This is the shane i remember watching in the early-mid teens

[@stevepeterson436]

SVB just put on a clinic. When he is focused, he is almost unbeatable.

[@alexvo6873]

Such a clear thinking from Shane! So great to watch.

[@ruskyhrahsel7723]

Matchroom production is the best by far

[@scottboyne8305]

Congratulations Shane

[@vebnew]

Beautiful play

[@speedbagboxer7451]

It’s annoying when the announcers call a shot and are totally wrong, then they say a 6 inch extension is 12 inch, n when they say “they all go” or “it goes”.

[@egroegartfart]

Have they worked out whatever issues people were complaining about with the predator table? I was going to get one but was talked out of it because everyone said they were terrible tables and didn't like how they banked and all kinds of other things. So I really don't know what to believe. They look great to me although I have never played on one. I did end up getting the diamond blue label 9 foot which I am super happy with. But I am just wondering if they did fix whatever issues the predator tables had? Thanks.

[@horaceball5418]

Did you ever watch To Catch A Predator? It is a KZbin video on the history of Predator tables. Czech it out.

[@perun4649]

i also didnt play on then, buy they looks veryyy nice

[@torinopro422]

Tell that guy it is a 6" extension not a 12.....lol hate to hear what he tells women.....😂😂😂

[@BoBurson]

Commentators: please stop spoiling the other matches for viewers by reading concurrent scores.

[@loyalty_royalty6195]

I agree lol takes away the suspense

[@napostrophen]

It would probably be better for you to look on their website for ongoing matches. If you’re waiting for KZbin to announce matches then that’s the wrong way to do it😅

*Shanes Rocking It. Notice WPA is featuring, streaming every SVB Match. And will do so tomorrow, 10/21/2023 against FSR. Great for Fans*

shane is very good at 8 balls

[@Youssefudefy]

They’re more like 15 balls if you do the counting

[@danakreber2249]

Ya think ?

[@ruskyhrahsel7723]

It's 8ball, not 8 balls. It's 15 balls and one cue ball

[@samphilipp4997]

It's called 8 ball so maybe dude accidentally put an s at the end.

[@PostUp_Time]

@@Youssefudefy *players dont pocket 15 balls, they pocket 8 balls, hence the game of 8 ball, and winning by pocketing the 8th Ball, Eight Ball*

Wtf kuko el mejor de Colombia en las gradas???😂💪🏻

[@user-ub8zf3kh8w]

Why not alternate Break?

[@egroegartfart]

The commentators kept saying in the second game that the 10 ball didnt go anywhere. It went in the bottom right pocket. Clear as day.

[@Pwrcritter]

Kacis a beast

[@RichardsWorld]

Shane is a beast killer.

[@ki21826]

I love Shane's game but he tiks me off sometimes how he's got a look of disgust on his face when he is absolutely destroying him I'm like come on what more do you want 😂😂

[@Gmossy11]

I was like that is not 1 foot extension it don’t make sense

[@alucardx1234]

Shane is playing against himself, he's hyper focused on his own game and what he expects from himself. It's not really about his opponent.

[@horaceball5418]

This crowd is out of control!

[@TheJohnCooperShow]

What happened to Kazakis. He was looking almost unplayable at one point but after his masters win has gone quiet

[@ceretomer5987]

Shane Van Boening happened.

[@horaceball5418]

I agree ... he got Boened.@@ceretomer5987

[@ianmastrangelo2427]

I think that's just how it goes. Everyone has their hot and cold streaks, Jayson Shaw had a year of pretty much complete dominance and he only recently won another major title. His first Matchroom one I believe. Nobody wins em all....

[@daryldawdy4001]

Alex's cue ball was past the line on the 13th game break

[@trueamerican2305]

Someone needs to tell the officials and get him banned for life. Cheaters and cheating will not be tolerated!!

[@kishorenavale1259]

[@vniamhere]

Đánh này ai chơi 😂

[@justsomeguy6474]

Yeah, this is why 8 ball should only be played on a 7ft table. It's the small table and lots of balls that makes it so tough. You see pro snooker players playing 8 ball not 9 ball!

[@kostastsingistras6699]

In Greece we play most of the time 8ball and a little bit of 9ball also we don't even know what is a 10ball

[@randallgibson8619]

It’s the same as 9 just an extra ball and rack looks like a smaller 8 ball rack.

[@trueamerican2305]

More Emily Frazer please ❤️

No Filipinos participated in this tournament? and the top players from ASIA?

[@magicayu]

Hayato Hijikata is in this tournament FYI.

They all did... they just got beaten in the early matches and didn't go very far in the tournament.

@@trueamerican2305 I checked the player's list, 96 players, none from the Philippines participated, and few from other Asian countries.

@slash7741 well regardless if they had been there , the results would have been the same. They were probably at a "Action cue" event... this was a "Predator" event. Idk

what's your point? We all know Alex is a really good player, but that was then, this is now.

Two totally different games lol is my point but yes Alex is a good player

Luck

[@DRAG0NSIN7]

Kazakis is the worst lol. Had 1 good win then he went back to choking lol

[@PostUp_Time]

SVB chokes with Seaman when he plays 9 ball. Better he play with 8 balls and without Seaman.

[@horaceball5418]

Come on, don't talk like that, good Christians don't talk like that.
