how many players left?

Freezing and having to refresh quite a bit.

Potts up 6-4 right now. He has an awesome stroke. http://live.qq.com/zs8q2

 

[skip100]

Potts wins to head to the final. He had 7 straight match wins in the losers' bracket.

 

[Slasher]

He missed more balls in that match than the whole tournament I think but he almost ran the clock out and with a minute to spare he runs out the winner 13-10

Potts down 3-0 right now.

 

[skip100]

5-1 and we're in a seemingly neverending time out period.

Race to 19! It's 5-3 now, could go another 3 hours! Do they have a time limit on the final match?

http://alison-chang.com/2017-joy-world-chinese-8-ball-masters-schedule/ According to this it's still 140 minutes but that seems low.

This guy Zhang is damn good.

Right as I post this he dogs an 8 ball... haha

You could see the match timer for a second just now. It says there is just over 1 hour left. Who knows if they stick to it though.

what time did it start?

 

[skip100]

what time did it start?

Not sure. And now there's another time out?

Either the timer is not happening or the race to 19 is not happening...

 

[skip100]

I love their breaks where balls symmetrically and slowly roll in the opposite side pockets.

 

[AtLarge]

ever figure out what that penguin window is?

 

[skip100]

Nope

The crowd does not look particularly pleased at Potts taking the lead 8-7.

 

[AtLarge]

I think it has been just about 100 minutes now since the starting time on that schedule. But maybe the clock stops during timeouts.

I really like the pace of play here. Appleton's event going on now could sure use a shot clock in some of those matches. They're averaging over 7 minutes per game, and one streamed match went 9.1 minutes per game.

A shot clock makes everything better. :thumbup:
