How do you guys do playing the 9 ball ghost on 7' tables? I get so frustrated with mine. I'm probably 50/50 or so on my buddy's 8ft table, but I can't win for the life of me on mine. I win maybe 2 or 3 times out of 10. I always end up with 2 balls frozen somewhere or at complete opposite ends of the table leaving me with a hail mary for position. Just wonderin what everone elses results were.
 
I, personally, never play bar boxes cus at my pool hall one of the 9footers are always free, but I did play some barbox 9 ball right after the US Open at Q Masters (which is where the party went). Since it was so short, I decided to breakstraight on instead of off the rail and I was blasting that rack. It also helped to get a little more movement back towards the breaking end. I don't mind a spread like this cus, hey, its a barbox right? You can reach anything. But anyway, I killed on that thing... i think I like em.
 
Playing the ghost on a 7ft table, can either make you look like a " GOD " or like a chump lol.

And it all depends on how well you are breaking. I've had a couple times where, I'm breaking and making 2 balls on the break, sometimes 3. And everything is open. It's those times where everything seems simple.

But, I've had times where I cant make crap on the break, or If i do get a ball on the break, I have two balls tied up, or something. It's days like these that make you wonder what you did to piss off the pool GOD's lol.
