You got it, you got it.
Are you in on the new pro tour in the main forumha ha ha
Don’t know nuthin’ about that, just the 14.1 thing.
Lou Figueroa
It is good that you can at least - question why (along with many others) they choose to not release the unedited footage for sale to 'Open Public', there was just a constant theme of who really cares if it's true or not - 65+year old standing record from yer fellow forms of dimly lit posters - that I did not care for? I think that mentality is just another attempt at sweeping the dirt under the rug, it does not matter if it's regulars or unleaded who have posted - this is still the longest running thread (directly related to Pocket Billiards) - in az's history. Straight Pool is played World wide, I was in Asia and the main Pool Room they were playing - guess what - 14.1. So while the here in the States Organized Pocket Billiards has been demoted to mostly bar leagues - in other Country's they have not forgotten about 14.1. It sounds like you suffer a bit from short attention span deficit - order, so again take a look at the bigger land - all over Europe and Asia (organized 14.1 leagues). I don't know how many true 14.1 students out there - or as u bangers say 'die hard fans' - lol - but kinda bitter. 1 thing's for sure yer not ONE of them - but there are more than u know. I uh purciate yer candor. But ur an or' rather than can'. People with short attention span - are usually interested in 'get rich quick schemes' i.e. claiming to have run 626 - only to hide the unedited evidence from the people. I really think u and book collector - should go to their next 626 theater show.

Unless he’s offering a million for running 527, or 627, or 769 balls, I doubt anyone will show up. It’s too hard to do. Schmidt proved that.
I say yer incorrect, while I may not care for whirld pro's attitiude I am familiar with sum' of the prize $ logistics. Kinda some irony for j.s. - in that it's his own possible fake news scandal - that has actually inspired a Legit - 14.1 challenge - mhmm! Top talent will surface under chamberlain's 14.1 challenge, their will be unedited footage for sale - to both 'Open Public' and semi public' - when a top shelf player truly surpasses 5 centuries +. Any of yer doubts - are probly the future of 14.1 - maybe that is why yer a usedto bee - eh sunshine. Plus the only reason made it look difficult - is he did not show any shred of real evidence - that he has in fact run 626. Possible attempted theft of Mosconi's true 526 is all I saw from the bca/j.s. teem'. But yea I guess there is sum return for the 'bca/csi/j.s./ pred cue cabal'.

Hello fellow 14.1 enthusiasts, I just thought I would share with someone that last night I ran a 156. A few weeks ago I ran a 200 and caught it on tape however it was ugly as I had many difficult shots. Last night's run was smooth, the equip. I'm playing on is an early 1900's Brunswick ball return table, it has a few squirly' spots in the slate due to the age factor but besides that the table is in fine shape. The cushions are K66 and the cloth is not brand new, I might add also that this table is in a basement which makes it more difficult to disperse the rack due to humidity. Someone on this forum is allway's referring to that perfect 14.1 run (Steve Lipsky) well I realize that it is nothing like John Shmidt's 246, I have ran over 200 many times but never before did it look as easy as this particular run. I have watched John's recording of his run and he makes it look easy, what a great champion he is. I thought maybe I will make a commentary of my little 156 if anyone would be interested pM me back and I might get a hacker to show me how to display it here on the computer.
Your's truly, Danny Harriman (Bob Jewett's 14.1 challenge Champ)

I believe you are not correct.
First off, I would characterize the prize monies involved as “substantial” and more than sufficient to motivate the best players out there.
Second, keep in mind that Mosconi and Cranfield frequently put up huge numbers and while 600+ is quite a goal, it’s doable. And while it may have taken JS months and months, I think it is very possible —given all that is coming together in terms of money, equipment, conditions, and players — his record will fall in relatively short order.
That’s just my opinion... I guess we’ll all find out.
Lou Figueroa
So someone is going to put up "substantial" prize money, and have a venue for 10 or so pros who can realistically do this, and have multiple cameras on each table, and do this long enough (4 weeks?) for one of the 10 pros to break "one of the records". I'd say that's a 500,000USD expenditure. Someone is going to put up that cash just to shut up JS? I don't buy it.
A lot can happen / change in 14 years!
And where is the return? The only way someone would do this is if they were a multi-millionaire and loved straight pool, and did it as a charity. It would never make any money.
Holly molly! What happened to you?
Bingo. You are correct on all of this. Now if you and all others could just continue to post like this instead of posting anything negative then more people would love to see a very successful event. Of course some people just can't be positive and have to try to find negative or create doubt or drama when a good thing is happening. These are the same people that watch a free live stream just to post negative comments in the chat room. Those people will be remembered and be barred not only from making comments but also from even watching the stream. Continue on please.
Sure thing pal. Just let me know when you need it. I'll just add it into the rest of the free money.lolCan I hold a hundred?
