[@teodoroabecia8000]

We’re missing Mr. Reyes on this tournament!! We need someone to make this event fun and interesting!! Only Mr. Reyes made pool game enjoyable to watch. Watching his skills, smart moves, dazzling shots, unprecedented shots!!!!!

[@rhizpeher3517]

couldn't agree more. it is kinda boring without him.

[@densioinlubang9082]

hire mr. reyes to show you some of his amazing shots you've been missing.. if you can't hire him, then don't ask for more. don't try to order more than you can't pay hahahha

[@ClarenceKayet]

Congratulations team Philippines.

Marami nman tayung magagaling na pwede ilaban sa ibang bansa,, mga bakyard pero magagaling talaga,,, c ryan maglasang magaling din yun,,, hindi yung porket may pambili ka nang teckit patungung ibang bansa eh pwede ka nang maglaro dun ,,,

[@teodoroabecia8000]

Whoah!! If that guy is Efren? Nothing to worry !! Bank shot is on that pocket lady interesting shot!!!

[@the_alchemy_method]

First rack 2 ball was really just a loss of focus. And perhaps he had an eye on the positional side. Can also be caused by players not being 💯 clear in their head of exactly what they’re going to do before they get down - so they dont commit fully to the shot due to that element of doubt

[@willstar8095]

Prob flicked some right on it - and being the first shot he just didnt allow for it to throw in that situation and hit it thick. Even for a snooker player it only takes one of those to mentally adjust. Just a shame for him his 'one sighter' was a sitter!

[@hewgoba]

Aranas cue stick was missing at this game !!!! bummmmerrr !!!11

[@edmhie1]

We missed the "GOAT"

[@timhentompap8595]

magaling naman ang pambato natin kaso pag andon na sa dulo mas kinakabahan kita naman sa galaw lalo na nong parihas ang score yong last shot oportunity sana un para sa side pocket kaso binanda side pocket sana para pag na mis yong shot atlest mahirap parin yong tira para s kalaban pero talagang ganyan bawi nalang sa nxt mga kabayan

[@terrymayo8554]

Yep.. full of a lot of sloppy play especially at this level

[@Lenzky345]

Efren Reyes said "Even if you're good at pool, always practice yourself" this means to master the safe shot and bank shot during the game and less nervous 🙂

[@rogerscottcathey]

Known Wilson mostly from his Snooker. Decent player. Aranas too.

[@rogerscottcathey]

Though kinda rough for both today. A lot of smh shots

[@rogerscottcathey]

Truly puzzled by the punch by Wilson on the 9 down the rail. 99% of the time on that shot you want the ball rotating just a wee bit counterclockwise to assist the fall into the pocket. No need for force. Quarter tip right, one tip or or less low. Gravity is your friend, undue force is not. Bobble shot

[@rogerscottcathey]

What's really funny here is, is if each player has bet on the other to win, then they have to lose. I think that's what we're seeing here. And, unfortunately, Aranas got the upper . . . hand . . .🙄

[@rogerscottcathey]

I kind of understand why Wilson would use his snooker cue in a nine ball tournament . . . But not really. Adapt man! This ain't snooker! A game of millimeters! Get back to thinking in inches and eighths and 16ths of an inch! Metric system has retarded English pool players trying to adapt to our caveman games dude!

[@rogerscottcathey]

That's it Gary! Drink more beer!

[@teodoroquindara7583]

We are proud of you Mr. James Aranas. Pero sa laban na ito, nakakahinayang. Panalong-panalo ka, ang problema sobrang nerbiyos at ingat mo. Pati mga puwedeng 2-way shot, tulad ng DOS, imbes na ishoot mo sabay patago sa likod ng 3-tatlong bola, na natural lang naman ang angle, ay nagsafety play ka na sablay. Ilang beses na sa iyona ang laro, ang dami mong sablay. Yung mga kayang-kaya mong ishot, sablay parin. Yang SKILLS mo ay pang WORLD CLASS at PANG WORLD CHAMPION pero ang SPIRIT mo ay QUESTIONABLE. Brod, SELF-CONFIDENCE is very important.

