This guy is just such a character. He'd be a trip to play a game of eight ball with at a bar or something. It's really guys like Alex who make the sport more popular and enjoyable to watch, IMHO.
That is unbelievable. Imagine if he missed the 9 ball on the final shot. He'd probably sue the felt maker.
Haha we'll he did make a mistake on the 2nd to last ball, giving his opponent the ability to come in and finish the rack. They did say the table had brand new felt, which apparently makes the balls roll much easier and farther.
Holy hell...I finally watched this. Very nice indeed. Notice how he even left the cue ball about 18" from center center and an easy shot on the 6. wow. You can't ask for much more than that, except maybe that the 9 ball go too...why not! I imagine he was so amped up he just didn't respect his leave enough. Too bad to lose the rack after that kind of break. Impressive none the less. I made a 5 ball break and almost had 5 heart attacks, unfortunately, I too lost that rack hehe. But hey it just wouldn't be pool if that kind of stuff didn't happen from time to time. I also saw a 5 ball break which included the 9...and it scratched. (6 ball break actually I guess) That one had to hurt.
Alex Pagulayan is my favorite pro. The guy is so much fun to watch. He is just a funny guy with a good sense of humor. Watch this video and you'll see what I mean.
Yea, I finally saw him in a tournament against Boustamante. He had a 9ball to win the match and $50,000 and he turned his head as he shot, missed it, but got back to the table and won. Frickin hilarious, what a player and sportsman, nobody I would rather play. He also screams like a little girl, this guy is just great, so fun to watch.
