How long do you think the Earl/Shane set will take tonight? I'm thinking between 4-5 hours. Johnnyt

16-20 racks per hour.

16-20 racks per hour.

3 to 3.5 minutes a rack? I don't think so. Johnnyt

That's my average, and they play a little faster. Doesn't take long to run out a rack of 9 ball on a bar table, and those two will be running out a lot of racks.

16-20 racks per hour.

thats about right, it takes 60-70 minutes to play a close race to 11 of 9 ball.

I hate people that ask a question and then say, "That's not right" like I just did. Thank you both for the feedback. Johnnyt

I was asking myself the same question earlier. I came up with 3.5 - 4 hours for 9 ball. If it's a blowout, it'll be less.

Add a break or two and I think it's safe to say JohnnyT, that your wife will be tucking you in by midnite with your warm milk!

Thank you. Chalk one up on my side of the board.
With winner break it could be something like 30 to 18. Johnnyt

Thats how I always had it figured too, 20 games an hour.

Here is a match of Shane playing Earl earlier this year. I think it was a race to 25 in 10-ball (49 games) that took a little over 3 hours.

Here's how it went- first hour, twenty games. Second hour, 15 games and they took their break during that hour. Total match of 20-30 took 2hrs 45 minutes.

This is what i would say, when we would play races to 11 in our room , it was always around an hour or less, depending on the score.

But we couldnt put racks together like these two can, so it mite take them even less time !

You were right. I was wr...wro...wron...I just can't say it. Johnnyt

That's all right, just blame it on age. :thumbup: (age has to be good for something now and then)

edit: I was way off on the amount of packages they would run.
