Break-and-run games on successful breaks (made at least one ball and did not foul):
Here's a breakdown of the 215 games (for match winners and losers combined).
Break-and-run games -- The 27 break-and-run games represented 13% of all 215 games, 26% of the 105 games won by the breaker, and 24% of the 114 games in which the break was successful (made a ball and didn't foul).
With alternating breaks, B&R "packages" of the normal type are not possible. But we can still look at the breaks of a given player and see how many he ran on his own successive breaks, and we can call these "alternate-break packages." The 27 break-and-run games consisted of 2 alternate-break 3-packs (1 each by Capito and Yapp), 1 alternate-break 2-pack (by Oi), and 19 singles.
10-balls on the break -- The 10-ball was made on the break (and spotted), just once -- 0.5% of all 215 breaks.
The commentators were Mark Wilson (for 14 matches), Mike Sigel (11 matches), Kim Davenport (2 matches), Jeanette Lee (1 match), and Jerry McWorter (1 match). The referees were Ken Shuman (7 matches), Ed Liddawi (6 matches), and Jose Burgos (2 matrches). The Master of Ceremonies was Derrick Keith.
Conditions -- The conditions for this event included:
• Diamond 10-foot table. Mark Wilson said the corner pockets were 4 1/2", but they may have been a bit smaller that that;
• Simonis 860 Tournament Blue cloth;
• Aramith Tournament balls with a red-dots cue ball;
• Accu-Rack Pro10 racking template;
• referee racks with the 1-ball on the spot (2-ball and 3-ball need not be on the back corners);
• alternate breaks from anywhere behind the head string;
• jump cues allowed (a change from all previous Bigfoot events);
• foul on all balls;
• all slop counts (except spot any 10-ball made on the break, a change from last year);
• 30-second shot clock (even after the break and after push outs) with one automatic extension per player per rack; and
• lag for opening break.
