[gxman]

I'm out right here 35%, for Ko its 90%.

 

[PoolBum]

Ko wins 11-10. He was incredibly lucky to get away with missing that very easy 3-ball but hooking Alex.

[gxman]

Ko vs Wu in semi's.

 

[Kris_b1104]

Ko wins 11-10. He was incredibly lucky to get away with missing that very easy 3-ball but hooking Alex.

Sounds like last year's W9B finals...

Incredible comeback by Ko after Alex broke him twice then he broke back to even it but at key moment Alex broke him again to go on hill 10-8
Then stream went down. Geez only wish someone like genipool have full match and upload it on youtube
This is one of best matches of the knockout stages
Ko has nerves of steel like Chang Yu Lung

So we have a mouthwatering semifinal rematch tomorrow Big Ko v Big Wu which is a rematch of last years awesome W9B semifinal

 

[big_worm]

let's hope big ko and big wu serve up a great semi.

Are the two Wu's related?

Not in this match he didn't. He missed two easy balls in the latter racks and had to get very lucky not to leave Alex a shot.

Sounds like last year's W9B finals...

the last rack of the 2015 w9b finals was about Shane's kick on the 2 which pretty much concluded the match.

 

[benny-the-blade]

Not in this match he didn't. He missed two easy balls in the latter racks and had to get very lucky not to leave Alex a shot.

And he dogged the 9 in the first game of the match.

Well, good for Big Ko....
...I was cheering for Alex...
...but I met Big and Lil Ko at the DCC...they're good kids...
....and the game needs a thousand of them.

[big_worm]

Are the two Wu's related?

no, they're not.
and the two chang's aren't related, either.

both wu and chang are common Chinese family names.

I would too. From what I've seen, Wu Chia-Ching is playing the best of anyone right now.
