Mosconi Cup 2012 Day (4) Discussion

Shuff couldn't buy a roll in that match. Poor kid played very well, just couldn't catch melling. I feel for him!
 
If Dechaine wins the next match to tie the score surely it has to be Melling vs Archer for the cup.
 
I just want to take note of Brandon's fine play in this match. Melling played lights out but Brandon made him play well to win.

Melling is amazing!

Ok, Mr Dechaine, welcome to the frying pan. You've never known pressure like this before, but you can be a hero now. Bring your best, for you can be sure that Mr VanDenBerg will make you play well to win.

This Mosconi Cup is providing some of the most electrifying pool I have ever seen!
 
Well if it is all up to Dechaine this is his opportunity to finally live up to his own self propagated arrogance and hype and rise to the occasion and be a stone cold killer. Never been a huge fan but these are the type of moments where the rubber hits the road and you walk the walk not whine the whine....and yes I am pulling for him because he is American and a HUGELY talented player.
 
Anybody see a handshake?


or just what is becoming the norm in disrespect from the Euro contingent?

Shane also didn't shake Darren's hand. All these guys like each other. It's just the heat of the moment and the excitement of team play, don't sweat the handshake.

Most of these guys are friends and harbor no ill feelings.
 
I disagree. Make a guy kick two rails at a ball that's eight feet away and he'll have a hard time controlling the cue ball off the kick. Good safety by Melling that figured to get a good result.

Great match so far. Both players showing some serious form.

That was the one rail kick i was referring to. The cue ball could just have easily settled in on one of the surrounding object balls instead of gliding into the side pocket.
 
Like when he was yelling "Watch out, there's a pocket there" when Brandon scratched.

Yeah it is easy to tell where Jay's money is. But I don't think he layed 7 to 4.

Must have found a softer line than that.


Brandon played great and lost. That's pool !

Brandon played very nicely. Scratches on the two kicks killed his momentum.

Yep, Mazin Melling, playing to pot that 6 ball all the way.

Come on Fireball!
