Weeks best break

[lennon11]

played again today,something has clicked for me...made 70 then later equalled my highest break of 119(for the 3rd time!),then made a 93 missing the last black for another century.never made more than one century in a day..think that might be my best chance.

I am normally a regular 100 break maker but i was well pleased with myself this week as i knocked in 110 with my 9ball cue. Was trying as a bit of a challenge. Just thought i would put it up as its been one of my best breaks considering. lol.

Show-off
Actually that might be a useful excercise for those of us who always leave ourselves too straight on the next ball ... did you consciously think to leave yourself a good angle every shot?

A 27 and a 32..

Well the art in any break-building is to play for areas and margin for error. Always leaving angles on the colours to be able to maneuver the cue ball, unless of course you need to be straight.
I always try to play for choices of reds, meaning, look for way that you will be on a red if you under-hit or over-hit your positional shot.

I hit a 51 on Thursday night, my 2nd half century! I'd been playing awful in the 5 frames I'd played with my dad but in the last frame it all changed! I was unlucky not to get more really. I was left with a half-ball pink into the middle from it's spot and the last 2 reds didn't go. Screwed into them but the white stuck on it! I was chuffed with my 51 though!

Well cant call it a break but none the less after five years away from the game and just starting back i managed 24 consecutive blacks off the spot , ok not great but i,m getting there .

Donty want to hijack the thread so i,ll just post an update well i managed 33 blacks off the spot today , so all in all pretty chuffee considering .

Just a little update , i managed 87 blacks off the spoot today . . ....

[Theguywithaplan]

the week had 30,31,32,33,35,36,36,38,38,40,53,65,103 keeping a track of my 30 plus breaks every week to note my improvement

Gettin there

Had a 65 on Wednesday only to miss a fine cut on the black even ended up on the next red to make matters worse lol

Thats now my second highest break.... with my highest being 86... this one was a nightmare... my mate broke off, then I started potting... couldn't miss... even the split into the pack worked out perfectly. No ball was any closer to the cushion than the black on its spot. Potted a red to screw up for the pink just beside the blue spot to hit 87 and caught it too sweet and went in off... totally gutted lol

After my previous club tightened their pockets... with extra rubber and no templates everyone was struggling to hit 20... totally ruined my confidence... so in our new club, run by Eddie Irvine... I've had 38, 39, 40, 41, 43, 45, 48, 49, 50, 51, 53, 56, 59 and the 65.... all within the past month... so happy my confidence is returning

Got a nice 43 tonight along with a few mid 30s, getting more and more consistent

[DarrenReeder94]

30 somthing.. other day on lineup...did the 30 somthing on my first line up in AGES then i got like 10's after that >< lol..

[Luke Hooper]

Meh I can't get a break above 25 recently... Just what I need knowing in playing dave Harold in a couple of weeks...

[JRobbins]

made a 99 on the lineup... was so annoyed to miss out on the century

[Luke Hooper]

nice JRobbins, unlucky mate it will come soon

i was determined not to let a 21 break be my highest break so far this week so went back the club about 10.30 and have just come home, now have a high break of 36, 34, 31, 27, 27, 25.

still nothing substancial but its better than hitting 20 and falling off which is what ive been doing recently

[JRobbins]

nice one Luke, credit for the determination there mate
I know exactly what you mean though, it can be so frustrating when you just can't seem to get a sizeable break together even when deep down you know you're capable of doing it.
