As I said in another topic, TV is about ratings and revenue. As someone stated before, more people were watching pool then probably before. However we all knew what would happen when a world class pool player plays a world class snooker player at pool. The pool player will win EVERY time. If Shaw plays Trump in Snooker, Trump will win EVERY time. That is what happens when people venture into a different cue sport. If I were to play Shane in regular pool even, I would get destroyed. However if I were to play Shane an Artistic Pool match, I would destroy him. Same with 3C players compared to other cue sports. However, I do think that is cool to see someone so successful in their cue sport venture into something different. You get a new perspective and respect for that cue sport.
