No question that was the feeling watching Schmidt on livestream, especially when the cliff came at ~490.There is something about the run attempts... the man v mountain thing, that has an almost transcendental, inescapable, can't pull my eyes away thing about it.
Admittedly, its not for everyone. But for many of us... you start to watch... and get sucked in... wondering where the cliff is.

I love it
Hell yeah.
Watching Shane warm up was entertaining enough - watching these guys go for it will be days on end of free educational greatness. Sign me up and save the drama for your mama.
I hope the high run vids will be accessible afterwards.
pj <- kudos to Lou and the organizers

Yes on the left side of the screen. It will be by racks run sometimes not total ball count.Will there be a counter on the screen tracking the run? I didn't see it during Shane's practice.

I see it now. Thanks.There was an electronic counter on the floor to the left, next to the table.

A descriptive way to put the difference. Different strokes......9ball players and 14.1 mechanics
I don't think a standard can be applied retroactively though, especially selectively.i believe he did. so did a few others in the past.
the question is not whether someone did the deed but whether it should be sanctioned as a world record or not. using some kind of standard rather than just saying it was or having one ruling party declaring it as such without a standard being followed.
The tension that builds is much like a game 7 of a major sporting event play off...or a situation like the World Series Sunday night and again tomorrow. One more game won and it continues.....or it is over.No question that was the feeling watching Schmidt on livestream, especially when the cliff came at ~490.
Please re-post the facebook page this will be happening on. Forgot to "follow it" last time.

Yep, I used Firefox and watched in a Private Window so it won’t keep any cookies. Worked fine.The-Legends-of-Pocket-Billiards-111447814343470
