Under current WNT policies, players have to play two “majors” to qualify for the Mosconi Cup or Reyes Cup. If Fedor skipped the European Open and UK Open (as I think he and Shane did) then they have to play US Open and Philippines Open to qualify.

So they are pretty much guaranteed to go play the Philippines Open, IMO.

Gorst actually played in both the UK and European opens. Did not finish high in either. Shane played in the Florida, Arizona and U.S. opens. He already said he’d play in the Reyes Cup. I’d expect him at the Philippines Open.

Not a bad month for Pecelj. Earned $59,000 and will probably qualify for the Mosconi. That would be another $20,000 minimum.

I've said before that my ideal pool hall would have good blues music playing in the background, but soft enough you can talk over it and good bbq cooking in the kitchen and classic old 9 foot tables with green cloth and Masters chalk

I am old school all the way....which should include smoking, but I hate that stench and it just killed my wife of 49 years.

Great run these past 3 weeks from Aleksa. He has played some tremendous pool and showed some real heart in his comeback’s.

Indeed.
3 scratches on the break in the semies were just too much. So unlucky..
Every comeback attempt was interupted by a scratch on a break

But! He is here to stay! We'll see him!

I'll tell you exactly why. If you played on these tables with these balls, you'd want a light cue to, it's the easiest way to consistently hit soft enough.

I always used a 15 or 16 playing on bar tables.

Nope, I’m right there with you. The other thing I HATE, is the blasting stupidly loud music in some pool room / bars.. Studies have shown folks consume more alcohol when the music is blasting.
That’s all they care about is selling booze…
Stopped going to several places in NC. Blasting music, blasting led lights GTFO!

Yep.. because selling booze as you put it has a high profit margin and they are a business who needs to make money. So selling “booze” is important. Here in pa a liquor license to sell “booze” will cost you over 400k so you better bet that if I own a bar or pool hall that sells it I’m going to be pushing “booze”

I honestly was never bothered my smoking until places started going non smoking. Now when the rare occurrence that I play in a league or tournament at a private club that has smoking I want to set my clothes on fire when I get home lol I remember opening my cue case the next day after some of the really bad bars and the stench being horrible.
