I remember when a team ran a game straight out, even from post
8, it got standing ovations from the crowd, because back in the
80's and early 90's it was extremely rare. Now, it occurs every
day.
The early games offer run-outs so much more than the late games,
if you ask me. You see a lot more "free" points, or
"junk" points, GIVEN to a team these days in the earlier
games, give some weaker players. One thing I don't like about
SOME frontons, is that, sure, they put the weak players in the
lower posts, and the stronger teams in the higher posts, but all
that does is FAVOR the higher post team. If they get in, they
have no competition in the lower post 1, 2 or 3, and it's an easy
run-out, a low pay, and not even worth the bet.
It seems you see a lot of 1 and 2 run-out in the early singles
games too, and just in the earlier single games in general. Same
reason.
