2016 World 9-Ball Championship

[maestro de pool]

this is the finals not a local tour

Shane must behave and play properly, its 20000$ dollars match and the world title ......dont think that he was mentally ready for this but its half way ....lets see..anyway
the Austrian acts and reacts really as a pro-player

 

[jay helfert]

No, he played Kiamco in the first streamed match Tuesday.

Thank you, I didn't see that match. I've been wrong before.

 

[nycdarkness]

I don't have a favorite in this match, but Albin has been playing well. Regardless of the winner both have played great to make it into the final.

 

[jay helfert]

OMG he's human!

Albin played the 4 to the 5 badly...make 'em pay, Shane.

 

[jay helfert]

An easy kick and Shane misses the whole ball???

 

[sjm]

Rack 11 brought us Albin's first error in position play but a good safety ensured the win anyway. Albin is executing in all parts of the game and today, he's one tough opponent. 8-3.

Albin played the 4 to the 5 badly...make 'em pay, Shane.

Shane missed that 6 ball kick by an Earl's cue-length.

 

[spartan]

Wow Shane missed chance to steal a break from Albin after missing kick on 6
Now Albin still has 2 of his breaks and Albin won the lag
Albin 8-3

 

[BRussell]

Great break by Shane, but fuks up first shot and is out of line. Gets back in line and runs out. 8-4.

Shane ordering a JTS Brown, no ice, no glass.

 

[spartan]

This is a different Shane from last year and this is a different Albin from 2014

 

[Jimbojim]

Shane needs to bring this to at least 6-8 to say that we have a match

 

[Kris_b1104]

WTF, Albin doesn't miss? This guy is nailing some long, hard shots.

 

[nycdarkness]

Everytime I watch Albin play it's amazing how just unfazed he looks.

 

[jay helfert]

Albin comes with a great shot on the three ball.

 

[arps]

that long shot on the 3 in the last rack. wow!

 

[spartan]

that long shot on the 3 in the last rack. wow!

he just nailed it like it was nothing like it was practice

 

[sjm]

Albin comes with a great shot on the three ball.

Yeah, that was some shot! This is a new improved Albin, far better than the Albin we saw at the 2015 Mosconi Cup.

3 B&R's in a row now for Shane.
