Fluke scratch heartbreaker. The guy's a machine - he'll be back after he kicks the dog.

Might be in with a thick, wooden Diamond rack. But probably not. The 1 looks an inch away from the 13.
He missed the 1, so the fluke scratch was just a bonus kick in the balls.
Did the 1 kick the CB in? That would be excessive.

It looked like he shot it pretty hard.
No. The break ball went straight in, the cue ball went to the side rail and then shallow to the foot rail and then got a very slight kiss from the 4 ball to make it hug the foot rail to the pocket. Slightly different timing and the scratch wouldn't have been close.
Sort of....you just have to hit the play/pause button back and forth. If you are quick you can catch specific things.On the plus side the rewind button workedI had to watch it 10 times before concluding he didn't touch.
Do you know if FB has frame advance like youtube does? The arrow keys are giving me 10 second advances.
Well, technically, the 1 was not pocketed on a legal shot, so it was never scored.
The run is the number of consecutive, legally pocketed balls. Fouls are not subtracted from the run. Fouls are subtracted from the score.
They should write "266x2" as the high run under his name
The interface varies on FB videos according to the level of expansion. In some you get +-10 second buttons.
True- the arrow keys give you that too.
I think Ruslan is taking longer breaks between inning than Shane? Shane was going right into the next inning. I wonder how his mental state is now. Is he pissed he scratched? Did he forget already? Somewhere in-between?
Drama aside following this has been pretty cool. 
There were 101 viewers when Ruslan was at 266. Now there are 29. I find this quite exciting. Especially how fast Ruslan is. I'm surprised there are not more viewers. I donked off the last few hours at work
He smokes, so that's probably the main reason for the longer breaks.
The problem was not the closeness to the rack. The cue ball went nicely to the long rail and then got kissed into the opposite corner pocket. It was a horrible, freaky scratch. You can say the if he had hit it softer it wouldn't have scratched, but it probably wouldn't have scratched if he had hit it harder or with just a smidgen more right.
