Archer and Shaw commentating the final match between Earl and SVB has to be some of the most entertaining stuff I have seen in a while on a stream. Shaw was a little biased, but that added to the entertainment, and Archer encouraged him as much as possible. In addition, Archer told a gem of a road story during the semi-finals about Earl toking it up in a van..... I almost wet myself laughing. Great job guys.
Commentary for Earl/SVB Final

Loved it, great week of streaming for FREE, how can you beat it. Just as in every sport
in the heat of battle tempers can fly, stuff is said, gamesmanship happens. It takes
great self confidence to play this game at a high level, if you are not feeling it you have
to find a way to get yourself some. Shaw has nothing to ashamed about( I am going out on a fence to say he is going to have many opportunities to get some titles)
and I would love to hear him in the booth more. If the guy's felt like they could be a
little more open without getting reamed, I think they would, and it only adds to the
entertainment and gives us fans more insight.
It was entertaining to listen to Archer and Shaw. It must have been quite an adventure to be out on the road with Earl for such a long time.
I don't want to nit pick, but I get frustrated with Alvin sometimes. I think he doesn't think enough about what he is saying at times. For example, he rightfully stated that SVB and Appleton are two of the top tournament players in the world and basically stated that nobody is in their league. Does he have something against Dennis Orcollo or was it just exhaustion and he forgot to mention him?
All in all though, I'm very happy insidepool provides such great coverage free of charge.

Alvin is an eccentric character that loves the game. There is no sense critiquing him and from what i know-he never wants to commentate but sometimes he has to.
There's a reason they are called Inside Pool. There was more quality inside info divied out this week than a month at AZ.
This is a very interesting point in time in pool right now, folks are jockeying. My hats off to UpStateAl, Alvin and JR. Well done! I thought Alvin did an awesome job (specially since he's a pool freak workaholic insomniac
). The chat was awesome, mods were awesome! Daz was in for hours today in chat and provided interesting, unexpected perspective on Jayson's play. Johnny all but spilled his guts 2 nights in a row in the booth, was as straight up IMO as he could afford.
Oh, btw, the matchups we saw and the play was fabulous! Congrats to Shane, honorable mentions to Earl and Jayson!
INSIDEPOOL knocked it out of the park! :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:

The final was great, Johnny and Jayson cracked me up! Was also good to hear Tony and Jerry in the booth. Congrats on the win Shane!
A pleasure to watch and learn, thank you guys from InsidePOOLmag for the free stream.

Yes, it was pure gold.Especially when Johnny said, "oh look,look earls gonna break his cue....Jayson, go down and show him how to do it". And at one point Jayson was whistling at a couple of Shane's shots, just trying to get Earls attention, hoping he would go off......awesome job fella's.:thumbup:
I enjoyed listening to them, even Alvin was not nearly as bad as he has been in other streams.
I was surprised Archer was so loose in the both messing with Earl, and his interaction with the chat room quetions were great. I've heard him often on AccuStats and this was probably his best work, maybe not as far as going over the match, but as far as being interesting to listen to.
I do with the stream was not so choppy, although I was playing it on a slower laptop, even then other streams did not have nearly the same issues.
