Never playing 9-ball again!!!

[TimKrazyMon]

I don't know about everyone else, but I'm really frickin' tired of 9-ball. Rack your own, pattern runout, blah blah. This game can't be fixed IMHO, it's boring as hell and I no longer wish to play a game where luck decides more games than skill. I'm done with 9-ball & I encourage more people to do the same.

Sounds like you just lost a set to Donny Mills.

Just curious, how often do you break and run?

 

[Demondrew]

There is a whole section here on 14.1 continous pocket billiards. Tired of luck, play some straight pool.

If you're done, I'm done! I feel your pain.

when I'm going good, maybe 1 every 3-4 racks. I'm probably a weak B in terms of speed.

Which is your game of choice now?

 

[Jason Robichaud]

He is taking up Lag pool. No luck in that! Sounds like someone just got a bad beat. Tournament or for cash?

 

[peteypooldude]

Man I do feel your pain.I think 10b is a much better game:smile:

Already started into 1-pocket, 14.1 is on the agenda as well.

 

[poolplayer2093]

luck doesn't decide more wins than skill. if it does you're playing the wrong people

 

[sfleinen]

That's why we play 10-Ball....SPF=randyg

...and 10-ball according to WPA standardized rules (i.e. call ball/pocket [no slop], called safeties with option to return it back to the shooter, etc.).

Tired of the lipsticked/Band-Aided/duct-taped 9-ball pig? Play 10-ball -- and the real 10-ball, not this Texas Express-ized crap.

To all who suggested 10-ball, I did play in the Team DMIRO event in Greensboro this past weekend. I enjoyed 10-ball very much. My finish was a little disappointing, but I was happy with my play.

 

[Underclocked]

My guess would be that if you develop your 9 ball game to the next level, your opponents will stop being so "lucky". :wink:
