I swear I have watched this match a 100 times and I'm telling you ..I guess I've finally lost my mind. But I remember this being a race to 21. I also remember Shane playing safe, then Ko making a crazy kick shot to get out and then break n run 5 to win. I've seen this match countless times. It's probably my favorite match ever. I guess I'm finally fried mentally. Congratulations everybody, you finally did it. You have successfully driven me nuts. Nice.
Incredible match and I enjoyed the commentary as well - mostly because it was obvious the commentators were just as much in awe of the skill displayed as anyone else would (should) be. Great upload!
Top level commentary from Mark Wilson and John Schmidt. Clear, concise, unobtrusive and knowledgeable. A treat indeed. In all the time I've been playing and watching I have never seen a superhuman display like these two put on here. Both on the hill, both with a TPA of .926. Good god, y'all!
1:38:28 after this scratch, SVB could only sit back and watch Ko Pin Chung's extraordinary game This is one of the best games I have ever watched greetings from Indonesia - Sigalingging Vico -
I've only watch half of this match, but I'll say this match is no comparison to the 2016 Final 9 ball match between Shane vs Chang. That match was even more intense because they both were shooting even better than this match, especially Shane, he was shooting like he's not human. Check it out if haven't seen it.
I think I can agree with that. Amazing, virtually flawless, and often spectacular, play. Some excellent, and one or two "not ending so, but great idea/attempt" strategic examples, as well.
Thanks for the upload! I love Ko's playstyle. I tried to emulate his stroke and form and it definitely improved my game by a lot. I'm not sure tho how he keeps his poker face. He's an emotionless beast!
His older brother, Ko Ping Yi is already a great player, he once won three world champions in a year. And they have a younger brother, Ko ping Han, which I believe will also become a monster
@@Isuc_at_poolgolf Right, You usually see the brothers at each others matches supporting them. I watched them play each other and they seem much more relaxed then when they play other people, like they were were just playing for fun and didn't really care who won.... It made me like them even more.
@@2869may Oh and something interesting They held a Ko cup 10ball championship here in Taiwan……and they took the first, second and third place😆 with Ko pin yi beating Ko ping chung 10-9 in the finals. What’s more interesting is that they’re all using the “Ko cue tip” that they developed themselves! I already placed an order, can’t wait to get the tip
Shane was up 9-4 and still lost? Whoa!. The most amazing this about this comeback is that Shane did not choke. Ko just kept running racks. Nothing you can do about that.
Yes, he "glides around the table'..."like he's on egg shells"..."you wouldn't hear him if he was playing directly upstairs". Not my words...but yes, I get your drift...very precise, totally applicable stroke mechanics...just couldn't resist. Sorry. I was amazed how much time he spent looking at the one little draw stroke, placing the cue ball a couple of times, taking the extension, air stroking it, checking the resulting cue travel from different positions for each choice, and finally shooting the 12" shot with 6 inch draw. I would have just set it down, looked at the rest position I wanted, and shot. Only ONE of many many reasons he would absolutely destroy me on a pool table. I would have given that shot little weight, he gave it major diligence. ;-)
Mark and John did a great job on commentating. If anyone is interested they are also teaching together some. Mark has some seminars coming up and John is going to assist. Taking lessons from Mark has been one of the best things I have ever done for my own game.
Wow, what a match and made all the better having John make an appearance in the booth. Time to find something else for Danny to do, love his heart but he's hard to listen to especially compared to this!!! Well done guys.
Wow... just wow.. awesome match. The commentators are great. They know what they are talking about. The only ones complaining are probably amateur pool players.
@hartis andrian the rules as applied to 9 ball with the 9 ball being on the spot for the break requires at least 3 balls passing the head string to be considered legal.
A combination of 3 balls have to either pocket or pass the head string on the break to be an official break. You can pocket 2 balls for example, and if another ball didn't pass the head string, you lose your turn. Silly rule imo, along with push outs. Break 'em and shoot.
John Schmidt: Uh oh. Ko is in real trouble here, Mark. Mark Wilson: Mmmmm-hmmmmm... Ko: Splits the pocket, gets perfect shape, runs rack. Rinse, repeat. Seriously, though - thanks for another great upload 👍. Please keep them coming.
Best lines: Scott: "Yeah, I've got groupies" (paraphrased) "They're 60 years old and have chili stains on their shirts, but I've got 'em" Scott: "It's not like Ko is coming along easy" Mark: "No they've had to taze him, handcuff him ..." One HELL of a match. That Ko, too, is freakin awesome! Makes me wonder if the pair of them might be sitting one two one of these days in pro league standings, where his brother is now in one of them (or recently, anyway, and if I have them the right way around). Spoiler: Nothing like getting beat by a productive compliant break kick scratch. OUCH. It goes both ways, though, at least over the long term. It's just that it happening near the end of the tourney in a 933/926 match is brutal when SVB is going for a sixth in the Open. He sure as heck didn't loose this one on anything but chance going against him.
A crazy rule: A total of three balls must be past the headstring or pocketed. Else it is a "non-compliant" break and the opponent has the option of shooting or giving it back to the breaker.
@yujun.4455 Thx. I'm learning that the Proa r having their cue sponsors design thwir Carbon Fiber shafts to play and hit like their wood ones did. They r seriously encouraged to play with Carbon Fiber by their sponsors due to the large profit margins on the CF shafts as opposed to wood shafts. Unfortunately, the over the counter CF shafts r all the same and not built to any amateur specs. Maybe that's why the US isn't gaining ground on the world in pool now a days. Just something to ponder.....
To some extent, I agree, but then all you get is 'how hard' the shot is every time. Just kind of devolves into ANOTHER different sort of droning. And if you listen, he DID pick shots beforehand and did say "I'm not a fan of"...etc. several times, and pick a different shot than what was shot and do the ole "See, that's why...) so there's that. My opinion, looking at ALL the aspects of the game is preferable, and one thing they don't seem to get sometimes is that SILENCE now and again, maybe even for a shot, or three, when there's not much happening, is just fine. What I actually enjoy most are the stories they relate that are pertinent to what might be going on in the match. On the really "bad" ones, I just turn the sound off. Easy option. Some of the 'road stories' I've heard, like one interview from Deuel and Pagulayan about the winning day and the dinged car are absolutely hilarious. The commentators act like the viewer can't 'chew gum and walk' at the same time, but most of us can. Listening to a good story while watching the match doesn't bother me, at all. To others, probably like getting stuck in the eye with a pencil. Whatever they do, they can't please everyone. Not a chance.
Maybe it's this crazy rule: A total of three balls must be past the headstring or pocketed. Else it is a "non-compliant" break and the opponent has the option of shooting or giving it back to the breaker.
This entire match was the apex of pool, in every way... wow.
Couldn't agree more!
The absolute best pool match I have ever seen by far!
I keep coming back to this match, fantastic pool, and Schmidt and Wilson make a great commentating duo
Couldn't agree more
These to have got to be the funniest fun commentators I've ever heard thoroughly enjoyed this one lol.
I swear I have watched this match a 100 times and I'm telling you ..I guess I've finally lost my mind.
But I remember this being a race to 21.
I also remember Shane playing safe, then Ko making a crazy kick shot to get out and then break n run 5 to win.
I've seen this match countless times.
It's probably my favorite match ever.
I guess I'm finally fried mentally.

