Biggest Package Run Against you?

Not entirely sure but I’d say I’ve had 6 or 7 against me a few times and once I was 10 ahead and only shot once(a kick) before I was down 2. That 12 ahead wound up a draw, we both agreed to quit after 8ish hours and we never played again, bummer.

I'd quit breathing before I took on that kind of stress.

3, maybe 4.

I'm not so good that I play too many people capable of better than that...

FWIW, I've only put a 3 pack on someone once.

I've had a 4 pack and I've given a 4 pack.

EDIT: In the 4 pack against me it was a race to 13 for $100, we were tied 4-4, he won 13-4, he caught a gear.

I was young and dumb and had a good backer that night. I had the worst of it for sure but still could've won if I didn't miss a ball when I was +10.

a friend hit me with 120 something in straight pool. i could beat him in 10-ball and one pocket, but almost never in 14.1. it's a beautiful game, but not when parked in the chair that long

Not sure in 9ball, but there's an element of randomness involved. I'm no pro but I once ran a seven-pack in about 2000. It included a nine on the break and three early combos on the nine. I recall giving up a five-pack to Mika Immonen in about 2004, but I don't recall anything more than that. In straight pool, I've had to sit and watch three runs of 200+ against me, two of them by Tony Robles and one by Mika Immonen.

As a live fan of tournament play, I was present for Appleton's world record of 200 at straight pool. At rotation pool, I've seen two different eight-packs. One of them was by Souquet at 9ball and the other by Dechaine at 10ball. Although many have offered that Lassiter once ran a 21-pack, the longest fully verified package I know of on a nine-footer was the fifteen-pack by Niels Feijen in 2003.

According to an AZB website article on 2/2/2003:

In a 'challenge match' against French player Donald Du Bois, Feijen broke and ran 15 consecutive 9-ball racks on a regulation 4 1/2 X 9' table.

Didn't CJ tell a story about him running a ten pack on Busty and then Busty doing it back right behind him?

I also recall hearing Archer running out a set (8, 9, or 10 racks) and beating Busty. Then Busty asked him to double up on the next set. I like that one.
