There will never be another Earl Strickland!
Earl Strickland jr
Earl Strickland in his prime (80’s & 90’s) was dam near impossible to beat.
Earl and Shane look like father and son lol
They do tho
Maybe the first pool match I've ever seen that's even more entertaining with just the audio lol. Those two are a hoot.
Most impressive to me about Strickland is that he has stayed relevant and competitive as the standard of pool has improved fairly significantly over the last 40 years. To think someone could win a championship in 1983, and then be selected for the 2022 Mosconi cup America's team is simply amazing. Real shame he wasn't able to play.
It would be great to hear Earl commentate this match
These legends are running racks like legends yet the commentators can't shut up with how Shane and Earl are playing every shot wrong, shooting the wrong order, hitting the balls the wrong way, on and on. Someone send a memo the commentators that this isn't their match. Also we want to hear what Earl is saying to the referee and the crowd, but naturally the commentators are rambling over the room audio about how they would play the match better.
I usually like these guys a lot but they were way too critical of the shot choices. Probably the two best to ever play the game and nearly every shot choice was wrong?
Well put. And I've never felt, thought or said just STFU ALREADY as much...ever !
coming from earl Strickland commentary he makes these '' pro '' commentators sound like fools..
Lmfao, two commentators in the moment vs earl commentating knowing what's going to happen 😂
Yup these commentators are hating and misleading people.
I used to hate Earl, but I am really starting to love the guy. What a player, so much knowledge and raw ability. He has to go down as one of the best players in our lifetime.
best 9-ball player ever. not the best all around player, but imo the best player of the main discipline. we will see what filler will do, he has got the same qualities but is still young
He’s awesome. He’s gone too far a couple times but in general he’s a great dude.
@@pechinma I always considered SVB one of the greatest 8 ball players maybe tied with Efren Reyes for 8 ball, and here in one of few 8 ball matches I can find with Earl, Earl defeats SVB pretty soundly?
@@marshalcraft with that ability he can/could beat anyone under the right circumstances. but he never had the consistency and pattern play of the great 8-ball players (to which i would add bustie, darren and hohmann).
@@pechinma @pechinma Those three are very iconic 8 ball players, really are, I personally have noted them many times, but SVB, Reyes, and younger Ko in my opinion have very large tournament wins, which is why I consider those 3 to be the very best 8 ballers, then there is bustie, darren, hohmann, alex pagulayan, Melling, Hatch, Seigel, Archer, Ronnie O'sullivan, Lin ( I believe that's his name? I forget some chinese and taipai players) I would say is my favorite 8 ball players of all time, with SVB and Reyes being the best, and the 3 you mentioned probably the next in line. Archer and Melling I rate highly, as well as Pagulayan, has played some of the best 8 ball to watch.
These commentators are like bickering brothers, hilarious.
Always gotta watch these videos with no sound because of the commentators. 🤦🏾♂️ The old guy is just always looking to argue.
I love the relationship SvB and The Pearl seem to have. In between racks they chat and laugh. I saw them together in the Mosconi Cup and SvB was the only one able to keep Earl focused on playing.
Would of liked to see Shane and Earl player each other both at their prime. Earl can still play, however in his prime he was a machine. SVB is more calculated and probably better suited for 8 ball, however earl would of been the better 9 ball player. Both of them are 5 time US 9 ball champions.
Earl is entertainment plus. Cheers guys.
I don't care if these two commentators are good friends or not they sound like they're arguing throughout this entire match! It was a huge distraction that took away from a great match between two of the best players in the game!
you don't know how to listen then. they are clearly being humorous and bantering. i feel sorry for your spouse if you can't understand how humans talk to each other.
Earl did some amazing great shots in here!!!
The commentators, the players, the audiance, the ambiance... These were the best times for pool... Now the pool has been Teaacheayaed
Great match. Especially with the mute on. Its way better watching pro play without talking. Unless its the player talking. My opinion thou. Thanks for the video share.
When Earl is mouthing the announcers need to shut up so we can hear Earl's nonsense. Can we go back in time and correct this please
Fun match to watch. Earl hit some amazing shots. Great to see the 2 of them interact.
Good and very rare match between two greatest champions..
Thank you...
This was awesome all the way around thanks for posting this for us
Earl Strickland in his 50’s is still amazing. Danny is right, Earl is not intimidated by anyone! Strickland won five US 9-Ball championships and three World 9-Ball Championships in an era when the competition was fierce.
Earl. Love him or love him, you gotta love him.
That 10 ball was spinning forever on that break at 5:53 😂😂😂
Love watching this type of match
Lol @ Shane's facial expressions. What a great match! Thanks guys
Commentators take away from the greatness.
Thank you Accu-Stats very much for this match.
You're welcome
These announcers are as much fun as the match! Billiards version of Gorilla Monsson and Bobby The Brain.
Great match🤘🔥
Great match
Great match thanks
Excellent!!!!!!!!!!!!!
" I know you want to talk Billy" man that would have cheesed me off!!! Danny's usually a pretty good commentator but this morning he must have woke up with a hemorrhoid. He sounds mad about something
Great match, with the right winner, and great commentating....
Man, these commentators really suck. They talked over each other the whole time, they said the exact same thing every single rack, and that old man thinks he’s right about everything he says. It’s like they don’t understand the point of commentary is to add to the viewing experience, not distract from it.
At one hour in if they would STFU we could hear what Earl was regalling the crowd with. But noooooo...........
They are classic, half as fun as the match, like a married couple comedy routine. lol
These two commentators bicker like a old married couple
Why in God's name do you guys keep posting videos with Danny commentating. He's the Jason Witten of pool. Absolutely dense when he's not playing the table 30 years ago lol
Thank you accu stats great vide earl shot great this match the cut on that 7😯
Would love to see sigel vs strickland living legends match
Legendary game and I enjoyed the commentary.
