if the rule was start the clock when hit the cueball after the break shot then i would have got in the 30s and loads more players would have and some of the guys in the 20s..

especially if clock starts from the break
my club was clock starts soon as you hit the break shot by time balls stopped and got your bearings thats at least 5-10 seconds..
unless pockets very big and slow tables to get 30 seconds and better virtually impossible
if the likes of chris melling,rob mckenna etc got these times i could probably just about accept it
its so easy to cheat the time or the rules and it seems most have done that!
Shame I totally agree Daz!!

I thought the same when I saw the times. It does seem a little implausable that 3 people could do this in such a quick time. As people already said 5-10 secs for white to stop so with 6 off break thats approx 2.5 seconds per shot. Your not gonna have 9 perfect stop shots especially when the black has to be potted last. Unless all balls stay in middle of table!!!!
Like someone else said lets get those three together and have a shoot out.

Also look at the gap between all three and the 4th. Too much of a gap if you ask me. I can believe one player would be able to do 30 secs but not three.

This was to easy to manipulate!
Surely there should be a play off for the first prize! the top 3 at least with 3 attempts each...
If one has genuinely done that time and doesn't win then it makes a joke of the whole thing!

the guy that done it plays for rileys b team in the watford league in division 2 and from what ive heard is not capable of getting anywhere near that time! i got just over 40 secs and if i gave the guy timing it a back hander he would have put down 29secs but the thought didnt even cross my mind. in my opinion this guy should be made to do it again infront of someone and apoligise when he cant get anywhere near that time!

I did it in 28 seconds flat but didn't think anyone would believe me so thought it best to not publish it! (Honest).... [ This message was edited by: simmo77 on 2009-11-04 10:57 ]
