SVB to Kick Off High Run Attempts

Hohmann's answer, essentially, has been "Yeah, I run more balls that way."
I think so. Bobby C. has mentioned Shane's previous best several times, and it was a few over 300, but I forget the exact number.
It’s like driving a car
Chance of a crash on a 1 mile drive is pretty low.
Chances of a crash on a 500 mile drive are 500X higher.
It’s linear without nerves. Add in nerves and lots can go wrong on a high run.
I made 53 spot shots in a row once. The 50th one I rattled in, was the most difficult-the mind can do funny things.
We’ll see,

He scratched right after taking a break. Wonder if that had anything to do with it.
At least he can say he never missed a shot...

might be a sound risk/reward calculation for a straight pool match, as in a race to 125. but that's just 8 breaks
That might be your safest bet of all time, depending on how you define "pool players."
He got to 300 doing it.
He didn't use it on every single break shot.
I know, but he must feel comfortable with it or he wouldn’t use it.
He also didn’t get stuck in the rack.
His previous high run was 304 according to night 1 commentary
True I just went back and watched them all for that run, and he used it 4 times (including the last time when he scratched)
i read that someone used Dr. Dave's Table Difficulty Factor, and this event table is rated 'very easy'. That doesn't include the cloth, just the table size, pocket sizes and shelf.
Earlier on this thread the event people thought the table should be optimized for making big runs easy.
