Success Rate ?

One-shot success rate and Run-out rate 1
"I didn't know that !"
(Semiprofessional Pool Player, female)

Suppose you shot successfully about 2 times out of 3 shots.
Can you run-out ?

In other words,
your average success rate (for each shot) is 70%.
That means you can shot successfully about 2 times out of 3 shots.

Not bad ?

Then, how much is your run-out rate ?
(If you have a calculator, multiply 0.7, nine times.)



Surprise !
The answer is only 0.04 ( 4% ).

You have almost no chance to run-out.

So please remember that
if you want to be a good pool player,
or if you want to run-out like pros,
your success rate (for each shot) must be better than 70%.
At least 80%, or 90% if possible.

One-shot success rate and Run-out rate 2
