What happened in the Archer-Bustamante match?

[VIProfessor]

Can anyone tell me what happened in that match? I know that Bustamante won, but the last thing I knew Archer was perfect on the six and looking to run out to hill-hill, and the next thing I hear is that Archer conceded the last three balls and Bustamante wins 7-5. Did Johnny miss the six or seven or hook himself or something?

Johnny

Johnny had a choice on how to get on the 7. He opted to come off the rail with some bottom and cross to the other side of the 7 to play it in same corner as the 6. He came up short and left himself a tough cut shot on the 7 in the corner. Had to get his extention and stretch and unfortnately miscued. He conceded. Looked like the could have followed the six and played the 7 in the opposite corner.

Thanks a lot! That must have been brutal for Johnny. He cruised along for 10 rounds and maybe ran out of gas at the end. IIRC, in his last seven matches he played Louie, Morra, Orcullo, Parica, Broxson, Fiejens and Bustamante. Who wants to have to go through that lineup!
