Scrappy. Very scrappy indeed. 
5-4 Ralf takes the lead... Dennis to break
Rack 9.
Dennis tries for a tough cut in the side on the 1 after dry break from Ralph. Leaves Ralph almost the same shot. Ralph misses it the same way, 1 nearly hanging but tough to get to the 2 on the short rail going back down table. Dennis plays a great shape shot, makes the 1 goes 3 rails around traffic to fall on the 2 with a great angle.
Dennis makes the 3 and finds a way to hook himself fully behind the 7. Has to kick over a ball, misses the hit, hits the 3 on way out but no rail. Ralph has ball in hand.
Combo on the 4-5, easy run out after this for him. Taking his time as usual for Ralph, gets to the 6, Dennis is about to go down by 1 with Ralph on the hill first after being up 4-2. Ralph wins 3 in a row due to a few mistakes from Dennis.
4-5 Ralph leads on the hill.
Not a lot of coaching to be seen, Dennis needs some hugs or something. Buddy, come on down and give Dennis a hug!

Getting hard to watch! I know I'm not as good as these guys but I could get out of some of these!
EUROPE! :thumbup:
actually i'm rooting for dennis, i want the cup to go on full length. the weakest link in team USA is probably rodney though, he's like a nerve wreck on crack this year. he's doing a great job in the crowd though

WOW 5-5 2nd golden break of the match by Dennis... Hope the rolls are enough to make up for the play..... Ralf breaking now
Its the pressure of the event. They all are more skilled than 98% of users in this forum.
Rack 10.. Dennis makes the 9 on the break, two in this set. He also makes another ball in addition to the 9. 9 kicked to the side, then banks across to the corner.
Ralph breaking the hill hill game.

Being in high pressure situations causes you to do some funny things. Add a shot-clock on top of it and its a recipe for disaster.
I know how it feels. When you got so much pressure every shot is exhausting mentally.
Ralph almost makes the 9 as it was bouncing around the table and came close to the side. You can see Dennis was sitting in his chair just praying that the 9 does not go in.
I absolutely understand the pressure part. And agree they are the best. But we've all been in our own "pressure" situation. Someone needs to pull their head out of their a** and finish a set.
