9 and out from nowhere


38:30

i can't see what calderon did wrong there, other than he should have frozen cb to the rail. calderon really played textbook, almost flawless to that point, and the match "should be" 2-0 from there. freakish out by filler
i gave the run out a :love:
but in many ways it deserves a :eek:
thanks for the link

that last emoji is probably suitable for alex calderon, because that 9 and out seemed to put the fear of god in him. the match was won there, at 1-1.

very good player otherwise. he is slow, but his percentage and moving game is top notch. good game to learn from

A few years ago he was on that Roy's Basement podcast thing playing the one pocket ghost. I believe he had a couple 15s the first time he ever tried it. I believe he played two sessions and had just crazy high scores both times. Just like this out, he made them look easy and casual.
 
I was playing some 1P this weekend and was explaining my theory that 1P is way easier for the elite players to play because their shot percentages are so much higher than us mortals. If they are 95 percent to shoot a shot and the mortal is 75 percent, the calculations are so much more difficult for the mortal. This is part of why amateurs can take forever to play a serious game of 1P. It's also why the "learning curve" for top players can be measured in minutes.

Not only pocketing ability but accurate position play is so important too.

I also watched that. It was like he was just toying around.
I think he’s the best all around talent I’ve ever seen. He pockets balls and moves the cue ball around to short windows like he’s brushing his teeth.
 
Yeah, definitely remember that one. Yerry, a very skillful player, was playing beautifully and seemed about to go up 2-0 in the race to three. Josh' two-railer turned the tables on him. I'd have to say that any run of nine and out that leaves Scott Frost dumbfounded does the same for me.
