FINAL | Shane Van Boening vs Albin Ouschan | 2022 European Open Pool Championship

[@ericclaptonsrobotpilot7276]

That commentator was waiting all night to be able to say “Ouschan’s Eleven”.

[@purwantiallan5089]

"Ouschan's Eleven" still is an iconic line.

It’s really a joy to watch a game on a table playing this difficult.

[@purwantiallan5089]

Van Boening and Ouschan in 2022 Billiard Tournaments are equally unstoppable.

[@rafaelvillamor9702]

That shot by Albin at 1:33:00 was like a PRIME EFREN REYES SHOT. They could have simply slow roll them, but he decided to let the ball go round the table. Very gutsy and only a player with extreme ball control can do.

[@Fleur_de_lis2k]

That was one heck of a positional shot.

[@idewmeth4203]

That moment when it comes off the 4th rail just sneaking by the pink 4, and the commentator says 'damnit' 😂

[@affordablesolutions8516]

There is absolutely no reason to fast roll a shot like that and it didn't land him in any of a better position or angle... Efren 100% would not have let that shot go, he would have played it simple and slow roll that shot.

[@purwantiallan5089]

​@@idewmeth4203he placed the shot amazingly in fact.

[@davidlee8808]

I like how Oushan is left eye dominant, and also how he didn't celebrate before he shook Shane's hand.

[@andrewverrett568]

Shane did the same when he beat albin in the world pool finals. Shane didn't celebrate until after shaking albins hand.

[@purwantiallan5089]

Ouschan in the 24th rack almost lost the rack had Van Boening nailed the Green 6 ball.

[@RichardsWorld]

Albin seems pretty humble.

[@huntercarson9941]

Both are class acts. @@andrewverrett568

[@bigknocker2264]

I like the to see world class pool and snooker players with the opposite eye dominance too. When I was a kid, my dad was teaching me to shoot my Daisy model 1894 BB gun, but he didn't realize that I had a lazy right eye, and was using my left eye to shoot. I could not get the proper sight picture, so I started shooting left-handed. I do play pool right-handed. I deal cards with my left hand though...never figured out why. Everything else I do right-handed except archery and shooting rifles.

[@brianphillips474]

I have never seen so many perfect shots,

Fantastic final, arguably Shane missed an easier shot on the 24th rack but he was coming off a monster shot and the adrenaline was pumping.

[@purwantiallan5089]

Van Boening should've already nailed those easier shots...

[@Rowdymoudi]

[@purwantiallan5089]

2024, hopefully we could see Boening vs Ouschan battling out again in the final round. Maybe in the Hanoi Open 2024.

[@andrewverrett568]

Two best pool players in the world in 2022. Shane won the worlds beating albin, then albin beat shane in the europe open here. For them both to go to the finals in 2 out of 3 of the biggest tournaments in pool and for each to win one literally means they are the two best in the world.

[@tomnekuda3818]

I get the biggest kick out of Shane's facial expressions.

[@shannonmcstormy5021]

Can someone explain, "The new break format" the announcers keep referring to please ?

[@Mvpoker88]

I find it so annoying how i keep hearing commentators in tournaments i watch mention the “new break format” and not once does anyone say “for any viewers unaware of the new break format … its changed from so and so to so and so”. So frustratinng

[@Wreneagle]

I am actually not 100% sure, but I think the new brake format is the break box. They can't break from anywhere in the kitchen like usual pool break. The cue ball can't be too far from the center of the table. This make it harder to get the 1 ball into the side every time and have a good spread as they have to cut it more than if the cue ball were near the long rail to start the break.

[@suewoo5]

Break box, 9 on the spot no soft breaking

[@alpermertsk1688]

One of the best finals for sure.

[@godjhaka7376]

@43:42 "Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you.... THE Magician Shane Van Boening! Who holds the record as the only human alive with 3 consecutive US Open wins, 5 wins total."

Amazing final for 2022 Billiard Match, although, Ouschan vs Shaw 2023 Hanoi Open Final is way more intense than this.

[@mileswieczorek7431]

wow this was the most exciting match i have watched so far. I am an svb fan and hope to one day get good at pool and learn from what he does. The sheer talent these guys have is extraordinary to watch.

[@purwantiallan5089]

Ren Hazuki and Chisato Arashi also love watching this epic match between Van Boening vs Ouschan in 2022.

[@mikepurdon9721]

Great match for both guys, love it!

[@purwantiallan5089]

This match along with Ko Ping Chung vs Ouschan on 2023 Hanoi Open Semifinal and Ouschan vs Shaw 2023 Hanoi Open Final are some of the most intense ones.

