Cool! Thanks!
Alcaide makes a ball on the break and then a nice thin cut on the 1. He got off line with 4 balls left, though, and had to hit some awkward shots on the way in. 4-2.
As sloppy as Alcaide has looked, he's running out when he gets the chance.
Dennis 935
Alcaide 875 so far
Now Dennis pointing out some gaps in the rack. Hopefully David keeps his cool. He's laughing every time Dennis points out the gap.

Well, Shit. I'm never gonna be able to get that right
I missed what happened to make Alcaide lose the table, but Dennis runs to the 6. He gets a funny bridge spot and jars it. Alcaide runs way long on his position to the other side of the table but then makes a nice bank and then a nearly full table shot on the 8 to set up the winning shot on the rack.
Good news is that its winner breaks.
Good job with the commentary
Sorry but we do not follow kiddie bar tables :grin-square:
Alcaide dry break, Dennis makes the 1 and then plays safe to the 2.
Alcaide nearly makes a jump shot over the 7 ball which was two diamonds away but sells it out.
With the 2 ball in the jaws, Dennis makes an amazing full table positional play to get right on the rail and straight in on the 3 ball for a shot all the way down to the opposite pocket. He had about 1 diamond's worth of area to get in between the 3 and the 4 which were both on the rail. He makes a few more tricky shots look easy and runs out to go up 6-5.

Orcullo hasn't won the us open. I hope he adds that to his resume
I just wish Dennis will just focus on his game and being a professional. Seems like since losing his dominance has made him resort to dirty tactics including sharking...he's nowhere near Efren or Django's demeanour.
I would not want him to win in this way where he's using dirty tactics...
Dennis dry non regulation break.
Alcaide was in a position where he had to let the ball fly a little bit on the 1 but after some rattling around of the balls got fortunate to have a shot on the 2.
The ball rolls out a bit and he has to jack up over or cue around the 4 ball to make the 3... which he tries to power draw and misses badly.
Dennis tries to feather the 3 and leave it hidden behind the 9 but he doesn't do a good job of it.
Alcaide could have played safe but makes a nice cross rail bank into the side AND gets position on the 4. Relatively easy runout from there and we're tied again at 6.

Sharking? More juicy details please :grin:
