For all those rack mechanics out there, this worked for me many times, and if your playing a whiner or??? they will never know it, it makes complaining more difficult....
Ball diameters are All different and getting the rack to work to you advantage comes from realizing which ball patterns rack tighter or looser. When I played in the US Open years ago we always knew the table we were going to play on the next match. I would go watch the match and record racking patterns starting at the top.

Next.... watch the break and record how many balls and which balls went, I personally called it Rack/Stats. This course of action definitely works....why? Because some ball patterns rack tighter or looser than others. When I told Mike Massey about this years ago, he liked it. Never seen another do this, but never seen another player kick like Efren till???????. I got to the point on an unknown table where I would rack, go back to my seat and write down the pattern and keep results, it definitely helps. Or memorize the pattern and use it again the next time I racked
