I watched extended highlights of the Jayson Shaw v Fedor Gorst match and they were both unbelievably erratic. Jayson looked at his best for the first half of the match and probably should have won comfortably. But around the middle of the match he started missing balls he never would normally, seemed to lose a bit of confidence and let Fedor back into the match. Gorst also missed a lot of shots you really wouldn't expect him to, whilst displaying his normal amazing proficiency with the jump cue. Saw someone comment on Gorsts facebook page that with all the misses it wasn't the Fedor they knew, and Fedor just replied "you don't know me at all" which made me laugh. Must be annoying being in the public eye and everyone piles on when you have a bad day.
Really enjoyed this shot by Jayson when he had to make a bank shot in a split second after realising he didn't have an extension Login to view embedded media
I hadn't heard of the player that beat SVB before. Is that my ignorance or is he fairly unknown?
Jason Shaw has been looking kind of erratic for months compared to the high he was on.. but thats the up and down of pool. It’s what makes svb’s long run amazing.
Hmm. That's strange. Earlier today, during the Regalario/FSR match, Emily Frazer said that the World Pool Masters will be 14 players, with 12 confirmed so far.
Matchroom had invited 16 players to the most recent WPM events before it went on a two-year hiatus. A few months ago, MR announced the event would be expanded to 20 players. The top 14 players in the rankings would get automatic bids and six wild cards would be invited.
Frazer was just referring to the 14 automatic bids. The Philippines Open is the cutoff.
So for you guys using the 2x2 and 2x4 led lights over your table. Essentially that’s the same light source as the $1500 Littman light. But the littman light has a diffuser grate under the lights. I assume that give better distribution. I work In a pool hall and was just wondering how much of a difference the lack of diffuser would make. We have the old Diamond lights, the littman LED light and a couple perimeter lights over our tables.
I built my own wooden frame with (3) 2x2 panel lights and grate diffusers. I tried it without the diffusers, with chrome diffusers, and eventually black diffusers. I ended up with the black as the chrome and no diffuser tests had way too much light bleed on the floor around the table. They made a huge difference in my case.
