Put me down for some gratitude as well. 

The interview desk, post match, is the new high mark. thanks for raising the bar.
Those are just the tip of the iceberg... Accu-Stats has all new equipment... What we saw for this stream was only Accu-Stats lite... Which means a stream production instead of a full production like is done at the DCC and The US Open which is done of course with Paid Commentary, A full film crew, and All of the cameras....
The camera feeds look great... on stream and more importantly on the recordings and DVDs... This is one of the reasons that ESPN Star has purchased the rights to the US Open...
All HD cameras are not created equally... You can buy a streaming camera for a few 100 to a few k and be just fine if you are only streaming or putting video out for online viewing... Having HD and Image quality that rivals the film cameras Accu-Stats used prior to the change means big big bucks....
You can find 6 different versions of the new Tricaster out there... The TriCaster is what made the virtual AZ Desk for post match interviews possible... Green Screen technology at it's best..... Accu-Stats is the only streamer that has the top end Tricaster....
Pat and crew are definitely raising the bar... But they are also holding the line... Before Accu-Stats there were so many events lost to the ages... It was Pat's vision to record and store these events first from a statistical standpoint but also thankfully from a video standpoint.. The Accu-Stats library is and hopefully will continue to be one of the sports greatest assets...
Recording matches for posterity by anyone should be commended but when you are doing it at the level of sophistication and professionalism Pat's people bring to the table... You set the bar.... This is what makes and will continue to make Pat Fleming a Hall of Famer.....
bump. there were 1000 viewers on this stream
I try to send out a few emails to pool enthusiasts in my email contact directory when I know there is a good live stream pool production going on.
If you want to see pool grow, send out a notice to your email pals when something like this is taking place. it's good for everyone.
Thanks to AZBilliards, Upstate Al, Jerry F, Accu-States, and all the sponsors that put this great tournament on the stream for free to us. Also, thank you AZ Mike H for the great live scoring and brackets. Some of the best updating to a tournament I have saw online. Johnnyt
