Sounds like the Bonus Ball episode. That was quite some time ago at this point.

As the saying goes: "An athlete dies twice." His first "death" hit pretty hard.

That was a great final. Huge congrats to Hall.

Did Xpool or Digital Pool or whoever is running the stream really just cut the feed to an empty arena table just as Shane was shooting the key ball in a hill hill match against Teutscher. Seriously.

Derby City has always had the "pool room" vibe - it's part of what makes DCC the DCC, to me at least. As Fats said, "putting a tuxedo on a pool player is like putting whipped cream on a hot dog."

I’ve seen matches (one was a long SVB set, maybe against Chang, I forget the streamer) where the streamer had a TPA that was utterly ridiculous. It was like .947 the entire time and wouldn’t budge no matter what error happened.

Yeah. Filler even three fouled him leading 6-0.

“Shane shot that one like a guy who owns nine houses” lol

Yep agreed. Some guys really are just timeless. And a shout out to Accu Stats for capturing what it did back in the early days. There is basically not a single video of Mosconi actually playing competitive pool in his prime. We're very fortunate that isn't the case for some of the guys...

While I agree that legends would be legends, I think the level of play is way higher and tighter in the modern era. I love watching the old videos Accu Stats has been uploading over the past few months/years - I like watching them more so than modern pool. But I can't help but conclude that...

1. What he enjoys most about the modern game? 2. What he misses most about the vintage game (e.g., the 14.1 to 9 ball transition era)? I asked him about the top selling videos a while ago and he said they are the Z-Shot and Sigel's 150 against Zuglan. I recall he said that the top selling...

Rest easy Mika. One of the best when I really got into pool in the early 2000s. So young. Too young.

I think the Miz had the prettiest stroke as well. It looked like a toothpick in his hands, but it was as graceful a movement as anyone.

Jump to 1:20 if the time stamp didn’t work. It is, to me, a very pretty stroke. To my knowledge, this brief clip is all there is though and it isn't much. The whole video is cool. Dan D, Weenie Beanie, etc. A different era for pool.
