Ralph was the man to beat for a very long time . Hell of a great player . Shane is just tough as nails all the time . He will definitely go down in history as one of the goats
4:45 I don't understand 10 bell too well but can someone tell me why he shot the 2 ball then the 3 ball, skipped the 4 ball to shoot the 5 and then the 4?
These guys don't tire of miscalling shots. "Oh, he missed it! No, it went in." "It's off! Wait...just kidding. It's fine." Just let the ball finish rolling! It's only going to take an extra second to actually see what happens!
@Carlos Arturo This definitely doesn't look like sock-puppet accounts. Nothing suspicious here. I am for sure going to give my money to @Armando Cloud ASAP.
They talk altogether TOO much. In what other sport do commentators feel the need to tell the audience how they would play every single situation? Their job is to comment on what the players are doing, if it mattered how they would play every shot then they'd be on the table instead of talking about it.
I used to think I was a patient man until watching Ralph. I realize now when I play, I'm nothing but a toddler drinking his third coca cola through a piece of licorice.
22:17 This shot was the camera man's fault why Shane misses. You can see that the camera is constantly moving in front of Shane while he's about to make his shot. Shane even points out to it after he misses because he knew they distracted him. Total BS!
@@danielramsawak4799 its a focus lost. He knew the camera was moving/ possibly reflecting a light while making the shot. Thats an easily way to miss a shot.
The opponent can pass the shot if he gets snookered, but only if the other player makes a legal hit but pots a ball in a pocket that he did not call, aka "fluke." In that case, the opponent would have the choice to take the shot or pass it back. You do not, however, have to call safety in this particular tournament or most pro-level events.
In past years, the U.S. Open 10-ball was played on a 7-footer (bar table). This is the first year that they switched to a 9-foot table to match the U.S. Open 9-ball.
@@andresflores645 how? I'm asking a question. You should try it some time, might learn something important like how not to reply in such a stupid manner
dont really care for goerge or freddy commentary, but you guys are so much better than hearing cotton, and light years ahead of alvin nelson, also none are better than ken shuman or jeremy jones
HINT: When it is Ralph's turn to shoot, tap the "L" key to fast forward 10 seconds otherwise your wife will be sound asleep by the time you get through this otherwise great match
Neither agree or disagree but for the sake of a good post, how do you feel about this... Efren is better at getting out of a bad situation. Shane is better at not getting into bad situations.
I always laughed my ass off on the person who introduces in the beginning, he tries to mimic a little bit of the boxing introductions but he SUCKS at it...lol
CSI has a thing they call ten questions. Most players compliment another player. Not Souquet. The only one he complimented was himself.. Pretty shallow guy.. Give me a break.
The only way Ralph could beat Shane is if the power went out and Shane's pants fell down and Ralph Finds his vanBONING in the dark and mistakes it for one those battery-less flashlights that you shake to charge.
Joshua Haynes Joshua I know he is great I just want to make a funny absurd comment. I know he is a super bad ass player I just wanted to make people laugh. At their level it anyone's game.
Fat people usually have love handles, so nice observation. For a man as thin as Shane, he has some pretty big love handles was all I said. Do you not think so?
I think you misunderstood the word "from." I'm from San Diego. I'm Filipino. Those aren't mutually exclusive. Mika is often announced as "from Finland" although he's lived in NYC for decades. Nobody said he wasn't Finnish.

2 legends and great commentary. What a match. Thank you.
I thoroughly enjoyed watching this match. Great play from two consummate professionals, good commentators, and excellent camera work. Thank you!
1:13:12 that's what she said
"Ralph is making quick work of this rack."
Now that's something you don't hear that often.
Why's that?
He`s a bit of a slow player...
He is a great player however he plays slow
lol got 'em
He’s rather slow if the pro players out there, but he’s nowhere near as slow as some I’ve seen, that take
Literally minutes for each and every shot.
It's such a treat to witness these two masters of the game compete. 1:34:35 might be the shot of the match, too bad about the follow up.
At 8:06 the 3 ball looks orange, I was confused as hell.
Great safety battle to watch in the 3 rack. Seeing them fight for a shot on the one ball.
