I was playing in my first 8-Ball APA tourney outside of Grove City PA about two years ago. I was one game away from being in the money. I was playing a guy who was quite a bit better than me. We were hill-hill.
He plays me safe, and I return the favor, snookering him about one inch behind one of my balls on the bottom rail, about 1/2 diamond from the corner pocket. His only other OB was on the other end of the table, right smack on the head spot, and the 8-Ball was tied up with one of my OB's. near the bottom rail.
The guy shrugs his shoulders, says nice safe, and just smacks cue ball. It goes 4 or 5 rails, knocks in his OB in the side pocket, and whitey goes right down and breaks up the 8 ball cluster leaving him a gimmie to cinch the set.
What bad beats have you guys had.
