Rules

Format
9-ball, race to 9 against the ghost. You break every rack.
Ball in hand
After the break you take ball in hand anywhere on the table, then must run out the rack.
Any miss loses the rack
A miss, a foul or a scratch gives the rack to the ghost. A dry break also counts as a ghost rack.
Live and unedited
Your full match is streamed live on YouTube in one continuous take. Show the empty table and rack before the first break.
Camera
One camera showing the whole table and all six pockets for the entire match.
Ranking
Most racks won. Ties: most break-and-runs, then the shortest match time.
Verification
Every result is checked by the coach from the stream recording before it counts.
