Earl is pleasant to listen to. I like his advice to amateurs and weekend pool players.

[@daaam2160]

Earls commentary is so valuable. Anticipating a pattern in a pro match gives so much insight. It wouldve been great to have gotten this info 20 yrs ago for me. I only hope you amateur players and weekend players learn something here

[@barbarasteed3966]

Old player still learning..

[@godjhaka7376]

@@barbarasteed3966 that's life

[@hustlinao1488]

Never understood that either?Aim at bottom right of cue ball but when they actually hit the cue ball,they're hitting top right?

[@marginality270]

A few random thoughts i had while watching: This was back during a time when both of these gentleman were more of a pleasure to watch. (Except for this 1:28:58, 12 seconds duration) they seemed to struggle less with both strategy and execution than they do now -- even with this unusual table response. What a difference five years make. Today, both of them seem (to me) to have to do more grinding it out and still not always getting comfortable results. I like to see each of these two do well because i know that they can. But, it isn't as much fun to watch them anymore as it was here. 1:08:42 (6 seconds duration) Better than *most* of them, _i'd_ say, Earl.

[@billiardnetwork]

u are right...players tend to spent more time in preparing the shot....it has come from the european approach to the game

[@marginality270]

@@billiardnetwork ...And, their random results show well the problem with using that approach if it's out of sync with their natural rhythm. Philippines and Chinese Taipei have most of the best players in the world and few, if any, of them spend 4 to 6 weeks measuring and angling between every shot. There's merit to that admonition: 'Study long, study wrong'. In most cases, if you can't see what needs to be done in a few seconds, there's a good chance you're not going to be able to _do_ it, either.

[@davidparker8475]

Earl, is placement pool the same as 15 ball rotation when you begin with ball in hand after the break? Thanks.

[@billiardnetwork]

placement pool requires a projector

Earl strickland has to be one of the best commentator in sport's history. Glad to be alive to watch and hear him talk about pool and life.

[@pokemonmaster7095]

Earl is probably one of my favorite commentators. He calls almost every shot and focuses on the match the whole time. He also doesn’t make extra noise in the background, so that’s a plus! Please keep Earl as a commentator!

[@billiardnetwork]

glad u appreciate this series...make sure to check out all the episodes

[@albertoperez161]

I will say it again... I hate Earls antics most of the time when he plays and specially when he loses BUT man do i love to hear him commentating!!!

[@wcmacster]

we all have our flaws! and we get better as we get older.

[@gino2033]

Another perfect match called by the G.O.A.T. the person(s) responsable for putting Earl Strickland in his element and giving him the voice without the jealous criticism of non players who only watch a 10th of Games they have ever played. Thank you Billiard Network and the personal who have made this happen.

[@billiardnetwork]

Thanks

[@logic368]

Can we get him to commentate a match with him vs Efren? Every time he talks about something Efren did brings a tear to my eye.

First for this one this is going to be awesome can't wait to hear Earl's thoughts on these two world champions thanks for the upload

[@shawjoe71]

You can tell Earl is unfiltered when he starts mumbling comments to himself, like he's not even aware he's being recorded, he's just talking. Those are the best moments.

[@billiardnetwork]

We get more from Earl commenting than the second, third, and forth best commentators put together could do. Funnier Too, by a long shot.

@Billiard Network. Earl please join the Joe Rogan podcast! He might have mimicked your voice but he loves you! Also, when you do join his podcast let him know that I would love to play pool against both of you. thanks Earl. Your commentary is the best on KZbin.

[@SeedSix]

Earl's shot calling on these matches is not only spot on most of the time, but also entertaining and a priceless gift to current and future pool players. 💯👍

[@4FastEddie1]

earl you are too modest and too hard on yourself, i doubt you have lost any particular shot or technique, we all get older but look you are still in it and im pulling for you, by in it i mean profesional billiards, you changed the game by raising the bar, and some of these guys are generations younger and playing like crazy, you did that as much if not more than any other pro or am.you helped hook me for life this isnt just a game it is a sport and as a apa lvl 8 in 9 ball and lvl 7 in 8ball , at age 65 by the way and im certain that i have not peaked yet the games and sport of pool make me competitve with many many younger guns, keeps me active and gives my mind and body a workout and a high you cannot buy. thanks earl .

[@LeeWanner]

I always come back for The Pearl!

[@AndrewT]

Really great match here. Even despite the less than optimal playing conditions (as reported by Earl) these guys played some incredible pool. Picked up a few new tidbits thanks to Earl's detailed and insightful commentary.

[@billiardnetwork]

I really enjoy Earl’s commentaries. He offers very insightful explanations of a players’ possible strategies, as well as the cue mechanics (high left, low right, etc.) that will probably be used to complete the shot...and much more! Thanks Earl.

Great players, great commentator, great game, thanks a lot Billard Network. The only problem I have with this game is there is no timer so I loose a lot of good comments from Earl since I have to use a lot my 'L' key on my keyboard to jump 10 seconds each time (my fault, need to relax more...).

Shane is just deadly when he’s in the zone but Alex looked really good too

[@michelnuevo2365]

Great match, but I really don't understand how people can enjoy the comments... He's the only person commenting I've heard who talks about himself when other people are playing, telling about the way he plays/played and how well he did it. That's so arrogant and annoying when he talks. Being a top professional player doesn't make you the god of the game, and honestly, there are and were much better players than him. Not to mention more humble...
