Tom Wirth currently live

Sadly it is blocked for copyright reasons. Is this due to trying to watch it from outside the US and can you still see it there? If you can, I might try to use a proxy.
it could be because the stream is not up yet
you could try this link later also

If it says "UMG" that's Universal Music Group - meaning it's probably about copyrighted jukebox music in the background.

Thanks a lot. The second link seems to work although the game has not started. The first link has the copyright issue.
Thank y'all for the links. GoldCrown's link worked in the end.
Due to time constraints I can't watch a lot and the stream did not cover the games I would have liked to see (Tom Wirth's games, for example).
Does somebody know if there is some current results table somewhere? I only found an older version of the bracket on onepocket.org (the cell phone pic of the handwritten bracket).

Tom played like a champ. He went to the Tourney knowing he's not in high performance mode but took a stand. I loved watching him play. I would have loved to see him at his peak. He pulls hats out of rabbits. He is now a dedicated instructor and producer of instructional materials. And nobody does it better. Has a lot to share. A legend and well respected player/person. He is someone everyone should know.

As a old friend from the hood it was great to see him playing live again lord knows how good of player he could have been if not for other things he had going on when he was in his prime , nevertheless a world class mind for the game and now shares it anyone picking up the game would do themselves good by buying his book and his videos

Did you watch him this weekend. I know for a fact he did not feel good going to CA but went anyway. He was definitely not 100%. He usually finds/creates a shot and runs out.
As for today and his sharing.... you know Tom. His heart and soul have OnePocket. As a trade mark his clothes should be custom tailored with 1Pocket. He has a few students that fly in for few days to take lessons. He loves to work with proficient 9ball players or anyone interested in seriously learning. Honestly I'm not a great player..would call myself a "C" but what Tom has taught me is enough to have fun and it's constantly getting better. I started from nowhere. I fluctuate but can go 8out sometimes. Being around him influences and promotes good pool. Just listening to him is a wonderful experience. You are fortunate to have seen him back then...and to be a friend of his. He's for real. As sincere as they come.

I noticed and watched most of the videos. I bought Tom's book and DVD although shipping to Europe adds substantially to the price. And it was worth every $. I feel like you, GC, not being such a great player myself. But it sure helps my game a lot to study his material. I wish I could make 1P more popular over here in Germany. Sadly, this game is about as popular as Poker Pool or Cutthroat over here. Meaning that all those 9-Ball players don't appreciate it at all. The only game besides 1P I really like is Straight Pool. Which isn't overly popular either but at least it gets played in leagues.
