Diagrams and videos welcome! Maybe this doesn't count, since technically Nick Varner is shooting and missing the 9, so Mike Sigel should be happy to get to the table. Still, that leave is BRUTAL!

It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that ping.
That scratch was there since the beginning of time.

right lol, why does he think that wouldn't scratch?That scratch was there since the beginning of time.
because the 8B fell in. Did you folks not see it sitting there, over the corner pocket?
That doesn’t mean his choice of shots wasn’t atrocious.

These back-to-back shots by Lil' Ko in a recent match made me laugh out loud:
Sometimes you're just not meant to win the rack.
But I think the 9-ball rolling off as Mario He was shooting it takes the cake. I think it happened during the 2024 McDermott Classic. Maybe against Styer. Don't know where the video is.

Yeah, that was brutal. Not nearly as brutal as the color of that cloth. What in the actual f*ck is that all about?
Agreed. Even if the 8 was there, the cueball could have followed it in or he could have ended up corner hooked. It was still weird and unlucky, though.
Honestly I think he just put a little too much inside on it thinking that if he did run into the 8 he would be fine. The 9 is kind of a big ball if you go to the bottom rail other side of the table. He is a 725 and that was to make it hill hill vs Warren Kiamco. We will never know if he would have scratched after the 8 or been corner hooked.
Yeah, I had a hard time finding the bad roll, was it just the scratch? Even I know to look out for that scratch, the cue ball wants to go in the pocket on those shots.That scratch was there since the beginning of time.
I can think of the one where Thorsten's cueball is coming down off the end rail about 1 1/2 diamonds out from and parallel to the side rail, then just starts turning sideways and scratches in the corner. RKC or somebody said it was due to faulty cloth install, stretched unevenly.
The other that pops into my mind is when they were using the Brunswick Metro tables for a while, and there was a table that had a corner pocket where guys were shooting balls dead center, and the pocket would trampoline the ball right back up and onto the table

In the 2018 wpba signature event finals where vivian beat allison, it was the biggest display of the "pool gods" wanting someone to win that i have ever seen. Some of the good rolls for vivian, and bad rolls for allison were stunning. Vivian also spills her drink on allisons pool case, and allison is visibly pissed. Vivian 3 fouls allison, and had allison so rattled that she grabbed her bridge and went to break the balls with it without realizing she grabbed the bridge. Mary kenniston and helena thornfeldt were commentating the match and were cracking up at how rattled she was. It was posted on the wpbas FB page in their videos section, but i cannot access it anymore as i dont have FB. They played twice in that event iirc. Both videos were equally entertaining. Can someone find it and post it here?
