2014 World 9-Ball Championship

Another big swing in this match. Haya has an easy position from the 8 to the 9 to tie it at 7 a piece, but he overstroked it and missed position and missed the 9 in the side. Neils buried a tough shot on the 9 to go up 8-6.
 
Chang mounting a comeback
Stole a rack on Ouschan break so now behind 6-9 Chang is breaking
 
Niels broke and made a ball, not the easiest rack but do-able.
After the 1 and 2 the rack is now wide open.
Niels runs out for 6-9 Haya breaking.

I wish you were right. Maybe you can give those "plenty" a road map and circle Ft. Worth Texas.....I'll play them for $100 a game until their arm falls off at Rusty's Billiards. There's lots of action here in Texas, I haven't seen it this good since the 80s.

I don't speak for anyone that might play you, though as i recall, bartrum- who by his own admission is not a top-level pro- was up for a tussle. I think you were asked to add a couple zeros though (on the left of the decimal point).

Hell, even though you WERE a champ, I AM a champ. I will play you some for 4$ a game, if you travel to me.:rolleyes: post up for 3 games
 
Chang felt off position after potting 3 and made a great recovering banging 4 into corner
Now Chang behind 7-9 and Ouschan breaking
 
Niels has been complaining about the rack a lot, suprised the ref hasn't changed the MBR.
2 balls down for Niels but no shot on the 1.

Niels pushes, Haya gives it back. Niels leaves a long straight 1 which Haya misses by half
a diamond and scratches, Niels should be out, but not super easy. Niels runs out for 7-10 Niels on the hill.

Euuuuuroooope... Euuuuuroooope...
 
One of the most interesting things about this tournament is the intense pressure and how players hold up or don't. Before Haya missed the one I noticed his back arm literally shaking. Don't see stuff like that very often at most pro tournaments.
 
Haya sold out on the 2, after 2 great shots Niels can run out...
BOOOM! Great runout to seal the match 7-11! All Europe final
against Ouschan.

Ouschan is certainly a great player but if one could choose 10 or even 20
players you do not want to play in the final of the WC I do not think Albin would make the list.

Chang is out. Ouschan is in final He missed an easy pot and gave table to Ouschan to run out 11-7
Well done Ouschan :thumbup:
 
Chang did not look nearly as confident today as he did yesterday.

No, the way he played today even the real Tom Cruise (not his character in Color of Money) can beat him LOL. No form today
He missed at least 4 makeable balls which gave 4 racks for Oushan
 
The production quality of this event is absolutely brilliant.

The camera angles, instant replays, slow motion highlights, video recaps at the end of each game and now add commentary, makes this production hard to beat. :cool::thumbup::cool:

Hats off to Kazoom for bringing this world championship to us live and doing it for free makes it even more impressive. :smile:

Thanks Kazoom and all of the sponsors.

Good luck and congrats to the 2 Euro finalists, Ouchan & Feijen.

best,
