[@scifisoldier]

Such class from FSR! I feel like the eagle guy would've been yelling, screaming, and beating his chest all while standing on the table... Great match, congrats to Ruiz!

[@chili015]

Shaw only does that in Mosconi Cups... in which, everyone does that in Mosconi Cups. Also, players usually only stand on the table after Major titles. The PLP is nice, but it's not a Major (even though Matchroom will say all their tournaments are "Majors").

[@BabbittdaWabbitt]

@@chili015 I have only seen that once, and I was appalled.

[@chili015]

@BabbittdaWabbitt - Seen what once? Standing on the table? That happens after every Major win. FSR did it when he won this year's World 9-ball. SVB did it the year before. Albin did it the year before... and so on. Biado did it when he won the US Open. It's also been a tradition for every winning Mosconi Cup team for a long time now that the entire team gets on the table. I have many more examples.

[@godjhaka7376]

​@@BabbittdaWabbittthen you just haven't attended or watched enough tournaments nor know much about pool and it's beautiful history, and that's okay. Keep studying and learning kid.

[@godjhaka7376]

I love when they show character and yell, scream, beat on their chest as you say. If they not doing that I'm going to sleep of boredom. That's why Earl Strickland is the best, with the accolades to back it no one else has other than the REAL goat SVB.

[@alfonz1986]

another win by the champ FSR! Question: Why is there no crowd even for the finals? Kinda kills the atmosphere.

[@DAmicoDanceHouston]

These guys are so damn good!! Both of them. FSR Did his job extremely well and that one lucky roll behind the nine closed the deal. We all get lucky sometimes, more some than others. I could use a little more myself. Jayson is a beast and one of my favorites because he’s just a machine. The miss on the 3 ball plus the one lucky roll for FSR and that was it. Jayson was mad at himself, not FSR, but that can’t get in the way of good sportsmanship. I too struggle with myself when I think I could’ve won. No excuse. NEVER SHAKE A MAN’S HAND SITTING DOWN, EVER! I too think a longer race for the final is better and think the outcome would’ve been different. However, FSR is for real. Congratulations to him!

[@rodarm7598]

20k top prize for a week long tournament seems like a shame for these top tier players who devote so much time and energy into this game. I appreciate what match room is trying to do, and for the quality video production, but man I hope they can eventually be compensated appropriately! I know that matchroom is putting a lot into getting pool to that point! Really routing for them to succeed.

[@udtojanpestillos2094]

You mean 10k. Because 50% winning-tax. So in the end only 10k.

[@cranford69]

No matter who you are, or how great your performance is, how you lose speaks VOLUMES about who you are vs how you win. As many events as he played in, he could’ve handled himself better. The smug handshake and how he accepted his trophy immediately looking for his chair after Emily handed it to him is completely unacceptable.

[@gavin26]

[@tnross23]

Shaw really only made one mistake and that was a tough shot man, do a race to 100 with him I think the results might be different… 9 ball at this level comes down to a few rolls here or there. That’s why the long races really are the only way to show who is playing better that day. Just my 2 cents, I’m sure I’m wrong. Great match and coverage👍👍

[@thegodofpez]

Fully agreed.

[@doraemon402]

I cannot disagree, a race to 7 for the final of anything isn't enough. The problem is about schedules, though, that's why it's so short

[@cousineddy9702]

Nah I think you are correct. Shaw hit that thin 3 ball with perfect speed for shape on the 4 (which I can’t believe it didn’t fall) then scratched on the break. FSR broke, lost control of cue ball and was extremely fortunate to avoid scratch in corner. 2 great players, but sometimes just a few bad rolls is all it takes to lose a short race. I think Shaw is still the more talented, experienced/savage player between the 2. FSR is killing it lately but I think that will end soon.

[@stevehiggerson7328]

The results of a race to 100 would be the same. It takes positive energy to find that magic FSR has. Go back and look at how FSR took his recent defeat. Jason sounds like he knew he was going to lose before he even started. Pretty sure he was saying “Yep” every time something didn’t go his way, like he expected it.

[@tnross23]

@@stevehiggerson7328 ya it’s a tough call but Shaw has some seasoning on FSR and pulls out some really tough shots under pressure. Either way I would love to watch them play a longer set of 9 ball and preferably winner breaks.

@@shortydancer The scuttlebutt is that a few of the players were upset that FSR was being cocky. And Shaw really wanted to beat him.

FSR proved to me that he is one class act and Shaw - well, he showed his true colors in the end. No respect!

[@DukeofBourbon]

It’s sad cause you can tell FSR wanted to celebrate so bad but didn’t because he was intimidated by Jayson. He is known to act out and it was visually noticeable that he was already aggravated.

[@thomasgorman1535]

FSR is in the zone as the top player of the time has the tendancy to do. Franco makes it look easier than most as his pace doesnt change as he just works the table, the angles, and the que in his steady attack inpotting balls... Jason gets a little pouty when he looses, unfortunate for his prious. This is just another side of poor sportsmanship. He's not the worst at it, but he is among them. Is he simply begging for our pity or is it simply immaturity creeping in ...? Question for your opinion? Why is it that every player suddenly and abruptly loose their killer, in the zone, almost robotic play. They put their opponent into a defensive uneasy play, knowing one error will cost them the game or match. Then suddenly as they find the zone, they loose it. Over the years I've seen it whether the player was in that zone for 10 months or 10 years. I have wondered if their judgement gives way to taking too many chances or if the try to be too perfect on every shoot. It just seems that the way it happens, it must be mental over the physical or hand - eye. If you can figure it out you'll have more coaching opportunities than you could shake their stick!

[@chili015]

I don't think Ruiz was that lucky. He didn't miss a single open shot and he didn't scratch on the break. The only thing he was really "lucky" on was making the 9 on the break. Other than that, you can't really say it's luck when you kick out of a safety and get safe back. That's 9-ball. Shaw, on the other hand, did scratch on the break and also missed an open shot.
