SVB vs. Chinakov updates

Ruslan is breaking good
Always ball down, shot on 1 and CB away from rails
Rack 36 could be turning point
Ruslan breaks witgh shot on 1 but no pocket
He plays nice beautiful safe hiding 1
Shane takes long shot and misses completely giving BIH
Ruslan runs out for 21-15
Cannot give BIH to Russian Ruslan :grin:
 
I haven't watched the entire match, but it looks like Shane has changed his break up. Maybe the "Russian rules" 10-ball break has played a part?
 
Shane breaks dry
Plays pushout , Ruslan gives back. Shane plays ncie safe tie up wth 9, Rusland misses and BIH for Shane to nice run out but misses 4. Ruslan runs out for 22-16
This is like Race to 14 with Ruslan leading 6-0
:D

The break wasn't hurting Shane so much as missing...I think the table plays a little funny.
My instincts says the cloth was not stretched enough, and the middle slate is a hair low.
....assuming it's a three-piece...if one piece slate, it's a bit warped.

But I'm favoring cloth not tight....the potting angles become different at slow speeds...
....and the spin takes different.

Shane missed three shots that he might not miss again for ten years.


Can't watch it right now...my IPad can't handle it...:o
 
there is no rattle in Ruslan. Great shot maker.
Not always ideal position, but his eye makes up for it. wow.
 
The camera was just on Shane as the Rusky was racking. Shane was talking to himself.

I usually like your posts, but not that one.

Shane is not playing well. Nothing else to say.
 
On a side note - will the Russian Table official be hired by Matchroom anytime soon? :grin:

On a side side note - Whats with Ruslan using Kamui? Why not Russian Magic chalk?:grin-square:

Sometimes I have found myself not playing well, and I had to figure it out before it was
too late.....loose cloth was often the culprit.
If I'm stroking bad, I'm going to know it, as will Shane.

I lost a snooker match 1-6 once...I played good enough to get to the finals and then
couldn't run 20 points.....hadn't played on that table before... Turned out the cloth was on
backwards and I didn't notice the nap running the wrong way.

Not understanding what you're playing on gets road players broke
