Shane Van Boening vs Eklent Kaci: 2019 WPA Players Championship Main Event 

De Luna with that INSANE break for an intro is crazy 😝

Shane is such a great role model to all players he isn't cocky he knows his skill and always shakes his opponent's hand and even when he crushes it, he is HUMBLE

Two of the best in the world: Shane being best at pool and Kaci at being slow.

Hard to follow this match when they're playing with these Easter eggs I don't know why people feel they have to keep changing the color of the pool balls

Thank you Eklent and Shane,, Shane the 9 Ball player.

Can’t get that guys name out of my head ... it’s kind of Kaci ...

Karl and Ben are the best commentators in pool, hands down, bar none.

So many pool experts here who seem to neglect the gentleman's code of not kicking a fellow when he's down. Like to see how many of them can go a round with Shane and leave the hall with more than a goose egg.

Boyes has very quickly become possibly the best commentator in the pool world, in my opinion.

Perfection Van Boening

Svb legend , humble alwahs when he wins never screaming or yelling or getting angry my mvp

I hope commentary pays well because Karl is top notch

Shane is awesome

What a shot 27:27

El mejor del world..

There is no pool gods! Only God!

Shane is my hero

I've seen games where ppl place the 9 ball in the second diamond (e.g. mosconi cup) and games like this one where ppl place the 1 ball in the second diamond? Did the rules change or is it a decision made by the tournament directors?

When are they going to get the audio levels right???

Its 2020. Green cloth bad sound, weird camera.

Do someone know what cue tip shane use

spb amazing

That was a stompin

I don't know how he does it (exactly) but SVB looks unimaginably relaxed on his break shot. Like he's putting almost no effort in it. It's a marvel to witness him break a rack. I don't understand why the camera only shows the rack of balls being broken on many break shots and not the player breaking. Personally I want to watch the player AND the rack being broken ALL the time. What is going through the mind/s of whoever makes this idiotic decision to only show the rack of balls being hit by the breaker ? When I go to watch a live tournament I don't put blinders on my head so I can't see the player/s break the rack. The reason for that is because I want to watch the players break. If blinders on my head were required to watch a pool match I'd NEVER go to a tournament as an observer. So why do these camera men/women think that's what we want to see. It's pathetic.

I'm a noob, can anyone explain to me what Shane is doing at 17:30?

I got 10 on Ben, Karl is all talk! 😂

Did Kaci win the watch in a competition perhaps? 🧐🧐 or jus made a nice personal purchase..

you don't see that old school green much anymore.

Sorry, but I think Shane has to back to his old shaft. Energy is a nice shaft, but is not for him. Well, maybe I'm wrong, but is not the same player.

S.V.B beats dracula

What ?

thank god kaci lost, boring player af without shot clock

what cue is svb using?

is jayson shaw one of the announcers?

4:20 why is that not a foul?

Money is SO pathetic in professional pool now. Sad.

Kaci for Mosconi Cup,,,,,,hmmm????!!

Couldn't watch more than 10 minutes. Kaci is probably the slowest player I've ever seen. Sheesh! He should quit pool and take up checkers.

That 9 ball looks like it was drawn in paint. Ugly af.

Van Boening is so Anti-Social😅😅

A slow player is hard to watch and also annoying to play against. Pool has to have a shot clock, like Mosconi cup has. It should be in the book. Also, pattern braking and other stuff ... just let it be. If you are good enough, run 43 racks in a row. They never changed the order in snooker, ever, did they? All those snooker players can pot any coloured ball from the spot with the cueball anywhere on the table. That is their practice, patterns. Also, in pool it has to be a new rule: points. That is why in snooker the winner gets 300000$ and in pool 3000$. Because snooker has an audience, tv and also a crowd. Both sports are very hard and takes a lot of work and sacrifice to be the best, but the rules are wrong in pool. That is also why they keep changeing them all the time. At each competition there are different rules. Can't use the magic rack, can't use the jump cue, 9 on the spot, shot clock, 3 balls over the brake area, etc. It has to have a scoring system. It is not fair for a player to play like an amateur and pot the 7, 8 and 9 after the pro player didn't get shape after a bank. If all the balls are random on the table, the shots themselves have to have points. Per dificulty and also for taking chances. For example: you get 1 point if you pot the 9 ball. But if the 8 ball is hard and also a shape for 9 is hard, you get 3 points if you pot the 8 ball. This can be done with a software system which has all the angles and all the shots in the database. Before every shot the player can see the points for each shot. Also, if he chooses to play safe versus engage in a hard shot of 3 points. That way, the best player can win and the game/sport can be watched by others. This game is meant to be a race, not a gamble.