You have successfully driven me nuts.
Nice.
i watched this before but it is worth watching again
Same

Both on the hill, both with a TPA of .926. Good god, y'all!
Wow, thank you!
This is one of the best pool matches you'll ever see.
Best match I've ever seen, and probably will ever see. Doubt any match can ever beat this performance from both players
Take a look at Boening vs Mario He.
Best match i have ever watched. The commentators were amazing
Mr. Ko. What a bright future. Hats off.👍👍
1:38:28 after this scratch, SVB could only sit back and watch Ko Pin Chung's extraordinary game
This is one of the best games I have ever watched
greetings from Indonesia

0.926 vs. 0.926. This might be one of the most high-quality matches I have ever seen.

That match was even more intense because they both were shooting even better than this match, especially Shane, he was shooting like he's not human. Check it out if haven't seen it.
What an amazing match. Both guys shooting about 93% pretty remarkable. Thanks for posting it!
I have to say: Accu-Stats really is the gold standard.
I have been watching a lot of youtube 9 ball. This is the best match I have ever seen.
I think I can agree with that. Amazing, virtually flawless, and often spectacular, play. Some excellent, and one or two "not ending so, but great idea/attempt" strategic examples, as well.
I love the quality of the cameras in this video. I've seen a lot of pool but never with the video being this clear and clean I don't think.
Awesome, thank you!
There is a metch U.S.A against EUROPE. The match was gamed in LA
Thanks for the upload! I love Ko's playstyle. I tried to emulate his stroke and form and it definitely improved my game by a lot. I'm not sure tho how he keeps his poker face. He's an emotionless beast!
Thank you once again love from Africa. Can you please put more of Ko Ping Chang . Such a talent
this is the best Pool match i have ever seen. Does anyone seen a match better than this? Let me know.
10 ball, Ko Pin Yi vs Chang Jung Lin in CPBA champion of champions, pure gold
Great match and commentary!!!
"The Master" SVB played great, as usual!! Ko just played his heart out!!
WOW... Great match . Shoots a .926 and looses.
Thank you for sharing these amazing videos! 🇺🇸
Glad you like them!
John Schmidt was great on the commentary. very enjoyable.
Yes it was!
Him and Marc Wilson should commentate all matches for now on so entertaining!
Ko Ping is and will be for a while to come a force to be reckoned with in the world of pool....!
His older brother, Ko Ping Yi is already a great player, he once won three world champions in a year.
And they have a younger brother, Ko ping Han, which I believe will also become a monster

