Don't mess with Mike
 

f you're in a pool hall, and have agreed to play for money, and your name isn't Shane Van Boening, you might be in trouble if your opponent decided to break like this. (under 30 seconds)

Actually, a cue ball break speed thing...that's why the cell phones on the table. There's an app for measuring cue ball speed during a break. You'll seldom see a pro do this in tournament play. Fast isn't accurate, only spectacular to watch. A cut break is mostly used these days, where the wing ball goes in a corner pocket with boring regularity....and often the one will go into the side. The break speed varies from table to table to accomplish this, but the top pros adapt quickly. Mike is generally recongnized as the #2 USA player, Shane #1. Here Mike's "just showin' off". ;)

Stuff is flyin all over the place.

Must be a pool thing.

As a drunk college kid, I broke the very expensive light hanging over the table. Cost me a bunch as I recall....
