@24:50 the announcers are so busy talking that they missed the two "oddest things" that lost Corey this match.. getting frozen on the 8 ball @6:30 and not punching out on the four ball to free the cue for another shot @19:10. So instead he was stuck kicking at things. Otherwise this would have been a better match.
People can say whatever they want about 7ft tables but it does take special skill to run racks on a barbox. lots of slow rolls and breakout shots. You don't always get to let the stroke out
Glad to see Melling back in the mix again... He is an amazing player... They all have their own styles... I don't quite know what it is but he is just a bit different from the rest...
Feedback to the commentators... Pick one of these two: 1) Either comment the game being played 2) Or remain quite, so that we can enjoy the game being played A combination of both would push you towards excellent commentating.
These commentators should never work on a pool match again.errrm errrm errrm. i just wander how many people have to help the english fella put his shoes on in the morning.. obviously know fuck all about the game as they spoke about everything but pool.
If you watch Corey's stance, and compare it to (for instance) when he's playing in the Mosconi Cup, he takes much longer to shoot and gets right on top of his stick. You can tell he's almost bored playing on bar tables.
I don't think that's boredom. He just optimizes his technique for the equipment. Same as how everybody looks more like a snooker player when they go play Chinese pool. Jeff Ignacio stands up really high when he's playing barbox pool. Looks like an old man :)
Poor commentating... Having chats between themselves about random stuff instead of the match, and clearly have no idea how Chris plays... Always guessing totally wrong how he will clear the table 😂😂. Well done Chris.
I think pool is one of the only sports that is better with no commentators. They are always trying to guess what the player is going to do or even second guessing them when obviously they arent as good as the players still playing in the tourney are. Or talking about random things instead of the game which is also annoying.
@@FamousAnonymous888he's a pretty darn good player. I don't think he named himself, he often plays innovative shots so someone coined the Magician for him.
I have never seen a pool tournament in Europe or Asia played on a "Baby Table" not even for amateurs, let alone for pros. And I`ve been around pool for over 50 years.The Europeans have already got bored playing the U.S. for the Mosconi Cup..... no competition! SAD. But always complaining about pool players not getting the international recognition they deserve, and the low price money. Well... GET WITH THE PROGRAM !!
. ...for fucks sake, rack seven these 'commentators' completely ignored the entire rack... go have a cup of coffee together after the match to have your freakin chit chat!
@@disemacache Efren is the Magician, and everyone knows it. I think it is wrong for Melling to call himself the Magician, he could have used something else. Johnny Archer is the scorpion, it would also be wrong for someone else to use his nic name.
@@steves2241 Efren is older than melling. . So somebody has let Efren's be their predecessor .. same as when melling is old and about to retire, somebody young will take the name
The British commentator is absolutely awful.... Umm umm umm... Adds no value... Trys to guess where Chris is going and always gets wrong...please just be quiet
The commentator has the absolute worst lisp. Do the organisers not realize what a radio voice is for commentary? It sounds like I'm trying to listen to a 5-year-old struggling to talk full sentences for the first time.👎
Why is Melling even playing in this minor tournament? Didn't even hear about any other international players participating. Melling, do you need a trophy that bad?
It is crazy how simple they make the game look!!! Unbelievable!!
Melling has been playing VERY well lately!
Great players, smooth, fun to watch.
Love watching the Ref
Chris melling is my favorite
Everybody's favorite

@zanethind.. and freakin unprofessional of the 'commentators', what are they even there for?
So glad to hear about players not eating pizza rather than commentary on the game. Great work 👍🏻
..really, they should be embarrassed for ignoring half the match while they ramble on about everything but... are they getting payed?
Would like to see them mix it up and play some tournaments on English 8 ball tables and see how the international players handle it.
meee tooo
Commentator can’t string a sentence together
Gobshites
Two of my favourite players ever 👍👍👍👍👍
love watching Chris Melling play, but the commentating here was absurd could not finish
Go Chris - a genius with a cue
Please can the commentators talk about the racks being played?
or just shut up!?
Nah… good stuff from the booth here. All around.
I'll do one better. Commentators talk about the hot refs rack ( . ) ( . )
😅😅32😅3😅2😅32silentZedz 😅😅😅😅😅😊222😅😅3😅3@@silentZedz
@@silentZedz maybe for a podcast but they need to talk about the racks during the game. Talk about snooker some other time.
Corey is using a bar table pop stroke. On a 9 ft. Corey uses a longer fluid stroke.
I remember when this Muppet deuel tried to qualify for the pro snooker tour . Blokes fucking useless. A joke

It's not a good idea to try an guess what Melling is going to do especially if you don't know the numbers on the balls
Two minutes in and the commentary is already too much to listen to.
Not to mention the lisp commentator has. At 3 minutes he keeps saying that he has "free" balls not "three" but free balls
Glad to see Melling back in the mix again... He is an amazing player... They all have their own styles... I don't quite know what it is but he is just a bit different from the rest...
Great match. Have you commentators played pool before? You all were cracking me up, LOL.
People would pay good money for Corey's break.
Awesome
Well played Chris 👍👌👍👌👍👌👍.

Can't watch this with that co commentator talking absolute nonsense it's uncomfortable to listen to.
Saying um every sentence Is doing my head in
Harvey Price and Joey Deacon on comms
Are the other matches available to watch.? Jr's matches for example.
Chris thé english "MASTER" 😎
OH NO not my two favorite players!! This means one of them has to lose. Nooooooo.
What is the size of this table? Looks small.
Brutal commentators
I love hearing comments about snooker players while one of the best pool players of all time is running out a table
Why aren’t the commentators talking about the great shots being played I’ve turned the volume off they are useless
Who is Eva and Iva?
These commentators should never work on a pool match again.errrm errrm errrm.

I think they should always put the referees name on the screen too.
Corey has more breaking power in his little finger than Chris has in his entire body. The English commentator is definitely bias.
is this a 8" table?

Allison Fischer reffing now.
Corey only made one real mistake. He became a professional billiard player. Has he ever placed in a major tournament in the last 20 years?
Why is Allison Fisher the ref?
I'd call it a 2nd ball break not a cut break.
Styler style is called boring tell the truth
There’s only one magician… hang up that shirt, Melling
Unless he add the word “Wannabe” 😂😂😂
@@FamousAnonymous888he's a pretty darn good player. I don't think he named himself, he often plays innovative shots so someone coined the Magician for him.
@@bennylloyd-willner9667 am not saying he’s not a good player. Just confused why he chose that nick 😅😅😅
@@FamousAnonymous888 I don't think he himself chose it. People around him saw his inventive style and gave him the name. That's how I think he got it.
Is that Alison Fisher referee?
no
Who i's referee ?
That's the American way

When it comes to pocket Billiards, Shane is the goat. He has won more money than effren in half the time.
At 26 mins Corey Duel hits black ball around 9 " away from pocket and still goes in . This is very easy .
Why is Melling using the Magician name, that is what they call Efren.
They both are magicians . . And good friends too if you you been following the latter that much
