Bergman vs Shaw updates

A Home and Home match has been offered to Morra.

He will not accept it.

One whines.

The other offers to play.

Here is where I feel Justin is currently, He has always had it in him and now he is going to prove it.

I'd imagine people are going to think twice about betting against Justin in the near future. Then again, it just depends on if you like money or not.

The man shoots out the lights.............when he finally gets around to pulling the trigger.
A 30 second shot clock should be mandatory at any event where he plays.
Watching him jerk around is pure horror......almost as bad as watching a Calcutta.
Just my opinion.
 
I don't find Justin's play to be slow: He's consistent and rhythmic. He takes the extra time to make sure he's got his bearings. That's probably why he's a jam up player!

Don't watch then, I'm sure there's something else you can do with your time

How adorable of you. And soooo insightful as well. :p
It's hard to escape him when you've paid to watch a tourney and he's so darn good that he stays on the main stage most all of the time as he guns them down. If there was a way to avoid him after I paid the $$$ to view, I would do so,
He STILL needs a 30-45 second shot clock....in fact ALL OF THEM do.
Enjoy.
 
I think you are making generalizations based on a handful of slower shots (i.e. shots where he would have called for an extension if there was a shot clock). If you simply look at Busboy's updates over the last 2 nights, you will see the matches were pretty quick so he can't be nearly as slow as you indicate.

I was intrigued by a number of things in this match. After a poor showing in the 1st session I expected Shaw to come out strong to open last nights session but it didn't happen & Justin did come out strong & padded his lead.

I was a little surprised at Jayson's lack of response to the heat being applied until Justin hit 59 & then Shaw caught a gear & started trimming the deficit. I was more surprised by Justin's response to that & rather pleased at what I saw. A lot of young guys right on the cusp of breaking through might have folded up there & start playing tentatively but he didn't. He regained his composure & popped a 3 pack & I saw the air go out of Jayson, all Justin had to do was lean on him & that's exactly what transpired with Shaw never breaking 60.

Closing thoughts, Justin has heart, gamble & an amazing cue ball. His position play & safeties were superlative. With a more consistent break he could be a consistent force to be reckoned with in the very near future. Most impressive was he was a stone underdog in most people's book & he didn't seem to buy into it & stomped a mud hole into Shaw's forehead, not in a short race but in a grinders session.

Now Shaw, obviously one of the most talented young players in the game, devastating break when it's on & the ability to just roll over players. I think most remember that 22 minute super thrashing he gave Mika a short while back. He came out flat, blew opportunities & didnt show much fight when down, great player, disappointing showing. Not something backers like to see. He's shown he's got teeth but in this match it was all bark, no bite.

very good post :thumbup:
 
I never buy a PPV that has slow players, but for some reason I have no problems watching Justin. I even learned a few things from watching him. I wish I could slow down as much as he does. I seem to play better shape and pick the right patterns when I slow down. But I slowly speed up and get to my normal fast pace little by little. I'm retired, so I don't know why I'm in such a hurry. :grin:. Johnny

What is it in your stubborn head that does not comprehend that most people on AZBILLIARDS do not live next door to Justin Bergman and have not watched him play his non-streamed money matches and gambling sessions that took place on 9-foot tables 10 years ago before his hiatus from pool altogether?

The key point to your post "everyone who has been around Justin knows..." that is the whole point people are making, most people are not "around Justin" and thus he is judged based on the things he has accomplished big enough to exceed that little bubble "around Justin".

Maybe some day you will comprehend that point... but given your previous posts it seems to be eluding you quite completely.
 
Thanks for finally getting it.

All the AZB'ers were guessing. And spewing uninformed nonsense. And rejecting the informed knowledge.

We knew/know.

Looks like the next big money match for Bergman might be John Morra he is woofing at Justin to play this is what he just posted on Justin's Facebook

Holy crap, the hammer has just been dropped.

Morra might as well have just walked up to Bergman, removed his glove, and slapped Bergman across the face with it and stated "I challenge you to a duel Sir!"

Strong challenge made, especially against a guy who just beat Shaw like that.

One would think this has to go off, John gave Bergman lots of neutral options for locations to play.
