Centeno? Raga?

PBS Las Vegas Open 2024 (Men&Women),10 ball, (Feb 21-24) Men’s Winner $30K/ Women’s Winner $18K
- Thread starter spartan
- Start date
I believe it was a shot clock violation before shooting the 10 ball.
true, but raga is not (yet) a frequent campaigner
I'm just tuning in. Predator finally improved the scoreboard. Now I know what's going on with the shootout. Way better than last year.

Centeno hitting the center of the pocket on the shootout. Seo still looking strong, though.
Great match.

And right as I said that, Seo misses the fourth shot. Centeno wins to advance to the final.
I don't like how they added the shootout score to the game score.
Is Siming the other finalist?
Yes! Chezka was down and just about out in the third set. It was 2-0 Seo and she was running out for 3-0 when she miscued on an easy nine ball. Seen it happen before when a player gets near the goal line. They quit thinking about the shot and let their mind wander. They forget to get set properly for the next easy shot. You still have to hit the cue ball in the right place, even on the easiest shot! From there Chezka found a way to tie it up 3-3 and force a shootout. She hit every spot shot in the heart of the pocket and Seo flinched. I do like that they are playing a third set now and not starting a shootout at 2-2. Much more play this way.
Nice to see the proper color balls and credit for the good TV coverage (streaming technology/quality has caught up with regular televised sports). The Pinoys are still the best! Carlo vs. Lee Van in the final. Love watching Lee Van caress that cue ball from shot to shot. He's a maestro pool player.
Good television production, good commentary, and some excellent pool to watch. What's not to like!
Siming vs Chezka coming up. I'm super looking forward to this! Siming was robbed of 4 years!
Chezka is always super fun to watch.
I'm staying home to watch instead of going to play pool

Rack 1 Siming from the 7 to the 9 was very pretty!

Woodshaft
Do what works for YOU!
An interesting sidenote: All 4 of the Women's semifinalists are using wood shafts, and 3 of the 4 men are too. And FSR (cf Cynergy) is out now. Maybe the less stiff (less powerful) wood shafts give an advantage on these very fast tables?
Definitely don't need a powerful cf shaft to move the ball on these crappy Predator tables/cloth lol.
Not dissing carbon fiber, just an observation...

Siming has a super nice Rolex.
