The Best on the planet

50 seconds of your time...just one shot may give you a clue why Shane Van Boening of South Dakota is currently ranked #1 in the world. Yes, he called the 10 ball...

How the heck do you loft the cue ball and know KNOW it's going to land, roll and strike the combo properly?

Wicked skilz.
On the last shot, he also called the 10, the opponent said “if you make this one, I quit”
I Expected him to make it. 😳

A wag on a pool site I visit said; "Never bet against SVB. Unless he's playing a Phillipino. Then don't bet, just enjoy the show." Poor Alex (his opponent). He thought he'd made a perfect safety shot...

He didn't know really, just knew there was a chance, so called the ball to avoid penalty. 10 ball is a call shot game...of course, as a courtesy, they don't really call the obvious ones in the interest of keeping the game moving. Still, Shane is an absolutely amazing player to watch. I doubt anybody can break or control the cue ball as well.
