called Alex to tell him his latest JB Case is in. Alex says, "my match was called gotta run" (my colleague forgot that Alex is at the US Open)

This 8x16 should be enough to hold all of his cues....

You don't get to witness many 200+ ball runs.

Do you get a warm 'n fuzzy when you see a 147 ?

Beside that Alex's run is far more impressive than a 147. 147s are great but at the end of the day they are making 37 balls where 15 of them are respotted in the same place during the run. Really cool to watch but certainly not the same as running 200+ balls.

Lol. You're kidding, right?

Hey Mr. Six -degrees of everything is about me...what's that got to do with him running 200+ balls?

A couple. He hardly plays snooker. How many times have snooker players run 17 balls into one pocket? How many times have they beaten the 11 ball ghost?

How many times have they run 200+ balls in straight pool.

Let's have an all-around for $1,000,000 you get Ronnie or whatever snooker pro you want.

Alex will likely crucify them in every pool game and might hold his own in snooker.

The kid barely plays straight pool and put up a WORLD CLASS run for practice.

Your maximum is ONLY because that's the highest points you can get. Show me someone who can run all the reds and all yellows. I agree that running a 147 shows incredible cue ball control and pack management. It's cool especially when it's Ronnie doing it.

But in no way is it harder than running high packages in 9 and 10 ball, or high runs in straight pool in my opinion.

I wonder if Alex has ever run a 147 in Snooker? I have a feeling he hasn't (and obviously he plays and has played more Snooker than virtually any other pool player)

Anyway, the whole Snooker 147 versus 14.1 run count debate has been done a million times. Maybe Dr. Dave's table difficulty factor multiplied by a new kind of Fargo-rate can figure out the precise run equivalency and let us know :grin-square:

That's a good point. I would like to know what the TDF factor would be.

I think Alex has had one 147 iirc.

That'll end the debate right there . In 14.1 you have "insurance" balls , often. To do 147, you gotta play shape for one ball every other shot .
Never mind that the tables are longer and tighter.
I doubt if someone can do two 147's in one inning .
We sure know, several have done 200 twice in one inning .
DR Dave should settle this.
 
Just one 147.....not bad for a pool player.

....surprised you didn't tell JB about only 36 balls made in a maxi.