I think the announcers are hilarious. They talk to much, but they dont care what people think!
Billy has issues he has to be right it's almost hard to listen to the matches argumentative loves to hear himself talk everybody has a right to be themselves but goodness gracious Billy
Mr Earl the pearl , what an artist.
This is one of the best matches I've seen.
It's interesting watching the pros play 8 ball rather than rotation games, hardly any safes.
Thank u for 8 ball match
what a great match and great commendary , once again thank you accu-stats
Much appreciated
Commentators 🤬
Good match to watch 😂😂❤
I finally figured out who Earl reminds me of.
All the guys I work with who come and hate there job and bitch about everything! Lmao!!!
had the pleasure of meeting Earl and Varner in 1993 VA Beach I was 20 shooting the best pool of life best pool hall ever Bay Billiards what a pool hall for those that remember that place
It's so nice to hear billy and Danny always agreeing on the shot selection or pattern run out. NOT
That's the best part . . . disagreeing!
@@AccuStats as a fan and past customer of accu stats, if you were in my shoes and listened to them disagree on 95 % of what's being said you would have a different opinion. Look at other comments that are being made , very similar to mine
Loving the commentaries. If you dont like them you are the problem.
its always interesting seeing these games where shane had some struggles because this dude is usually perfect lmao
what an amazing game! (after I turned the sound off!!) It's really time to get rid of those 2 arguing muppets Statler and Waldorf and get a couple of good commentators!!
Earl is incredible
The truth is, Earl has not been in his prime for many years. These players today could not consistently handle him during those times. Only Efren was as good or better then. I am talking about his ability. Leave out the likability comments.
Thank you for your stream, always fun.
Really a hot match
A great breaking contest.
That was one hell of a match, the shots made by Earl.
what a treat 2 best out of the USA
Para master hebat semua bagus
Classic earl complaining bout time length on shots then immediately using his extensions lmao
These commentators are ass hats 😂 but I love it
They look like old bar room players
Its with Great sorrow that I must admit SVB is the new GOAT
Commentators remind me of Orange Country Choppers with Paul Sr vs Jr
Van Boening chews gum and stares at an interesting stain on the floor.
"He's much more sociable now"
You notice when Earl is talking, everyone in the audience avoids eye contact with him .
We get more of Earl's personality, than any other player. Well... Minnesota Fats comes close, or maybe passes Earl there.
Which match is that Earl yells at Alex Pagulayan in the crowd?
2 of the most annoying commentators
They're arguing like an old couple
The commentators are so disturbing
Good, aren't they?
@@AccuStats yes they talk too much
I enjoy watching SVB and Earl play together or against they have a good time either way and get along great talking and that alone is one thing SVB doesn't usually do with many. He turns off his hearing aids against many others.
Earl STRICKLAND -- NAIL IT
The constant bickering of these commentators is unbearable.
no it is not. people thinking they are unbearable is immature.
@@isheetfromaswhole3657 Well then, the majority of us are immature.
@@johnstorton yeah, they cant recognize friendly banter and observations based on experience.
Please. Talk more about Lester Schmeggellwiggle
He was hungry for that win! Played out of his shoes! Good stuff!
Thanks guys for wearing a shirt and vest... instead of those hideous shiny sports jerseys.
Can someone make a rule that says "for being a commentator, you have to be an active player"? These "has beens" trying to guess the shots and failing miserably is just annoying to watch after some point.
Idc. They know what they're talking about and are well known commentators.
the old commentator is a know it all. pretty disrespectful to the younger guy
always been like that why they ask him is beyond me
i dont know why they ask him hes awful
Billy is no peach either…
At 28:28, Earl plays the pattern perfectly and opens up the pocket. Danny DiLiberto and Billy Incardona just can't agree.
I can't tell if the commentators are arguing or just passionate
Passionately arguing is all they ever do
Billy and Danny bicker like a old married couple
😂
one of the experiences from many matches that made SVB champion 8 ball now..

The commentators over analyzing every shot is VERY frustrating to listen to.
Earl and Shane are fucking legends! Earl should always be miced up
So, like mice all over him?
Tom (billy) and Jerry (Danny) at it’s finest..
I love the way svb appreciates when the opponent makes a mistake he doesn't take tame standing up especially when he has some games down to catch up,,
Am I the only one that loves the banter these commentators have? Great match too
Agreed. They're a great team together.
Unusual to have more comments about the commentators than the players.
♥♥ Why is Earl using such a short cue stick? I'm used to seeing him use a 70"-75" cue stick. LOL
There was a Medieval Times troupe in town, and one of the jouster's had accidentally left his lance behind. Earl was gracious enough to lend him his cue.
Damn it’s nice to see what it is when Earl is having fun.
Old man did not want to give up the fact that he at us Shane is going up 3-0. My god. Let it go. Yes woo-hoo you called it
Worst thing about watching tournament matches is the commentary.
Man, I miss Danny D as a commentator and Billy is entertaining as well; a lot of 14.1 knowledge in the booth and a lot of talent on the table!
@@wesleysnipes1873 Cada uno a su gusto!
Lester Smellowitz… great guy
He just lost 11-10 to Kaiser Soze
Two rail kick 38:44.... just NUTS!
Great match ruined by crappy commentators... Danny DiLiberto does not know a thing about modern pool.
I really wanna see that iceman vs django match!,!!,!
I always notice there are a bunch people wearing headphones at these matches. What are those for? Are they listening to the commentators?
they are listening to Dubstep.
Gay porn it’s always gay porn
