Billiards Pool U.S. Open 9-Ball: Strickland v. Bustamante

BClub asked:
There’s no other pool player around like Earl Strickland. Even his mother gets in on this action.
On the other side of the table, there’s Francisco Bustamante. He’s smooth and special at what he does and he’s always worth the price of admission.

Yeah, I agree. You might could say that 9 ball is a little easier than snooker. So what? Only one can be the best, and just because there’s a great snooker player doesn’t nessesarily mean he’ll beat the 9 ball world champion.

Why do snooker fans feel the need to watch these videos and bitch about 9 ball all the time! It never fails. Every video has someone doing this. Just watch snooker then! No one is forcing you to watch 9-ball and bitch about the pocket size.

these pockets are like buckets, im sure its tuff for 9ball standards, but over here with small rounded corner pockets, if u dont run the rail perfect it doesnt go in…this is slop shot central.

diamond tables have the smallest pockets pool has to offer. I’ve played in tournaments on them and they play tough.

The Snooker players that bother to play 9 ball are the washed up old players! You need good eyesight for Snooker and when it goes they may switch to 9 ball for a bit of fun!

This is what snooker players always say. It might be easy… thats why the player on the table shouldnt miss otherwise the game will go to the opponent. Its not just skill its more of strategy. An d FYI some snooker player play 9 ball too and they dont really do that good against 9 ball players.

Believe me i prefer pool to snooker as snooker is a very hard game!

These pockets are as small as the game of pool offers actually. So there’s no sence in complaining about them being too big. That’s just ignorant.
And there’s no sence in comparing snooker players to 9 ball players. Offensivly, yeah your right, you’re beloved snooker players are potentially much better, but deffensivly (which is what counts most) alot of snooker players aren’t up to par. 9-ball is more like chess than it is snooker so stop comparaing.

Game 1 was a classic. All those safeties, and then–finally–Bustamante strikes! Too bad Strickland kinda lost interest in the later part of the match (but he was gracious in his congratulations anyway).
