Now this has to be the worst example of nit-pickin' I've ever seen.

Start at the 1:36 minute mark: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vhwW98thfx8

You cannot convince me that he couldn't have opted to break ANY of those racks he turned down and at least got as good a result as he did on the one he accepted.

This sh*t is getting out of hand.

Wow, that's quite something. I watched it very quickly fast-forwarding through, and it still took too long :D

Could try replacing the racking template, the balls, maybe next the cloth and finally the table.

Just a few seconds under 18 minutes from pocketing the last ball in Game 14 to striking the CB on the break for Game 15.

And then, for Game 17, that measurement was 8½ minutes.

One of the arguments for using templates is that they speed up the match.

Yep.

Tournaments need to start implementing new rules concerning the racking for the break. How do you think the spectators at that match felt after watching that fiasco?

Maybe try something like,if you think its a bad rack you can pass it to your opponent
giving them a poor rack.

When he finally decided to break he still didn't like the rack. Then he broke and made two balls.

Did either of them have a dry break? I don’t recall seeing one. To me it looked more like Jason was just breaking to break & KO was controlling his break better.

Naw, just replace the player and ALL like him. I've met him on several occasions and like I've said many times before, "his game" is not worth his "BS" as a player.

Bless that girl's heart. She showed patience beyond anything I would have done in her situation. As to Jayson, grow up life is not perfect and neither is any rack of balls. Totally ridiculous and sad..
