Is mike really this good of an 8 ball player?
I don't know, but I imagine him just winning the 15 ball rotation tourney helped his confidence and 8 ball game.
... races feel a bit short to me, 11 or 13 seem like they would be more telling and not take too much longer.
These 8-Ball matches certainly can be short, like the Bustamante match tonight with 8 B&R's in 11 games.
But the average length of tonight's 5 matches was 104 minutes. For comparison, the average length of the 14 streamed 10-Ball races to 9 was 105 minutes.
i think people are just starting to warm up to the more unfamiliar players which will ultimately get them on the stream more. It's probably really hard deciding which match to show at any given time, with that said tomorrow's line up is killer. It is also good to see mike d. Playing on camera the way he does off camera, now people see why he was on the mosconi cup team consistently. i have no idea who is going to snap this tourney off....races feel a bit short to me, 11 or 13 seem like they would be more telling and not take too much longer.
Kozoom probably spent $20-$30K streaming that event and that doesnt include what they invested in tech to do the multiple table scoring and streaming. Our budget is a fraction of that for a crew of five for ten days.
As to the audio level difference between commercials I'll fix that today.
We are creating a lot of content here that no one has seen yet that will be released after the event. One particular project is one of the best things I have ever worked on.
Here is the schedule for today. All times are pacific standard time. The scheduled primary TV matches are in red.
