I've been playing BCA league here in Calif. for many years...Last night I saw something that isn't that great an event but what's the odds on it happening??
One of our players played 4 games....Here's how his games went....With practically all his balls on the table he kicks the 8 in out of turn and loses...The next 3 games go like this....His opponent's kick in the 8 out of turn with almost all the balls on the table...

He goes 3 win's and 1 loss with all 4 games having 8 ball kicked in out of turn...Pretty unusual....

Anyone else have any strange stories to tell like this one?
 
Check out my thread 'Can you top my bad luck???'

This is the kind of bad luck I had been having consistently for 2 months in tournaments.
 
Last week I did 4 break and runs (8-ball) and lost 3 of them with scratch on the 8-ball out of 7 games played.
 
Playing 8-ball, player A breaks and the cue ball jumps off the table and lands in the opponents cup of beer. Next rack player B breaks and the cue ball jumps off the table and lands in his beer again. Stickiest cue ball ever. :)
 
last week went 0 wins for 6 losses in league. All of which I ran out to the 8 and missed the 8 with my opponent then finishing out the rack.
Week prior to that, won 2 games and then got broke and ran on the next 4.

Shitty luck....
 
My wife and I were practicing one night at the bar. She is lining up a long draw shot and hits it as hard as she can. Well, she strikes under the cue ball and sends it flying through the air. About that time some poor soul is walking by the table and takes the flying cue ball right in the nuts lolol. What made it even funnier was that about 20 people saw it and half the bar was laughing.

You lost 6 games by running all the balls and then missing the 8? No offense but it seems that's less bad luck and more to do with you choking on the 8 ball and not bearing down, or maybe taking it for granted? Were you under a lot of pressure? I would understand if you somehow got hooked every single game on the 8, that's tough luck but straight up missing all 6? Again, not trying to be offensive.