Simply amazing. I was rooting for him all along, but it seemed impossible. Just amazing.
Great commentators and match.
Incredible match maybe one of the best you guys put out on here what a masterpiece
So proud of Little KO
John Schmidt is a great color man!! Keep him coming in the future
Thank you commentators for not guessing what the player is going to do next and how.
Thank you Accu-Stats!
Our pleasure!
This match is just one giant highlight reel!!
My life is complete now that I’ve heard pool commentators talk about memes at a major tournament. Freaking love this sport
Wow, what a great comeback Ko!
Two superb players, two superb commentators. One of the best pool videos ever!
Shane was up 9-4 and still lost? Whoa!. The most amazing this about this comeback is that Shane did not choke. Ko just kept running racks. Nothing you can do about that.
best commentary!
Glad you think so!
Mr 600 is a great commentator!! Unbelievable match
Love Schmidtty’s commentary!
LOVED KO PING CHANG ,A DIGNIFIED PLAYER WITH PRECISE MOVEMENT ...
Yes, he "glides around the table'..."like he's on egg shells"..."you wouldn't hear him if he was playing directly upstairs". Not my words...but yes, I get your drift...very precise, totally applicable stroke mechanics...just couldn't resist. Sorry.

Great match. And the commentators were excellent.
20:00 I didn't think I'd ever see that from Shane Van Boening ... so he is human after all!!

Thanks for the tips!
best pool commentators yet !
It WAS great stuff!
Ya that was the best commentating I've heard in a long time.
Exciting match top notch 💯 as always Accu-Stats! An it's entirety thanks again 👍🏼😎💯
Glad you enjoyed it
Wow great great match 👏🏼
Very amazing boy 💪🏆
Great commentary! Great match!
Jesus!
Amazing match! amazing commenting. Jhon has been very entertaining.
One of the best match ever
Isn't that Jerry Briesath right behind the Diamond sign?
Mark Wilson and John Schmidt = Good Job
Well this was fun! A great battle.
Ko pin chung is a beast❤
The shot at 1:19:50 was one of the best shots of the match for sure. Wow
Watched it twice
In the future it will be interesting to see Lee Van Cortez vs Ko Ping Chung .
1:19:41 Wow! What a shot!
Wow, what a match and made all the better having John make an appearance in the booth. Time to find something else for Danny to do, love his heart but he's hard to listen to especially compared to this!!! Well done guys.
John schmidt. Great comminatory..
Epic comeback
Wow!!!! What a match!!?
Shane's 2 - 3 carom and position on the 4 down table was impressive...!
Loved you Chung !
If only Ko's mental fortitude could be bottled and sold, Zen-ess, Resilience and Strength encapulated, just wow.
KO must find it hard to move around while carrying such big BALLs lmao
Dude got nerves of steel
Wow... just wow.. awesome match. The commentators are great. They know what they are talking about. The only ones complaining are probably amateur pool players.
I play like this in my sleep. Literally, when I'm dreaming. Wow just wow.
Amazing!
Thank you! Cheers!
No wonder he is the world no.1 now...
i still confuse, in the first match, Ko break and got the 4 ball, but why its called illegal?
@hartis andrian the rules as applied to 9 ball with the 9 ball being on the spot for the break requires at least 3 balls passing the head string to be considered legal.
@@r.martinez7576 even he pocket the 4 ball?

@@whetedge ohh i see, Ko is pocket the 4 ball and pass the 1 ball, but he still need 1ball again to pocket or pass the line right?
@@haritsar8274 Right. Has to be 3 balls pass the line or pocket.
1:41:01 Then Ko runs rest of match and Shane doesn’t shoot again 🤦🏽♂️
Pool at finest!
I'll say!
John Schmidt: Uh oh. Ko is in real trouble here, Mark.
Mark Wilson: Mmmmm-hmmmmm...
Ko: Splits the pocket, gets perfect shape, runs rack.
Rinse, repeat.
Seriously, though - thanks for another great upload 👍. Please keep them coming.
Maybe KO also stands for KnockOut
Funny you should say that. That is actually the slogan of their TH-cam channel!
Its crazy how a scratch on the break can make you lose the entire match, holy shit what a come back from Lil ko CONGRATS!!!
Holy cow what a match!!
Are they racking with the 9-ball on the spot?
Yes
Họ nhà KO quá hay 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Something rare.
What made the first rack an illegal break? Didn’t he make a ball?

WHAT A MATCH!
I thought Little Ko played with a Southwest? Anyone know when he made the switch? Thx!
Maybe 2 years ago change the zen cue

I agree commentators are both great especially John
Why is there NO video of Mark playing on TH-cam?
There is bro. Look up mosconi cup from 1994 or 1995. He was on that team.
1:41:05, "Here's what's gonna happen, the kid's not gonna run all the way out..."
Wow! Nice catch. Very funny!
SVB farted
Commentators: yeah ..what a great player
🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂 so true with these two commentators

Why disliking this video some people are sick 🤒
10-10 at .926 each -- what an amazing exhibition of talent.
