  1. looked like Roland clearly fouled that 4 ball around 25min mark in game #5. Saw it when he was lining up to shoot and on both replays. Don't know how the commentators say they didn't see it. Did the judge look at the replay??

  2. Mike is looking very healthy and good glad to see that haven't heard much about him lately last I heard he was selling windows or something like that lol but his Fargo rating is pretty damn strong

  3. 25:00 he does touch the 4 ball. This was supposed to be ball in hand fore Mike. The slow motion makes it harder to see unless you have 4k camera. So you can't go by that.
    56:28 Mike was not tapping him on the shoulder to apologize. He was telling him to not block his view when he's looking at the balls. To Mike's mind he stood up too early. But Mike will b*tch about anything.

  4. 1:09:47 – "I don't know if other people shoot it that way, too, but… I heard that from JOHN TURTURRO many years ago." Ok, I know you didn't say John Turturro, but my brain heard that and now you're Matt Damon from Rounders to me. Which is awesome!

  5. Dechaine gets a lot of shit and he certainly earned it back in the day. But idk, I'm kind of glad to see him at the table. Like him or not, he's a great player. If he's adjusted his attitude during his time away, I'm definitely in favor of him getting another shot (say, on the Mosconi team). Remember that Albin Ouschan used to be the Mike Dechaine of Europe – hair-trigger, moody, would get down on himself and act out. Albin worked on that and is now one of Europe's favorite players. Maybe Dechaine has that in him, too. Wouldn't that be awesome? The US needs more high-level players, and Dechaine is one of them. Imo, don't dismiss him just yet. Personally, I'd love it if he has chilled out and he's back to stay. It bears repeating: We desperately need more high-level, active players in the US.
