- Thread starter Fast Lenny
- Start date
Actually, it took whole lotta skill to create that much luck.
So, both.
You gotta love Earl though...
"I don't see nothin' funny."
(makes good hit)
"Look at this shot!!"
(makes sick kick-combo and wins game)

Pure skill, hahaha.
his antics we're classic there, kept it fairly subtle. lol
It's just a good thing NV hadn't pooped on the carpet or Earl would of had him by the scruff rubbin his nose in it.
100% Luck
If I had to look at this from a deeper angle one would say that "I is known that americans never really use to play any specific shot while kicking (depending on the layout) and it was brought to light that the Pinoys are the one who helped create that in them" judging by the time that this match took place and the force in which Earl hit it and not to mention his anger at the time I would say that it was pure rage kicking, cause going behind it for the side seemed to be a more plausible kick. JMO

I agree...Lenny, thanks for posting this...lot of fun.
Who needs skill.
Hitting the ball was skill. Making that shot , hmm, Lenny you know the answer. I believe he was just trying to get separation after kicking it.
Take a look at the out angle required to hit the ball and make it travel in a true diagonal path to hit the nine ball.
Now, the nine ball was huge, but most people would come deep on that hit and place it up table, maybe middle of the short rail. To skim it with such power that it goes in that path with that force, well
Play the Global Lottery and bet the ponies.

I would say a little bit of skill and luck. His reaction was priceless. :smile:
