Finland won the lag and ran out. Mika broke in the next game and scratched, so far it has cost them 2 games. The brother/sister team are playing great and breaking in the next game...

Cool! :cool: Thanks for the updates! :)
 
Jasmin missed a 50 yarder and left the 9 hanging. Finland broke dry, Albin made a tough 1 but got snookered.
Jasmin kicked and sold out. Finland in front, 3 games to 2. Another b&r for Finland, 4 games to 2 now...
 
Finland on the hill, 6 games to 2. That missed 9 by Jasmin was the turning point...
 
It's over, Finland over Austria, 7 games to 2.

Next match will be 16th seed Korea (Ryu Sueng Woo & Ham Won Sik) vs. Estonia...
 
race to 7, winner goes on. thats a tough international tournament format for a big prize fund.
 
For Tickets:

Estonia and Korea are tied at 1 game apiece. Lots of misses from both sides, the nerves are doing their part...

This match is turning into a comedy of errors, lots of misses. It's like nobody wants this match. Korea noses ahead, 2 games to 1...
 
Not even Jimmy Wych's outstanding commentary is enough to save Estonia vs Korea, a dull affair with substandard play by both.

Nonetheless, the stream quality is rock solid.

.... and I must add that use of the shot clock always makes pool much more enjoyable to watch.
 
Wonder whether the World Cup of Pool has ever been contested in the absence of the WPA's #1 ranked player.

On the other hand, Mr. Hohmann seems to have found profitable ventures elsewhere, winning the Maryland 14.1 championship yesterday.
