DAMN! :eek:

I've managed to get very close to 3 a few times in 9 ball and I've done 3 in a row at 8 ball. All on 8 footers.
 
I've won 5 racks in a row but i wouldn't exaclty say i ran them all. 1st rack i broke and ran out, then i had three 9's on the snap and then broke and ran out the last rack.

Sorry to say, I haven't run as many racks as I've had 'racks' run from me!

exactly....

Maybe 3 racks in 9 ball. I always loose position on the 1 and having to push or pay a safe somewhere
 
9 ball - 9' : 10
9 ball - 7' : 7
8 ball - 9' : 7
8 ball - 7' : 6
10 ball-9' : 3
Rotation-9': 2
14.1 - 9' : 87
 
I managed to do it 2 times in a row on 3 occasions while just break and run.

against the ghost, I almost did a 3-pack once but I choked on the 9.:D
 
ive done 2 a couple times at 8 ball. i dont normally play 9ball but ive never run consecutive racks at it so my highest is 1
 
I can't exactly remember how many times the total number of Break N' Runs I had. but I can give you the recent ones, in a span of 6 months (2-3 times a month during weekends, atleast 3 hours of play). I don't get to play much pool as I did before, so spare me.

9ball on 9 footers - 2 break and runs.
8ball on 9 footers - 2 break and runs
rotation on 9 footers - 1 break and out and 1 out.
(IIRC, I think I had my first 1 out (after my opponent's break) when I was still in college. the table layout was a sellout. easy to run,lol). though I remember having some decent runs ( 7-8 successive balls) and some other shots (caroms and combos) which are much better.

I have broken and ran 5 racks twice on a 9ft playing 9 ball and broken and ran 8 and out twice playing one pocket. I dont really play on the bar box so I cant say on them.

The trick of a 9-ball break is to break softly and make the wingball and get position on the 1-ball. If you break hard you will lose positoin or snookered yourself.
