Did anyone see this match at the Markulis Memorial tournament? I happened to catch T-Rex, John Schmidt match with Tony leading 2-0 games, I don’t remember the ball count but John shot some wild shot and sold out a good shot that Tony dogged leaving the ball hanging.
It was late and I don’t remember exactly what happened but Tony shoots a ball in the top corner putting all three balls remaining balls in play on the spot with the perfect angle for John to go three rails into the lineup but John takes an intentional leaving the cue ball on the rail about a 1/4 diamond from the top center diamond. Tony cuts the top ball shooting hard enough that the cue ball gets close to the center of the table leaving John a good bank. John makes the bank, cuts the lower ball in, banks the next ball, and cuts last ball in to win the game. John goes on to win the next two games to win the match.
I’m hoping that there’s a replay of that match. With Tony on seven I can’t believe he put all the balls in play.
