11-10, Shaw down 1. He's got no give up.

One dude was"clapping" with a pair of cue balls...

Ha ha. I missed that.

 

[iusedtoberich]

I saw yesterday a fan had on his phone some special app that was scrolling "Eagle Eye" on the screen. The broadcast camera was zoomed in on it.

By lords sake, Shaw puting pressure off with some amazing shots!

The two-rail kick he just made to tie it 11-11 was incredible.

 

[iusedtoberich]

11-11! Shaw 2 rail kicks in a ball in front of the side to break and run.

Well, to be fair, that is a pretty easy kick. You make it whether you go two rails, or hit it direct, so your kick target is nearly 3 balls wide. And you gotta get pretty unlucky to not get pretty much the same exact shot on the next ball.

 

[kling&allen]

It's like an actual sporting event with a large and knowledgeable crowd cheering these great shots.

 

[iusedtoberich]

Shaw ahead 12-11. He made trick shot after trick shot that rack and was smiling the whole time.

Race to 13.

Yeah, fair enough, I thought his speed was perfect and then to nail the execution in a key game in a major final was cool to see.

 

[iusedtoberich]

Shaw firing on all cylinders fires a bank in to start the run. Later misses a thin cut, he hit it super fat. Albin runs out.

12-12, hill-hill.

 

[spartan]

9-10 Shaw behind and breaking

This could be heading towards hill hill final like the Spanish Open and European Open earlier this year and we know how much high drama is hill hill

Hill Hill let's go

[iusedtoberich]

Sorry an aside, who in their right mind thought its a good idea for win by 2 in tournaments? Yikes. Completely ruins the climax.

 

[iusedtoberich]

Albin scratches on the break!

 

[spartan]

OMG Albin scratch in the side ....Game over

 

[spartan]

Shaw is inaugural Hanoi Open nineball champion.
Crowd is pro-Shaw so they love it
Good job

 

[kling&allen]

I'll look forward to the montage of the shots Shaw made in the final 30 minutes to win this event.

And hopefully we'll have lots more events in Hanoi to watch (or visit!) in the future.

 

[iusedtoberich]

Shaw runs out. Crowd goes wild. Shaw goes wild. ha ha. Good event.
