Great Outs !!!

I love it when the commentary is always wrong. "He will do... Wait no, he is not doing that" completely different plan than what those in the booth are thinking.

Not to defend the commentators, but it is deceiving to call shot from the booth. There were a couple shots that you couldn't tell it they would go or not. But I agree, I love when players think outside of the box and come up with different patterns. I find it fun trying to predict what a player will do differently from what I would do and then ask myself if it is a better option or not. Many ways to skin a chicken, but usually one way is the most efficient.
 
Looks small, shelti is 6ft as do valleys have 6ft
It’s not like he couldn’t do it on a 7 tho
Or even a 9' table.
I believe a Shelti is a Valley model, the 7' Valley is a Cougar.

I don't know the table specs but I would bet heavily in favor of it being a 7' table. Even here in the midwest where barboxes are king 6' tables are few and far between. I know, 6' just sounds more diminishing if one doesn't like barboxes though. Even though all of my tournament play is on 7' tables I have a 9' in my basement, I can do all the stuff on my 9' that I can do on a 7' table, I would guess most other people have the same results.

Agree 100%. It wasnt a dig at the commentators. I was thinking "what thell will he do now, and on a clock". Everyone see's the table differently, and i think a player like Chris who takes risks is plain unreadable. Just my opinion but i think the value he brings to table is showmanship and fun. Like that crazy friend at a party who no one knows what they will do next.
