Earl Strickland vs Jayson Shaw | Match Five | 2022 Mosconi Cup

[@TheJohnCooperShow]

Boyes is such as brilliant commentator and doesnt get enough love. hes knowlegeable but also got that cheeky humour which is entertaining

[@JoeTheScientist]

I agree, he's definitely one of my favorites.

[@uncledude2091]

He's definitely my favorite. I'd much rather him over Jeremy Jones trying to coach my through the entire match and putting me to sleep with his monotone voice.

[@2Blayzar]

Keep crying...earl was is and will be a garbage and a bad pool player

[@3-ij696]

did u realize how old is he? shake on u with that statement

[@maurotradesfx]

@@3-ij696 what does age have to do with anything. This is vintage Earl. My point is not about Earl’s predisposition right now that he’s 60+, it’s about Earl recurring attitude. If you can’t read or understand your own language, this is on you chief. So defensive! I have watched every Earl’s game that is available and I’m a fan so shame on you for being defensive and so sensitive for no bloody reason.

[@darrenweston9602]

Great composure while the crowd tasted, then gave it large at the end, love it!!

[@davidgerber9317]

Jayson was the better player here, but Earl did get some tough rolls (and I know he's had a ton of good rolls over the years), and Earl was sportsman-like at the end of the match (which isn't always the case). Jayson's safety play was a big part of why he won.

Have you guys ever seen the Ryder Cup in golf? It's also USA/Europe and the spectator vibe is the same. I personally love it. People are complaining about the fans but for one tournament it's actually such a fun little detail that at times makes a huge difference in matches.

[@VetteWay2Fast]

Agreed, the crowd participation and enthusiasm is what makes these team events special. If they made everyone be quite like normal events, it would just be another golf clap event and lose its uniqueness

@@corey1845 I don't think he insulted any pro player? It's just a common sentiment of "ehh, the powers that be just make changes to show they can make changes."

[@capoman1]

They changed it for television. The red 3, orange 5, and maroon 7 would show up on camera too close in color to distinguish.... So they made them red 3, pink 4, purple 5, and brown 7. I have no idea why they didn't just change the 5 from orange to pink and leave the 4 purple.

[@RichardsWorld]

Shane is one of the few people that Earl thinks is better him. That's why only Shane was coaching Earl.

[@soulmusic775]

No one cares about the game of pool more than earl. And no one is a better person to have in your corner than Shane. I absolutely love these 2 guys. Earl you shot great. It came down to luck at the end of it all and Shaw had more of it that day. And Shaw is a great pot maker. I play a lot like him. Being a great ball potter and having a good stroke sometimes takes away from position and control. But you have to know your strengths as well as weaknesses. Great match and I hope to see more of all of these guys for a while to come

[@jabeesguerra4898]

The Pearl might've lost the match... but that safety battle in the first rack! Gotta admire his tenacity, eventually wrestling the initiative from Shaw.

[@GoharRehmani]

In the entire match, Jayson was booed and mocked by the crowd, then what you guys specially Americans in the comment section expect other then this celebration. I loved how he silenced the entire American crowd in the erena as well as here.

[@AccordionJoe1]

If professional pool players want to be regarded as athletes, they need to look like it. Earl has been developing a bit of a beer belly and Shaw has gained five pounds a year ever since he turned pro.

53 minutos si desperdicio, un juego muy emocionante

[@guywebster8505]

Can anyone answer this for me please.. What's the rule behind Stricklands SECOND shot of the FIRST frame, where he just rolled it to the side rail without contact on a ball... why isn't that a fowl?

[@trident1314]

It's called a push out look it up

[@guywebster8505]

Thank you, yeah just had a little read! Didn't know what it was called so couldn't search it up! So the opponent can choose to take the shot following the push shot, or return it. I would end up forgetting about that rule lol@@trident1314

[@bleearg13]

Well for one, it's a ball, not a game bird like partridge or ptarmigan. Second, it's a push shot which is a choice made by the player up immediately after the break - they can choose to take a shot or 'push', which the other player can then choose to shoot or pass back to the opponent. It's a skill in and of itself.

[@vebnew]

Shaw ---- the man

[@wcmacster]

what size table are they playing on?

[@RadicalNomad97]

All the yelling and cheering on every shot is pretty obnoxious. Just shut up and spectate, it isn’t a damn football game .

[@capoman1]

Shaw gets in Earl's head. When Shaw first came to live in the US, he played at Steinway, Earl's pool room. Shaw beat Earl for money early on when he arrived. Earl was house pro and Shaw was doing really well and lost his backer.... Steinway told Shaw he could be house pro #2 AND he'd share Earl's apartment. So I think Shaw intimidated Earl.

[@raskolnjikov1]

Tried to remember how Earl lost this and then it came to me, the cut on the 8. That was insane to take on but he wanted to be the hero, felt good potting balls. Too bad

[@Stellarffxi]

Earl nearly had him, at 60 years old. When Earl was 30, he'd have given Shaw taxi money and told him to come back after he practiced some more. Night and day difference between Earl 60 and Earl 30. These guys wouldn't know how to compete against guys like Archer, Reyes varner and Strickland

[@bigknocker2264]

I love both these guys. Jason Shaw is intriguing to me because he appears to be dominant right-eyed despite being left handed, and he hold the straight pool run record. I'm right handed and dominant left-eyed. Proof to me me that I have no excuse for not being able to shoot. Being 69 years old doesn't help, but it's also part of the challenge!

[@sammysam1257]

I liked Earl there for the most part. Which usually isn't the case. I thought I was going to watch a match without hearing, "lucky". But, he snuck one in. I feel he has something along of rookies like myself struggle with, which is moving on from mistakes... That 6th rack that Jayson had the break. That spin he was talking about adding bit him in the butt on that scratch. I love Shane. He tried to talk Earl out of the past. But he couldn't shake the mind I feel. I enjoyed watching this one. Jayson climbed out and kept the focus. It would be hard not to rub it in like he did when the crowd was going like they did. I loved it all either way. I didn't catch this match last month.

[@broomeydbr9]

12:26 what did he ask? Basically seemed like he was asking "are you refereeing correctly?" But what did he actually say?

I have newfound respect for Earl after watching this match. He managed to keep it together, but he is his own worst enemy mind-wise. It didn’t help that Earl kept getting bad rolls, scratching, etc. Without SVB there, he’d have completely fallen apart. I hate the noise level when players are trying to shoot or figuring their next move. That must wreak havoc on a player’s mind. It sure would mess with me.