[@jkavana]

...that last miss by Shane on a pretty easy shot ...well, that is what can happen after making that incredible bank shot just before. ...one will tend to think that any easier shot after that will be too easy to miss. ...and will often miss.

[@susannia7039]

That is so true. And when it happens, people don’t realize it until right after they miss; then it’s like oh yeah, should’ve remembered to think a little more on that one coming off a monster shot. I’ve been there. It’s not fun.

[@D_Rahs]

After magical shot at ball 3, what a mistake by svb. Great final !! Pleasure to watch

[@abdulbasidkurdi883]

Fantastic game...😊

[@edgarcuevas-gonzalez2203]

I need someone to explain something to me because I'm lost. At 58:34 it looks like Ouschan (O) was the one that took the shot to the rail, but, next clip it shows Shane sitting down as if he had just taken that shot (which is my assumption) and O planning his next shot? Basically O got to take two shots backs to back? I could be completely uneducated on the game and I understand that, but could anyone explain that to me?

[@edgarcuevas-gonzalez2203]

Also, what do they say at 58:05?

[@oogwaysenpai454]

Albin called a push shot, which is the first shot after the break, you can call a push, where you don't have to hit any balls or the lowest ball first, can just shoot, and then the opponent has the option to either play the shot he was given, or he can 'pass' on the shot and make you have to shoot it.

[@oogwaysenpai454]

Ohh that Miss of SVB at 2:28:44 wasnt really a gimme shot. As we all seen the cue ball was almost near the rail and it was signifficantly a longshot. And he had to put huge amount of inside left spin on it to prapare for the 6ball. But too bad that it caused him a miss that lead him to lose the match. Anyway congrats to Albin.

Hi , any store to buy a pool cue , outside from usa ?.

[@MezcalRainDance]

Interesting...in the first rack, the shot clock pauses for the ref to clean the cue ball. In the 2021 Mosconi Cup, the shot clock pauses for Team Europe as well...but when Jeremy Jones asks for the ref to clean the cue ball, it results in a foul because the shot clock goes to zero. I don't care what the rules are or who makes the rules about stopping the shot clock or leaving it on, but make it fair for everyone. This was the only instance that pissed me off during the Mosconi Cup two years ago.

[@godjhaka7376]

@34:50 shane got up so fast 🤣🤣 he was shooting before they finished calculating the scratchl🤣

[@willmous3646]

Why the intermission ? It's a recording.

[@rossawhelan]

Love the footage, the lower third ball tracker, and the commentary - as always, these guys are the best - but that Nineball Title Motion Graphic is truly horrific. It's flashing 4, , sometimes 5 times in the space of around 20 seconds. You don't need the brand transition after every single medium-highlight.

Albin Ouchan reminds me of PRIME EFREN REYES. Their game is a bit identical, only Albin is doing Jumpshots.

[@calcober]

Tough miss for SVB at the end there, but very well played by Albin overall

[@misternewman1576]

Why did they change the 4 to pink and the 5 ball to purple? Would make more sense to just change the 5 to pink.

[@urbananimal55]

I kinda wish they would Mic the players like they sometimes do. It makes things a lot less like watching golf

[@rafaelvillamor9702]

Im just wondering why are they doing alot of CUT BREAK? Knowing its very prone in sratching on the side because the white ball used to travel too much. Why not just do the SQUARE HIT on the 1 ball?

[@0501Billie]

What a match.

[@VeritaForYou]

Nothing can change the diamond table.

[@rafaelvillamor9702]

I really salute how Albin behaved after he won the match. Yes every winners have the right to celebrate their moment of glory, but the way Albin behaved was really CLASSY and DEMURE. Really admirable act from such a gentleman. Althou i really suspect that Albin is a Gay, but whether im right or wrong, regardless of his sexuality or gender preference. Albin is one of my pool idols. Congrats Albin!

This is also a different era, SVB never played with Efren at his prime, and no one ever wanted to play with Efren at his prime. 9/10 ball rack isn't even Efren's forte when he joined the big leagues, but still, he beat the top players like Earl and Mike.

[@rafaelvillamor9702]

Finally at the last and final rack, Albin broke the balls differently. He broke with square hit on the 1 ball instead of the Cut break. Honestly im not really fan of Cut breaks. I dont like it when the cue ball runs around the table. Its very prone to scratch!

[@susannia7039]

On the “hill” myself about those two break styles but yeah, It’s amazing how long into a match it’ll take a player to switch their break when the original approach isn’t working for them. I’m sure they just feel like they’re gonna make it work and then if it does not, they sometimes eventually change.
