I suspect the balls aren't reacting exactly how he'd expect and he's now playing a bit timid because of it. That 7 ball shot in rack 11 was mind-bogglingly bad. He needs to snap out of it quick because time is running out.He's down 6-5, and he's given away three games he should have won.
That's also a good point. Shane's had, what, one wet break?I'm seeing them struggling with the break. My question: why don't they use the same principle of 9 ball break?!
Aren't you forgetting no one? Ralf Souquet...?While Efren is, to me, the greatest ever at 8-ball, SVB isn't too far behind.
I don't feel I opened a discussion of the 8-ball GOAT. I only noted the greatest and the guy who was about to play his semifinal.Aren't you forgetting no one? Ralf Souquet...?
So much for boring huh,lolWow! Talk about a wild finish. The double hill rack comes down to safety play, and Szewczyk wins the race to the shot, but then he misses and SVB escapes.
I believe I heard one of the commentators say it rained a few hours the night before the SVB/Szewczyk match. I wondered why they didn't use the second ball break, since the head ball break wasn't working at all.What caused all that? It was almost like the balls were sticky. There was something different, it wasn’t two guys playing poorly.
Right on, brother. This was the only extended safety battle I've seen this week, but for it to occur at double hill in the semis made it a real treat.So much for boring huh,lol
