For those who didn't watch yesterday, I see the big difference in the match is a couple of things:

- Shane's break is BIG and productive. Multiple balls go in and leave open tables. Basically, he's playing 7 ball much of the time. Corey was breaking well but Shane has a large advantage in the break department. Corey is breaking the 2nd ball behind the head ball into the side, but losing the cueball forward too much. Shane is making the second ball in the side and the corner ball 4 rails a lot, but he's keeping the cueball bouncing back at him because of his power.

- Shane is shooting to the center of the pocket on every shot. He has Archer-like laser accuracy. Balls aren't wobbling.

- Corey is willing to try risky shots, kicks, and banks. When he misses, Shane is punishing him big time.

- Shane's is playing superb safes instead of taking risky shots. The quality of his safes are fantastic. He's getting a lot of ball-in-hand (which is hard to do against Deuel!) and making the most of it.

- Corey was handling the pressure very well and looked fine until the last hour or so last night. He miscued on an easy shot and scratched straight into the side on a break. Shane got on a huge run and really punished him.

- When Shane was freewheeling, it was scary to see someone play so good. He looked like he was just practicing and running rack after rack.

- The table is breaking easy. The cloth is new and the balls are really flying. The pockets looked pretty forgiving too.

This was some fantastic play. I am a big fan of Corey and he looked good, but Shane really caught a gear on him.

if that table toughens up it will favor Cory, if they dont use it to warm up on and just play out the set on it-Cory is introuble. But it aint over its along race look at the lead earl had on Efren gong to 120 and Earl was breaking better-he found a way to lose and Earl didnt have as many demons then.

good guess, but this kid is clean as can be. no pop, caffeine or nothing. I'll tell you what the kid is on- momentum,confidence and a heavy practice routine. oh yeah and lots of desire. he deserves everything he gets.
Well you never know nowadays. I don't know the guy and i apologize but i was just guessing and jesting a bit. I think it's very admirable that he's doin it "on the level". Wish i could watch this match but my connection is way to slow. But it sounds like he is really on fire. I kinda been wanting cory to win but thats only because i don't know shane but from what im hearing i have gained much respect i think he came in as the underdog and i love to see the underdog win.

This little "secret" Im gonna guess he's on some type of speed, or i guess it could be he had an extra bowl of cheerios? Interesting none the less.

It's not cool to start these kinds of rumors. Shane is squeaky clean!
 
is it legal to break second ball in 10 ball? that is not hitting the lowest ball first. Or did i misunderstand the break.

You misunderstood. The 2nd ball reference was referring to which ball in the rack was going in...sounded like it was a ball from the 2nd row.
WTF do I know tho?:o
 
score

Grady says its time for the fat lady to get ready to start singing, shane at the table 21 games up. If Corey doesnt start playing better it may be a 30 game margin

wow, its a rout , corey would have to stage the biggest comeback ever.
 
So if they stopped a few games short of someone winning 50 games last night will they start the count where they left off and continue on to 100? or is it a new start, race to 50 again?:)

This leads me to believe that they started playin an hr or so ago. But i really have no idea i would'nt blame them tho i know i would'nt be able to sleep anyway with all that action. I just figured they would wait till 7pm for all the payperviewers.