[@marlonlagman9607]

Hindi gamay ang gamit kasi nga nawala luggage nya sa qatar airways kasama mga cues nya..dami mong alam ah puta ka

Here was a match just screaming for a good commentator, we didn’t have one. Cameras were off also Shooting the player in the chair while the ball is still rolling from the shooters last shot (for example) One thing I suppose, Gary didn’t worry about shooting the purple five out of sequence since he maybe didn’t shoot pool before Match- room introduced the odd,very out of place Purple five. I still enjoyed watching the match, but could have been better. I hate having to be so critical,just trying to make it better,; we’ve been at this long enough,all this should be better.It has been sorted properly before but these issues seem to be neglected over and over as we move along. Well,thanks anyway from me, but I don’t see you picking up new viewers with this performance, and I’m not talking about the players.

Unfortunately, the airport/airlines lost Aranas’ cues. So for this match he had to borrow one of Johann Chua’s cues.

[@user-vl7yt2zj7n]

Mr. Aranas kulang sa decision making pagdating sa mga importanteng bola gaya ng last shot sa 9 ball.dinoblete pa e pwede nman sa side,at kung sakaling na missed shot panigurado may chance na safety ball.

[@williamalberto4284]

[@richaraburto5551]

[@juntutor4389]

[@beausky4100]

[@egroegartfart]

I dont know if this is true but are they making some pockets 4 and an eighth in wide now? Our pool hall just got new tables last month and they are 4 and a quarter and i hate them. Eveything just rattles now and doesnt go in. But im just starting to get used to four and a quarter and i hear they are making them even smaller. Is this true? I know i needed to get ised to four and a quarter to play in tournaments and such but im also thinking about just the average person that is getting together with friends to play pool on a weekend. Ive talked to a few of thd weekenders that come in and they are not happy. They both said they just come in to play for fun. Theyre not good players at all. Not even close. Can maybe run teo balls at the most. But they just like to play. And come in and socialize with their friends. And they said its not enjoyable having these four and a quater inch pockets. They arent pros. They dont need to play on small pockets. And i do agree with them. With them continuously making the pockets smaller youre going to push away the weekend player that just wants to come in and have fun. Have a few drinks and play pool. They both said its not fun. And since they only play once a week thats not enough practice to really make the changes in just a couplle hours. Playing in tournaments and in money games i kind of have to get used to it but i really dont like it myself. Pool used to be on espn, and televised tournaments every single week. There was big money in pool. Or much bigger in the 80's and 90's. Its no longer on espn or mainstream television. We can watch some on a livestream most of the time. Shane van boening was the top earner last year and made $140,000. Let me say that in a different way. Let this sink in for a minute. Ghe top earner.....the person.....the professional athlete that made the most money in pool last year made $140,000. Does anyone see anything wrong woth that? I know this isnt basketball but steph curry is making 50 million dollars this year. Lol. I dont expect pool players to make that much. Pool just doesnt have the fan base basketball or baseball or other sports have but i was so shocked to hear that thr top earner in pool only made $140,000 last year. Sure, he makes a lot of money betting. Probably doubles what he makes on tour. It bothers me and makes me wonder who is to blame for this? Pool players used to make so much more. And had a lage fan base. Is it a P.R. issue? Someone isnt promoting or something like they should. I would like to see pool grow again.

[@cry_now_laugh_later]

Pass that

[@Rob_333]

derby city this year was 4 1/8"

[@egroegartfart]

@@Rob_333 that's crazy. I can understand snooker. They are supposed to be small. But they have never made them smaller. They have made pool pockets smaller now 2 or 3 times at least.

[@robdetuinman2]

Get your facts straight dude. It wasn't SvB who was the top earner on pool last year. That was ou Spanish friend Francisco Sanchez-Ruiz with over $260,000. And a 2nd place in earnings was for our Russian friend Fedor Gorst with over $250,000. Let THAT sink in for a minute lol. And the pockets are 4 inch here

[@egroegartfart]

@@robdetuinman2 yah I don't know where the article got it's info that I read but I do see that now. But still 260 k? That's horrible for a pro athlete. That's more than two times less than the lowest paid NFL salary.

[@raystanczak4277]

About that missed 2-ball by Wilson- Yup, he missed something in his usual procedure. We tend to do that on the “easy” shots. My view is that there’s no such thing as an easy shot-they just look easy. Good players don’t miss the easy ones. (Usually) 😎

[@dantetanio4122]
