US Open 9-ball updates thread..

[vjmehra]

Imagine doing commentary with those balls. Make more mistakes than DannyD j/k. DannyD great guy. But seriously I’d call the wrong shot 50% of the time.

have to say “well he’s playing shape on the next ball” then you can’t say the wrong thing.

For the integrity of pool-what little is left. Don’t change the ball colors again!!!

Probably about the only thing everyone here can agree on ;-)

Alex got beat 11 - 0 without making a ball WHATS YOUR POINT?

Why all the hate for a guy that has been very humble and is helping to grow/support your shitty little sport with shitty paydays?

It would take somebody winning this event 14 times to equal what he wins in 1 event.

Whats really funny is the guy just started playing pool in the last few weeks and finished 32nd - 48th and all of you want to automatically place him as a ~ 740 Fargo, there were/are a lot of players that finish equal or worse than that, and yet you all are patting yourselves on the back like your geniuses.

Take Shanes record at Mosconi and tell me with those results ONLY what type of player he is.

God damn do I hate AZB people sometimes

I agree and disagree with you, Jason
Yeah, some posters seem to think Judd should be a hardened player after four matches with a borrowed cue.., wth?
On the other hand, people have been yelling “Kill the umpire!” at baseball games for a hundred years. These are fans that love the game. I say have at him.

It is frustrating for sure, but after watching a few matches you begin to adjust

I think the Aramith Tv Pro Cup balls are the best personally, by far the easiest to see clearly on TV (slightly biased as I have a set)!

Maybe you can help me…..I haven’t figured it out yet. So I haven’t been able to adjust. Lol

was just thinking that. just seeing the players walk on and high-fiving members of the crowd. no masks. normalcy. it's brilliant

There's probably more than few broke pool table mechanics posting on here too. I bet you know some of them.

Can't say I do.

Shane up 1-0 over FSR. First rack, but Shane looks good.

3-0 SVB over Ruiz. Ruiz hasn't been at the table yet.

 

[JusticeNJ]

4-0 SVB.

Ruiz still waiting to get out of the chair.

Shane is the package delivery man.

 

[JusticeNJ]

Shane on a 5 pack right now. The racks were not easy.

The look on his face is intense.

Nice try, Tommy won the 1992 Open, Mike Pages Fargo Rating system started in 2002. 10 years later!!

Do you really think Tommy has ever played 800 speed? What about Gabe Owen or John Schmidt?

 

[JusticeNJ]

Shane finally hangs up one up, Ruiz converts and makes it 5-1 SVB.

 

[Fatboy]

Tommy has a high gear and he has had it working when he needs it many times. He has nothing to prove or some number attached to his ability. He can deliver when needed and that’s not in a number. It’s not the “how good” it’s the “come with it at thr right time” thing that isn’t ever represented by a number but by winning at the right time.

Not to mention Corey Deuel, Jeremy Jones. Many players below 800 FR have won this event.
