Shaw literally becomes a different breed when it comes to the Mosconi.. and this year he's already the MVP even before finishing the tournament

[@randallgibson8619]

Dam you’d think they’d at least level the table for the mosconi cup 😂

[@23352408akash]

yup just insane that they wouldn't set the table up properly, over these past few days I've seen balls roll to the side so much.

[@enricokohler475]

that's more to do with the tension in the cloth rather than an uneven table - I see it every time we put a new cloth on the table

[@23352408akash]

@@enricokohler475 care to elaborate

[@RichardsWorld]

The table might be on a stage, not solid floor. Not sure.

[@anferneeleung694]

​​@@RichardsWorldI think it's more to do with the slate or the cloth. It looks fine in the middle part of the table and the left side seems like it's fine too, but the right side is just slanted for some reason. It's more severe on the upper right part of the table

[@michaelkunz76]

jason shaw is definitely mister mosconi cup - never before has anyone been so present and I don't think there will be anyone who represents this tournament like him again

[@PostUp_Time]

Shaw is like that all the time. Not just for this event. It's not an act for mosconi cup. Definitely the most unprofessional event of the year

[@matthewbaney2660]

Wow I love how level that table is. The quality and level of that table showed twice now. Yesterday when a slow rolling three ball rolled off its line by over a diamond, and then today when Woodwards lag rolled so far to the left (his left) that it scratched. Nothing but the highest quality equipment when it comes to the Mosconi cup I see. 😂😂😂

[@RyanADillon]

Yeah that is absolutely unacceptable for the table to be that unlevel.

[@MaxEberle]

Should have a diamond out there!

They are all playing on the same table...doesn't seem to be affecting the Europe team...

@@triaxe-mmb I never said who it was or wasn't affecting. I simply pointed out the fact that the table is clearly an unlevel pile of garbage. That is undeniable. I simply used the Woodward lag as a clear and obvious example of how bad the table is.

​@@jaynosowsky9708yet they keep bringing him back. Team Europe devised from players who live in America and many different countries. Usa team comes from one place now matchroom put European player on team. Mosconi is ruined. Makes no sense. Players come from anywhere

[@Blessed.2.Teach.4God]

It's sad that anybody could even pretend to know anything about Shane and say that... Pool means far, far too much to him to ever even consider doing something like that. That's why he has a hard time with all the pressure bcuz how much it means to him.

[@zanethind]

Team Europe is just damn unbeatable too damn good!. Congrats to Team USA for getting a second point and my god did Woodward and Gorst tear the house down with that amazing doubles performance to get 5 wins

[@Ronnie-us8du]

[@brettbarker8444]

@@dfuseidazza6129 oh they’ve definitely missed a bunch of shots they shouldn’t have. No excuse for it. But EU has caught some rolls and USA hasn’t unless you want to count the golden breaks. Watch every time US has scratched off of the break and you’ll see it gets kicked in. Then watch FSR hit the points on the side pocket. Seems to happen a lot in pool when the team that doesn’t need it gets the lucky rolls. I don’t think anyone is arguing that US should be winning right now. That lag between Woodward and Shaw is glaringly awful for the table though.

As a European supporter myself I would be so caught up in the atmosphere if I were there I wouldn't ask for one either, but matchroom should still do it as they have manipulated the play just to send it to the 4th day.

Wish Asia had something similar/could field a team to compete in this too tbh

I thought that also a 3 way comp top 2 play a final be a great comp. Plus going from 4-5 days of pool to 2-3 weeks is always a gd thing.

[@squeegied3rdeye713]

American here. I think it's complete horseshit that Sky pocketed the ball on the lag and the ref called a fuckin do over. That should've been Shaw's break. Another thing that makes ZERO sense to me is that they're on a shot clock, therefore when a player from either team needs to use the bridge, the referee shouldn't be assisting them by handing them the bridge. What if it were a hill hill match and the clock is running with no extension and the referee does that?

[@kaylaschroeder1]

Also American here. I also agree with everything you just said. Strange choice of ref IMO. Refs shouldn't help players with fetching cues. And if you pocket a ball while lagging... ummm... it's the loss of the f*ing lag. Plain and simple. So weird to see that. Confused.

[@jokael]

@@xSalamz As an American I agree, this has been really tough to watch, SVB was horrid day 1. I like how the crowd is allowed to get involved and not have to keep it to a minimum when cheering and jeering, it makes the game better for spectators imo. This can game can grow professionally & amateurly and is in a better place since the early/mid 90s, at least here in the states we have seen a big uptick in league play since the epidemic in 2020.
