I think the highest run for 9 ball is only 8 racks, even though multiple videos try to claim 9 racks.
Efren vs. Busty - 8 of the runs are break'n'runs. One of them is a rack'n'run with efren getting ball in hand
off busty's scratch on the break. Busty made 2 balls on the break too. So I hesitate to call a ball-in-hand
with 7 balls on the table, part of a 9 ball package. Maybe it is. Depends on how you define it I guess.

Chang Yu-Lung - billed as 9 break'n'runs, they aren't in a row though. It's a 7 pack, then he pushes out,
the opponent passes back and he runs it. Then he runs 2 more. A game with a pushout is not a runout imo,
by any definition. The opponent had a chance. So this is just a 7 pack, and later on a 2 pack.

Danny Medina steamrolls Billy Incardona - Accustats call this an 8 pack.

Earl Strickland's 11 rack run was only filmed from the 5th or 6th rack onward I believe.
I believe CJ Wiley will be releasing a documentary with that footage soon.
In 8 ball, I think it's 8 racks. Busty had an 8-pack in his tar match vs. Alex Pagulayan.
There's also SVB vs. Biado in the recent US Open 8 ball, but it depends on whether you count
alternating break runouts as packages. Shane ran 8 in a row, and so did Biado.
Going from 2-2 to 10-10.
In straight pool it's definitely John Schmidt's 366. Danny Harriman had a false alarm where he though he'd
run more on video, but forgot to account for a miss early in the run.
In 10-ball, Shane ran a 7-pack against Earl in TAR 22. Can anyone think of a higher one?
I think he may have run 8 on TAR before but not sure.
