That was the worst display of pool I've ever seen. Gabe is a friend and I don't mind saying that I've never seen him play like that. They both shot shots that even I wouldn't shoot when gambling. It looked like an APA match. For anyone trying to defend it as "they were both tired, shooting at their hole, etc...", that is pure BS. These two guys got paid $4000 to put on an exhibition. What they put on was a clown show.
If at your job you are getting paid to do something, which is put forth 100% effort for something, and you don't do it, then generally you get fired. Maybe I'm wrong, but just how many free $4000 opportunities do these 2 get? I don't mind them chopping the $4000, I expected it, but for godsake have the smarts to at least try. Not only did they probably cost themselves any further opportunities like this, but might have cost people that actually give a sh*t, like SVB, future opportunities. Redonkulous.
