A 100 ball run is what....7 1/2 racks....if you can do that, you can do more....but what you have done is accomplish something already, and twice now....something that I'd guess 1 out of 100 players can do, or have done. AND since you did it a second time now, pretty close to your first one......I believe they'll be coming up with regularity.
Don't stop learning though, because we never know it all.

Thats quite the feat. Only the top pros and a few top amatuers have accomplished that on a 9' table.

I was on a similar high some time ago when I had a total clearance on a 12' snooker table. Now 30 years later I can still remember every shot of that run.

But when I switched to pool about 8 years ago I have never been able to go past a third rack in 14-1.

Congrats. Brad

Hey! Update:
On Saturday I won 14-1 extraleague tournament while running 78 in the second inning of the finals against my rival in the race for national team for european championships. Its my new high run in the tournament play and it could have been better were it not for the ball jumping out of the pocket. And in the following days I made another two runs worth noticing - 74 and 70. Guess another triple digit run may come soon..

Marek -- How kum a (pool) ball can get the yips, ie jump out like that -- this sort of thing shoodnt happen -- its like playing chess with dice.
Perhaps its the krappamiths -- u know, the modern vitreous ball with the bakelite center.
I bet we never ever heard of a ball having the yips in the oldendayz -- ie when we had a hard heavy solid bakelite ball.
"Solid" here meenz 100% bakelite -- ie no layering.
"100%" here meenz no krap -- ie clay filler etc iz ok.
Sorry to get off topik -- except it aktually did affekt your 14.1 -- and it affekts everyone else's pool too.
Or iz it just the tables.
