Undefeated, and handed Warren Kiamco a donut in the finals.
7-0 and over in about 25 minutes.

Shane on a bar table is horrific because every ball is in line
and you never have that concern in the back of your head
that he might miss. If he runs long or leaves himself a bank,
he just makes it anyway and carries on.
He makes the 4.5" pockets look like 5.5".

Good stream from TAR.
 
Watching Shane on a BB makes me want to burn my table and take up beading. Congrats Shane...AGAIN. Johnnyt
 
Congrats to SVB.

Warren and Shane both played about as perfect as could be (didn't stay for Wednesday, but at least when I watched the matches on Tuesday). They were both playing crazy awesome not missing anything.

That being said, I noticed a contrast when Shane played Warren on Tuesday. Shane was really hitting his break perfectly, controlling the spread and leaving the cue ball perfect over and over again on that tiny Fisher-Price sized table. Kiamco was breaking much harder, like you would on a big table. I think this, the break, is where Shane really owned it from what I observed.
 
Congrads too shane. Hope my buddy bergman takes one hole and 9 ball but we will see

Way to go Shane... ya gave 'em another lesson. Congrats on the win...
 
In a TAR interview Shane once mentioned that he grew up playing on BBs and his favorite game is BB 8-ball. To hear a top pro say his favorite game is BB 8-ball was a real surprise.
 
Congrats to Shane. Its a job to him but he really looks like he enjoys it. Nothing like loving your job :thumbup::thumbup:

It's not surprising coming from Shane. He is known as one of if not the best BB 8-ball player for quite a while. His first big win was the Windy City tourney on bar boxes.

Dennis tried him a few years ago in Las Vegas playing 8-ball on a BB during the Nationals 8-ball Championships . Dennis had zero chance. I watched one or so of their sets. Shane broke and ran every rack he broke.

All the stars lined up

We all SVB grew up in the league system dominating BB play. His favorite game is BB 8 ball. But the last star to align was Warren Kiamco.

If you watch TAR podcast 39? I think Shane asked who efren liked to play bc he knew he was gonna win. Then when they asked shane he said Warren. Lol but I guess that's just a case of "he's got ur number" kinda thing.

So finals SVB on a BB and playing Warren. Gotta be a bookies worst nightmare.

Wow congrats Shane! That man is a machine. I was just looking at the brackets for the tournament here: http://www.ctsondemand.com/TournamentHome.aspx?TournamentID=1778d7cc-3490-4ba6-b0a6-91a755f0956f And He's undefeated so far in both 10-ball (which he won), and 9-ball, which he is currently in the finals. That's 16 matches won and zero loss. Incredible. Bow down to the master!

Someone having to beat Shane twice in the 9-ball finals would be like trying to climb Mt. Everest in sandals. He's playing rather nicely. :-)