Starts at 10:05 for anyone who wants to see rack 3
the colour on some of these cameras is all jacked up, seems like something you'd want to get right for 10 ball
4:45 I don't understand 10 bell too well but can someone tell me why he shot the 2 ball then the 3 ball, skipped the 4 ball to shoot the 5 and then the 4?
The cyan color ball is 7, not 4.. Purple one is 4, which was already pocketed.

I know! We can see, too.

1:44:29 bless you!
Thank you for posting the quality match 👌🏻
Shot at 1:34:43! Wow!
Anyone else notice the facial expressions of the two players when the other players name was called out?
56:23 nose de reglas yo creía que era regla pegarle a la objetiva en turno en este caso hace un 5, 4 ... crei que era falta..
It is so, but he hit the 3, not the 5.
I used to think I was a patient man until watching Ralph. I realize now when I play, I'm nothing but a toddler drinking his third coca cola through a piece of licorice.
Jake Johnston if I ever see anyone drinking Coca Cola through licorice I’m calling the police
@@jeremygibson9006 Why, did they pass an ordinance in your town? I'm pretty sure it's ok under federal law.
They keep saying Ralph Soquet but I think he's better than that, he's pretty good!
22:17 This shot was the camera man's fault why Shane misses. You can see that the camera is constantly moving in front of Shane while he's about to make his shot. Shane even points out to it after he misses because he knew they distracted him. Total BS!
I see what you saying but, from the beginning I can tell that shane was aiming too much right.
@@danielramsawak4799 its a focus lost. He knew the camera was moving/ possibly reflecting a light while making the shot. Thats an easily way to miss a shot.
How does it call this device under the balls?
Magic rack
Nutsack
14:54 Souquet uses the two finger rule to aim a rail-first kick.
pls explain?
spelt van Boening wrong in title
How great to watch a match that is well commentated.
Race to 9, almost 3 hours
shot clock
1:01:00
Complain all you want about the commentary, I think it’s genuinely hilarious 🤣
I'm new to 10 ball...Do they play the rule where you have to call safety or your opponent can pass should he get snookered after a missed shot?
AGCtwo That's called a roll out or a push shot. That is allowed after the break, and after the break only.
The opponent can pass the shot if he gets snookered, but only if the other player makes a legal hit but pots a ball in a pocket that he did not call, aka "fluke." In that case, the opponent would have the choice to take the shot or pass it back. You do not, however, have to call safety in this particular tournament or most pro-level events.
Abijah Vojtasek thanks
Pool knowledge stand-off????? Where'd they find these guys???
Freddy commentator is 'the best-descent, humble- commentator.'
I applauded
Why was he playing a bar table earlier and now they're on a 9-foot
In past years, the U.S. Open 10-ball was played on a 7-footer (bar table). This is the first year that they switched to a 9-foot table to match the U.S. Open 9-ball.
@35:00 the guy next to Van Boeing farted
😂
Anyone.. that might know..... is this a 9ft. table? Looks bigger to me .... maybe a 10 ft.?
Somebody get these commentators a glass of water
1:27: 22 what a shot from The Kaiser..... wow
But he did not want this as he called the middle pocket ;)
Ralph with no shot clock. Can't even try.
Does anyone know who is rated higher than shane according to the fargo rating?
he's currently the highest
Joey Rohrbaugh - at the time of the recording, Jia Ching Wu was rated higher. Not anymore.
Efren and Earl are the bests ever
shane is out of the reality.... perfect player
i wonder if being deaf gives him some focus element that hearing people may not possess
@@MitsuoRLCoach well thats a stupid tought
@@andresflores645 how? I'm asking a question. You should try it some time, might learn something important like how not to reply in such a stupid manner
Soquet still playing.
The US Open *EarRape* "TEN" Ball
What a match
At 11:26 i managed to skip more than 25 ads
Very Nice & TY.
Lol nice title - van "Boeing"
Boeing vs Lufthansa :-)
@@Packgammon vs southwest
well at least there are commentators
is plethora a dinosaur.... it's actually a bunch of dinosaurs... also anyone else see shane's shot after he won???
OMG. Give em a damn shot clock
What kind of cue does Shane use?
OfLucy 96 cuetec r360
ich sage nur Shot Clock
i love svb
dont really care for goerge or freddy commentary, but you guys are so much better than hearing cotton, and light years ahead of alvin nelson, also none are better than ken shuman or jeremy jones
Break at 2:38
1:34:45 someone fire the camera man. What a great shot that I COULDN'T see.
