10-9 Biado Shooting

Can't find the spot on that transcription. Frankly the tournament bombing is a bigger indicator. Biado so far has done best in small engagements. Probably focuses better, gets better rolls, diminished cultural opposition for sure - whatever it takes; same with Garcia.

As the match with Gorst.... was nearing its end there was this one shot I saw at the 26:28 mark.
Biado had such confidence to draw whitey 3 around and get perfect on the 6.
When I saw that, I Knew Biado was going to win it.

That was a good shot. The crowd went nuts. Lots of Filipino fans in the audience in Jeddah. They were fun to watch, dancing, singing, cheering, whistling, just having a good time.

Attendance, Filler, Kos, asstd final groupers... Chua, Raga, SVB, FSR, even Oi lol

Those guys and their fans obfuscating the intellectual process... the usual tourney stuff. Strange play with the lube complaints and zero response. Always suspect.

Sweet shot. I'll have to try that one :ROFLMAO:
 
I do get a kick out of how slashes performed by the pros are defaulted as exceptional choices and execution. Anyone consider what happens if he clips that 8 ball...?

Not the first time we've seen Biado swinging with excessive action and coming out smelling like a rose.

To me that was the highlight shot of the match. What a combination of power stroke and the ability to foresee the long path the cue ball had to travel. Thanks for pulling it up, because now I know exactly where to find it.
 
Watching Biado play pool is like watching an extreme sports stuntman - “don’t try this at home”!

I was thinking the same about the eight ball. There is also the possibility that he was playing for some other pocket, but overhit it. On the other hand, sometimes you just get a feeling that a "wrong" shot will work, and it does.

Sometimes you gotta see if it'll go.

Thanks Jen.... that would of been nice to hear the Pinoy corner hollerin'.
Saw Chua shoot a similar shot against SVB, even MORE difficult, got perfect, Shane then immediately took his cue out of hand and set it to rest.
When a good player sees a shot like this, one he's played hundreds of times it's a controlled feelin' going three rails and gettin' Sweet on the 6.

Yep..... when you've played/seen as much as we have Bob, that mindset will surface.
Here's another comparable.... when your safe and your offensive shot are both tooooo difficult.
I'll usually take the shot.
 
And two shots after he's not playing pool but "The bridge is lava"
