My first attempt at Straight Pool

Well, I didn't have too long to practice before our league game tonight but I did improve my high run to 22! My run was ended by scratching. I had an awkward little shot that needed some follow but I miscued & rolled the CB in after the OB!:(

I felt good after that little session though & went on to win my 4 racks of 8ball in our match. I just want some more time to play 14.1!
 
Me and my brother are hooked on straight pool also since the first time we played it. We suck at it, but its all about the fun! We play 8,9, straight, and just started one pocket and we play straight more than anything.

I have also found out it helps me big time with learning my combos. I'm learning more rail shots and safties with one pocket.

I have found out early on I tried to break the balls up too much and I would sew myself up in the pile. Once I try to just pick balls off the pile I've shot much better.