HINT: When it is Ralph's turn to shoot, tap the "L" key to fast forward 10 seconds otherwise your wife will be sound asleep by the time you get through this otherwise great match
Shane is very posh with the cue and with the sport and cmon our boy ko 3
20:55
Anyone know what watch Shane is wearing?
brietling
Polo shirt, pants, glove, and a hearing aid.
Mr.Souquet number one in the world
PLEASE SPELL SHANE’S NAME CORRECTLY. Geez
first!!!!....finally something that i can proud of....LOL
Great players, but pool needs another Efren to make it more exciting. Agree or disagree.
Neither agree or disagree but for the sake of a good post, how do you feel about this... Efren is better at getting out of a bad situation. Shane is better at not getting into bad situations.
Earl the PEARL Strickland!!!
They seriously need new commentators. I can only take so much lip smacking...
ken and bobby are so much better than these two
I always laughed my ass off on the person who introduces in the beginning, he tries to mimic a little bit of the boxing introductions but he SUCKS at it...lol
agreed and he needs to lose that sissiefied earing
Worst Shot of the tournament at 1:14:00
I don't see those in $5 tournaments I play in! lol
SOQUET is paunfully slow
If I hear that George say "MMHHHMM' One more time!!!!!!!!!!! Holy crap its 147 times every match!
8 ball is best
Very unprofessional Commentators.
CSI has a thing they call ten questions. Most players compliment another player. Not Souquet. The only one he complimented was himself.. Pretty shallow guy.. Give me a break.
I don’t like Shane’s white cue. I miss his old black one
That's what she said !!!
racisr
The only way Ralph could beat Shane is if the power went out and Shane's pants fell down and Ralph Finds his vanBONING in the dark and mistakes it for one those battery-less flashlights that you shake to charge.
Desy Quintero not true .. ralp is good enough to beat shane or anyone for that matter
Joshua Haynes Joshua I know he is great I just want to make a funny absurd comment. I know he is a super bad ass player I just wanted to make people laugh. At their level it anyone's game.
Shane looks a lot better bald.
Watching Ralph is like seeing paint dry.
Who are these bozos commentating? Sounds like more interest in pool knowledge pissing contest than just commentating the match.
Slow...
Souquet is never going to win the 10 ball championship. Got beat by a better man.
Shane has gotta do something about his love handles. it shouldn't be that big for a man who is already thin
Love handles. Have you watched some of these really fat people who play here? Give me a break and watch the game. LOL
Fat people usually have love handles, so nice observation. For a man as thin as Shane, he has some pretty big love handles was all I said. Do you not think so?
Haha bro, just watch the game. It’s pool, not a celebrity gossip show.
I'm sitting her watching some elite pool being played and Jack is over there watching their bodies.
Jack got lost on his way to browse Grindr profiles.
"Mika is still from Finland I guess"- it's amazing how America centric Yanks are. I lived in China for seven years, I'm definitely not Chinese.
I think you misunderstood the word "from." I'm from San Diego. I'm Filipino. Those aren't mutually exclusive. Mika is often announced as "from Finland" although he's lived in NYC for decades. Nobody said he wasn't Finnish.
who care?
Jonathan Botto Arana - Considering that I'm the commentator who said the quote, then I care. I hope that's alright with you.
Alex Schofield it's amazing how u think everyone is the same .. there's only 1 race the human race all the other shit is meaningless
Good point.
first time I saw reyes play I fell in love with pool
first time I saw souqet play I hated my life and wanted to kill my self
That sounds stupid.
Ralf Snoozefest Souquet.One of the most boring player of all times.
i used to think that Ralph was a old fart , till i learned we were the same age ,lol but i am a better player than him
Ronnie Bonspille yeah right . Who are you
Hahahaha!! Were you in this tournament?? Why didn't you win?
Ralph Souquet = World Class Legend. Ronnie Bonspille = Legend in his own mind.
Hahahahaahahaa Ronnie your so stupid.. where are Yu at in these tournaments ?? Him and every other professional pool players would kick your ass
I’m coming this year to drill Shane in the finals.
Who wrote this for u omg
Amen, amen
Not much of a public speaker. Lol
Ha,ha
Is that all. Cheap, cheap, cheap
