Can't argue that Earl has been an embarrassment just about everywhere he goes. The last straw was his final match during the World straight pool championships. Why would any sponsor want to be associated with that kind of disruptive, unprofessional and disrespectful behavior?

what did he do? I'm out of the loop.

I understand he burns all of his bridges, but I hope he lands on his feet
 
1st day upsets (1 loss)
Darren
Dechaine
Oscar

Free Stream quality excellent- puts some of those PPV to shame
No big matches on steam yet :grin:
 
I just checked the brackets and noticed that Oscar D and Darren A both lost in the first round. Notable upsets for sure.
 
Interesting match, IMO, with Rob Saez and Sylvain Grenier.....
...many would not know Grenier's history....
...in 1995, he made it to the final of the Canadian Junior 9-ball Championship....
...only to lose to the only kid in Canada who could've beaten him...a sixteen year old
Alex Pagulayan.
Grenier disappeared from the game for over a decade to raise a family....
....but this fine player is back...

This should be a good match
 
Grenier wins over Saez 9-5.
He's my dark horse for it all....
...he has fire power....and fire

Sylvain is such a great guy and great player!

I play every day at his academy, Sylvain has become a good friend in the last 2 months and his pool academy is nothing short of awesome!

Pool has been getting a lot of attention here since he opened it, records broken already for junior tournaments attendance and others. Playing pool there amounts to a few dollars per day if you get get a monthly subscription to the place. Free for the family to come play with you too! Even his lessons are very affordable!

I was very excited to see him play today!

I truly love this tournament. Mr. Zuglan never disappoints. Always a great event with 9 ball as it should be played;
Winner breaks, 9 counts on the break, the balls racked with the 1 on the spot with an actual rack, no jump cues. Ahhhhhhhhhh

9's should never count on the break as it is a cheap way to win. Also using regular racks is what leads to so many of the racking disputes as no two racks do the job exactly the same which is why template racks are so superior.

I like that it's kind of a throwback as well. I also like that it's the only big tournament I can think of that is rack for each other.

Yeah they have allowed rack your own in the past if both players agreed but they nixed that in the players meeting this year and your opponent must rack for you.
 
Justin played a great match but let's face it, he dodged a bullet when Toasty just flat dogged that ball, like pennies from heaven

Toastie messed up the 2 to the 3...overhit the 2...now the 3 was awkward and he hit
the 9....giving him a thin cut with outside english....no hanger when you're controlling
whitey also.....I'd like a dollar for every one I've missed....center ball or inside is easier.
