Miss by a diamond, not just an exageration anymore

Really? How do you do that when they let you play on a recorded match with an audience?

It's cute how someone showed her how to look at the table to emulate a pool player. If you look a few times at the contact point it will seem like you are aiming!

Charlie Williams, IIRC set this match up. He was quite proud of all of his coaching.

Shanelle played to the best of her ability and had some difficulties. I'm sure if she felt the need to improve more she would ask a qualified instructor or professional player for some help.

Neither I, nor anyone else on this forum was born with a pool cue in their hands. We all had to learn, put in the time, take the lumps.
 
On another note, i watched Jasmin Ouschan play some Chinese girl in a match, she is out and out good, and a serious 14.1 player to boot.
And easy on the eyes also ! :thumbup:

I'm not sure why anything negative needs to be said about Shanelle. She is a very nice sweet girl in person. She is *very* attractive. She plays pool better than lots of people. I don't remember ever hearing her make any claims about her game, that she is better than anyone, etc. So I don't know where the negativity comes from. My friend Katie actually played her in the Super Billiards Expo women's amateur open. Katie won convincingly, and Shanelle, though clearly unhappy, was very nice and friendly about the whole thing. Also, fwiw, Borana has improved her game quite a lot over the years.

I don't know...I mean, am I wrong or isn't it a nice benefit for everyone to have girls playing pool, especially smoking hot ones? I don't know why they get so much crap. For me, I want as many girls (especially ones that look like these two), to eagerly want to play pool and show their...qualities...ahem...at the pool table.

So maybe we could offer more support and encouragement and less criticism and condemnation?

QFT.
Also, lol at the video title. Not "Shanelle vs Borana at x event" or even a simple Shanelle vs Borana." Nope. Shanelle cleaveage display. Classy guy, whoever titled it that.
 
Quite embarrasing to watch some of those shots.
Bad position play, loosing the cueball multiple times and yet the opponent can`t run out.
The jump @ 00:58 leads me to belive that she can`t use a jump cue.
Don`t these women ever use draw shots?

I agree.. I'd only add..Their young ladys ; not girls.
have a good day.
 
Smoking hot girls playing pool can inspire other smoking hot girls to play pool. So lay off the criticism! I love pool, and I love smoking hot girls. So this is pretty awesome!

I only wish I could see the video in HD!

Jesus, did anybody see the "jump shot" at 58:26 :D

I did not get that far, it made me uneasy watching that game, a bit like watching a pee wee football game when the whole team runs in circles following the kid with the ball. It's really bad playing but at the same time kinda funny because it's so bad.

I fast forwarded to that part though, it looked like she was aiming to the top of the cueball, she actually miscued over the ball :eek:

I should say that I have nothing against either of the girls, I do have issues with people who play like that being called "pro" or even "good" players and tossed in front of a crowd on a great table with sponsors all around with $10,000 worth of cameras recording you.

Just make a swimsuit calendar and be done with it, people watch this type of match for the same reason the SI Swimsuit Issue exists.

I agree with you, but if they make money while playing pool, is that enough to be called "pro" ?

Tap tap tap! People are missing the point! All I can say is good for the women playing! It's only a bonus to this great game of ours!
 
I agree

I agree, if by bonus you mean embarrassment. What is on display is NOT professional pool. Those that disseminate it or defend it as such should be ashamed of themselves. And as an aside, don't those ladies have any pride? They know how poorly they play.
 
Someone mentioned Ga Young...she is deadly and beautiful!! :D

I would marry her so she could become a US Citizen because I'm unselfish like that!!;)

Then there are those that come on here and start 'look at me' threads proclaiming themselves to be "great players".

Laughable.
