SVB vs. Chinakov updates

Shane just hasn't been the same since he said in the TAR podcast that there are other things in life than pool. Can't say I blame him. He's still our #1 player for now, but I agree with the statement above that he's not head and shoulders above the rest of the field anymore.
 
That a boy just post to argue. Grow up.

You're a funny guy , I guess you have been stalking the forum for yrs before joined to come up with these conclusions
Shane's a great player but that's as far as it goes thiers many more people who do more for the game than he does

GAFF table ( billiard cloth speed, dead rails ), PHONY break rule ( Never been a break rule like that in the history of pool ).
Bring the russian here and BET some $$$. Race to 100. I'm in for 10k
USA dont need no phony russian bs to win.GET-IT-ON!!!.

GAFG they have changed break rules for yrs in the box 9 on the spot magic rack and so on then change the tables from GC3 to Daimond different rails and pocket shelves
Earl set a table up and beat Shane like a step child
Why is it so f-:?ing hard to believe that someone can out play Shane he doesn't walk on water and he's got a little dog in him that's been proven on more than one occasion
Get over it

Because he is not. But it doesn't matter. For his fans here in this forum he is still the best player in the world and no one can beat him in a race to 100, or 200, or 1000....but every match should be played on the right table, with the right cloth, the right lights, And now, the right color of the cloth !!!!! Only tournament blue !!!!!!!!!!!!! Pool should not be played on green cloth !!!!!!!!!

These guys are really funny.

The only thing guys like you show is that you know nothing about playing real pool. Watch the match. He does not outplay Shane. He plays a lot of bad safe's and dogs a lot of balls.Name a match that has been played on billiard speed cloth with dead rails AND break outside the box. There has never been one, plus, they dont tell Shane about the break rules till late wednesday nite. Its BS. I dought you gamble. Wouldn't know a gaff tbl from a bumper pool tbl. Bring the russian here. Play on a real table with real rules and you and I can bet 10k or more. GET UP!!
ps
Look at your own words 'Earl SET UP a table ' . ONly way Earl hade a chance. Had Shane had as much time on the table as Earl, he would have prop won. Give Shane as much time on that chit tbl as the russian and Shane robs him!

I agree with what you said about the break rule. It wasn't good at all. But these things should not affect a "Great" player's game so much. You said Chinakhov dogged lot of balls and played bad safety shots. I guess you watched the match. So, what about Shane's misses and really bad position play ? He played three easy back cuts at 2 diamonds and missed them. The one on the side was also an "amateur" scratch and a really bad hit. Watch the 7 he missed at 45:00. And the 9 at 1:19:40 !!!!!!

This is not a "great" player's performance. And has nothing to do with break rules or cloth, etc.... He has been playing like that for about one year.

I think you know. But you don't want to believe what is happening.

Just... stop...

Two tough opponents and the match had a winner. Next match

I agree with both of you. They played on a short table and I'll admit it played funny. 9' diamond race to 30 in thr USA I'd bet a large sum of money on shane. But they didn't and shane lost. I gurantee shane got paid an appearance fee for traveling.

Shane didn't play great. Thats true. Watch the balls he missed. Most of them were due to skid ( new super fast cloth will do that ) If Shane had the same time on that piece of junk table as the russian, and had known about the break rule , he would have had a good chance to win. After all the misses and bad safes, it was 15-15. Then the break kicked in. adv russian. It was an ambush from jump street. I've played on all kinds of tables for 40 years+. If you play a good player on his home court, he is the favorate. I've lost to players in their home room on tables they play on every day. If I got them to come to my room or a neutral room, I usually won....most would not leave their home court....another definition of a 'nit'.
I hope Shane gets a chance to play this guy again.

I don't think you meant to say "skid".

Rather than fixating on things, such as how the newer cloth slid in that particular match, why not appreciate the fact that the exhibition even occurred and that some of us were actually fortunate enough to witness it.

Relax man, life is tough enough as it is. :smile:
 
European championship with similar ruleset is every year on that table brand. Only break box is 1/3 of the kitchen area, not 2/4

You always like throwing that match between Earl and Shane on that circus 10' like it's suppose to be some real beating or something, yet you always seem to forget the 2 beatings Shane gave to Earl on a 9'. If Earl beating Shane by a score of 100/20 was like beating a step child....what do you ha e to say about Shane beating Earl 100/60 on a 9ft the first time they played....a horse f%&*ing?
 
Interesting thought

Can anyone name a sport where a player or teams main weapon (tennis/big serve, pitcher/dominating fast ball, etc) is taken away from them at the start of a game or match?

Not a Shane hugger as some have suggested about those who support Shane.

Just a question?
