All Time High run - 212

So far this year - 163
 
Mine is 55, but I don't expect to beat it any time soon. I did that on a loose 8' table, but now I play on much much tougher equiptment than that. My high run on a triple shimmed GC II is probably in the twenties. I won't start keeping track until I get over 40.
 
I wanna say either 21 or 22.........But I dont get to play much 14.1 nor do I get to play much on a 9 ft.......mainly barboxes in my area
 
I played in a straight pool tourny up in the northwest a few years ago, race to 100 points, and i had thought i started my run on 49 so i shook the guys hand after i ran 51 more balls, but apparently i started on 48, so i needed 52, so i got down and hit my out ball dead into the rail. So yea, my high run is 51 :D

You may want to look into the straight pool forum. There is a list of high runs for each year. But 102 to answer your question.
 
127....I was 2 in the hole going to 125 and got out. By far my best run. Shame is we just don't play as much as 15 years ago.

heres a link my friend sent me about an upcoming 14.1 tour up here...

I guess I gotta start practicing 14.1 again :D
 
John Schmidt is coming out with a new DVD where he runs 100 several times. See the post in the straight pool forum.
 
I posted a year or so ago at 91, and still the same since I rarely play anymore but in the 7 games I played so far this year, my high run is 52 and I'M HAPPY TO HAVE THAT for how much I play.

no-sho
 
mine is 67, It is a lot harder than I ever thought it would be. I play pretty good pool and thought heck I can run a hundered balls. Yea right.... LOL
 
Highest run 100.

I know it sounds fake to run 100 on the nose but I chickened out. When I got to 88 with an open rack every one in the room stopped playing because my opponent told everyone in the room I was going to run 100. I got fairly straight in with 3 balls on the table the other two were a perfect key ball/break ball. I could have force followed my 100th ball. I chickened out and just rolled the ball in and settled for a bank on the key ball. I don't think I could have lived with myself running 99. My highest run prior was 54 and I ran 100 on a tight gold crown. Maybe if I fired it in I could have run 200.

14!!!!!!!!!!!! yay!!!! screwed up the break out.
 
Well, I guess mine is 15 because, even though I'm interested in 14.1, I have no freakin' idea how to set up for the break and haven't ever tried it. :eek:

I can run fifteen off the first break pretty easily FWIW, so I guess if I learned how to break the second rack I'd be knocking on the door of say...16 or 17 in a few months! :D
