Biado and Albin through to last 32 in style want to win this badly. If either win this title, they will make history by being first ever to win Triple Crown of World 8B/9B/10B. The closest to achieve the Triple Crown were Wu and FSR who both won 8B & 9B but fell short finishing runner up in 10B

"…in my experience, using bottom/draw on cuts usually requires cutting slightly more (thinner)." Never heard of this, and can’t think of a reason for it. Anybody else notice this?

CIT is larger on stun than follow, he's probably talking about that. Imagine a typical 30 degree cut shot at medium/soft speed, you will have to overcut it slightly more if the CB has no roll on impact (stun) compared to if the CB is rolling on impact.

Testing Kicks and Banks on Diamond Brand Tables, and How to Adjust Aiming

Crazy stuff can happen, too.

A few weeks ago, I shot a seemingly simple 2-1 kick on a GC4 I play on regularly in a DC suburb. The shot was way off.

After my match was over, I practiced the same 2-1 bank and it was quite short. A very slight amount of running spin solved the issue.

Then I practiced the classic Corner 5 shot. I could not get the CB to go into the opposite pocket from where I shot hitting the third, second or first diamond. Didn’t matter the speed or spin.

Just a week earlier, the same table kicked just fine and I pocketed the Corner 5 shot consistently hitting the second diamond.

I’ve never played on a table that was so off from one week to the next!
