Strange match

Watched a John Morra vs Shane McMinn match from the April 2012 Four Bears tournament. Morra should have been up 3-1 but, did not flip the number over. Then later he breaks two racks in a row, which makes it look like they are on serve. Morra seemed kind of out of it, shot great, but then made critical errors. Match went hill/hill. McMinn wins, but Morra already had. Strange match.

Yeah, even pro players sometimes forget to mark up their games. You can bet his opponent knew it. Some opponents may have the courtesy to tell him and some feel it's the player's responsibility to remember to mark their games up and too bad if they don't. Same discussion regarding another current thread. The question is, what if they remember one or two games later that they forgot to mark their game up? Then what do you do?
 
You might be right about McMinn knowing. It almost seemed like he was doing the "white boy shuffle" to put Morra off. At one point he even kicks over his own cue. When he let Morra break twice in a row, I figured he knew for sure. Maybe they were both just tired, Big Truck didn't catch any of it, but stated somebody in chat room called it.
