just think if he did not have his break working, he might have thrown in the towel on the second day , just tells you how bad he really did play
maybe needs to work on running balls on a 5x10 /// not breaking

How's everyone feeling this morning? :thumbup:
I love all of the people on here making jokes and snide remarks about the guys who thought Shane would win. It is kinda funny how many people are smart after the fact.
I applaud the guys who were firm enough in their opinions to actually stand behind them with their wallets before this match went down. The ones that like to point fingers and say "I told you so" or "this is what I figured" make me laugh.
Iusedtoberich has my respect for saying his piece and then backing it up. Making jokes about him without having the guts to pick a side beforehand is just weak sauce IMO.

Where's is gulyasse to chime in now
first post, so im sure i'll get some nasty feed back. o well.
I think it's funny how every one on here thought shane would pound earl. i thought shane would win, but deffinatly not pound him. the only thing this proves is that earl can beat shane, when shane plays his game. once again shane had to go into some one elses house, play thier game, on there table, and he struggled and lost. nothing more, nothing less.
it's not a huge surprise. what is/was a surprise is how heavily shane is/was favored. this kid has ice in his vains an guts of steel. I would like to see them play again. give shane a week on a 10'. take the spot away from earl. 9ft or 10ft table, no messed up rules, on break box, safeties, etc. just straight up 10ball. bet we see some different results. (like earl bringing some bigger ear muffs, LOL)
hats off to both players. hell of a match, and show.

You are right ktown, my bad, kicking a man when he's down is not cool, my sincere opologys...I don't think anyone took into acct. that Shanes break would not be a factor on the 5x10. Also who knew he would get outplayed in every other area..Shane was a big favorite on paper...oh well tomorrows another day......
So when is the rematch on the 4 1/2 x 9?
OP stated that the option was for the very next weekend.
One can only assume the that the option wasn't exercised by the losing side.

According to the post by TheMarsMan in a different thread, that assuption is wrong.
Do a search here on AZ....I believe the "losing side" had already BEAT Earl playing 10ball, race to a 100....like 100 to 63...BEFORE they played on that piece of shit....fake 5'x10'
Earl and Mike are classless to say the least to agree to a follow up game on the 9 ft and then not give Shane the rematch. To be honest that doesnt surprise me at all coming from those 2. Earl showed exactly how much class he had in their match and with Mike I dont know much about him except what I have read about him on here, but I do know what I read was enough to keep me from buying one of his jump break cues about a year ago. If your wondering what Im talking about with Mike you can research his name on here and you can find plenty of negative post about him and his character.
