Alex Kazakis vs Shane van Boening | 2021 World Pool Masters Final

[@wallytverstol8627]

this was alex's best match he has ever played

[@murahk123]

Not really. He didn’t really make any tremendous shots. He had a more impressive match in 2019.

[@doraemon402]

No, it was SVB's worst

[@kirkgoss6433]

@@murahk123 understand that it’s not always about tremendous shots. The man played with poise and composure, running racks and making the fewest mistakes. That is not an easy thing to do in a finals.

I wish the best for Alex Kasakis. SVB is a great player but Alex rose to the occasion and deserves his place at the top.

[@Bread_Garlichouse]

WOW! What a performance. I don't know why they don't really show this sport on cable here in Southeast Asia any longer. They used to have it almost every other weekend back in the early to mid 2000s. The San Miguel 9 ball tour, Mosconi, World championships etc......I recall seeing so many good Taiwanese and Filipino players back then. Don't see so many of them in the deeper stages these days.

[@Bread_Garlichouse]

Can you imagine Earl strickland giving an interview after getting walloped 9-0 in the final. What a class act Shane is

[@madmarvdesigns]

Archimedes said "Rise above oneself and grasp the world" Alexander Kazakis must feel on top of the world right now

[@Rick-ro8bf]

Kazakis really got the rolls. I'm still happy for him because he's a super nice guy and a great player!

[@SteadfastGhost]

Excellent play and amazing production, glad to see spectate this tournament :)

[@SirPeterlll]

I'm always amazed that Pool players move so much during a shot. Examples 16:55 is waaaaay to wobbly. 36:50 The back of the Cue stick came towards him mid stroke, resulting of a crooked end position of his Cue. 45:35 He changed the Cue angle after a few practice strokes. He had plenty of time to stand back up and try again. Kazakis had a proper posture during his strokes and therefor much more higher reliability shots. Deserved winner.

[@sketchesforyou8020]

Assuming you’re more into snooker (as am I), it’s because there’s more room for error on a 9 foot table compared to a 12 foot table.

[@ezshanaruna2800]

Unbelieveable, surely his focus, concentration and consistency are remarkable.

[@davidparker8475]

Alex played very well. Shane had a couple chances and frankly wasn't his usual awesome self. Hats off to Alex!

[@Sacredsnow2]

@@murahk123 losing is apart of life. I haven’t finished the vid yet so maybe I’m missing some terrible blunders from SVB but so far Kazakis is just lights out and the only shots SVB is getting are no actual shot and a difficult safety.

[@troywest]

As much as it pains me to see SVB lose any game ... LOL .. .Kazakis surely deserved this win. Congrats dude !!!

[@metou3072]

9:40.. always use your cue stick to measure when using the mirror system... You can easily see he opened his hand more.. use the tip of your stick at the object ball and mark the distance to the rail with your finger on your stick... Then when you put your tip at the rail your finger with already be at the aim point... This advice is for those just learning the system

[@Ivansky1]

WOW, Beating SVB 9 - 0 Must Really Mean Something!!!!!

[@edwrd1990]

I don’t think this has as many views because the video doesn’t show up after the last match. I had to search for it to show up.

[@Goalrush345]

I think Alex only missed one open shot the hole match jeez🥶🙌

[@whetedge]

Flashing the Matchroom Pool Series card every time you go from live to re-play and back again is highly annoying visually. Otherwise, a good production.

[@SamsonVegas]

Shocking the score. Shocking SVBs misses.

[@germainpouliot256]

I did not really enjoyed this match. Winner breaks format is an obsolete concept, it brings nothings to the promotion of the game to keep in his chair a player of the quality of SWB. Snapping the wing ball in the corner pocket at each break is also kind of predictable and boring. This should have been a hill hill suspenful match. It was rather an excellent demonstration from an excellent player on a very good day for him. I don't know if the nine ball was on the spot, if not it migh have helped to improve the match. Breaking from the box can also minimise to cut the head ball to the side pocket every time. This is my two bit opinion, I still enjoy the game at 75. Have a nice day. 🙂

[@walaxx100]

Wow this is why they now created a new break rule where the 9 ball will be on the second diamond because this was ridiculous.

[@FurbyPurrson]

at 55:29 "kazakis has gone from dreamland to Nirvana" - phil yates svb was the one that went to nirvana in this match. Definition of Nirvana is someone ceased to exist. so svb went to Nirvana not kazakis. 😁😂🤣
