Every time I play a match, if I lose, I try to figure out what cost me the match. Watching the match up, the first thing I noticed was Shane's cue a had "ting" sound every time he hit the cue, almost like there was an air bubble under the tip. The second thing I noticed was Shanes break just wasn't working, he had one or two good breaks, but just wasn't making a ball and getting position on the one. The final, and most important thing I noticed was Earl was moving the cue almost effortlessly and Shane was having to hammer the cue to get the cue around the table. I'm sure the larger cue Earl was playing with had a lot to do with it. We all know the harder you have to hit the ball, the less accurate you become. Oh, almost forgot, lol, Earl should chill the **** out, some definite sharking going on.
 
My thoughts:

Shane is a class act. Despite all of the stuff that was going on, he was an oak. Afterwards with some of the shouting going on, he was on the other side of the room, eating chips with a smirk on his face, enjoying the show, but not participating.

Earl was out-shooting and out-breaking Shane. He would have likely been up a few more games if he was just a little more cautious. He wanted to put the dagger in when he tried banking that 10 ball in the toughest pocket on the table, from a bad angle, too.

Things are heating up, get your popcorn ready. or a loud bag of pretzels and sit ringside ;)
