World Chinese Pool Masters

Two rattling misses for SVB so far. Zhang 4-1 and breaking.

Too bad this wasn't the 9PM match. I'm done.

was that zhang from japan open? there are more than a few now with the same name

i can't see the matches on the phone's browser. tried downloading the app but it was a mess
 
So SVB must have won the follow up match during the night here and is in the final 32 single elim with Corey.

Looks like the next two rounds will be tonight at 8PM eastern and 2:30am.
 
Looking like Shane may be in trouble now.

He is making mistakes and this guy ain't missing too much.
 
FWIW, Shane may be one of the best pool players int he world, but he doesn't impress me at this game on this kind of table.

I'm sure the Chinese guys play hundreds of times more on these tables, but Shane is making errors that he should be making. Strategic errors and tactical errors as well as shooting errors.

The Chinese guys are playing "natural" angles and Shane is trying to "force" angles, like you can do on regular tables. It ain't working.

And another thing I can't understand is why he isn't turning it into a strategic game like one pocket. I'm sure he can out move some of these guys, with safeties and defense instead of trying to pocket every shot when he has low percentages of getting out.
 
15-12

I don't know what the race is to, but I don't think Shane can hang with these dudes on these tables. He may be able to beat some of them, but their best dudes outplay him.

I think he may be able to outsmart some of them, but he's trying to out shoot them.
