US Open stream...............

[Nostroke]

Borrowing the Green Jacket thing from the Masters was a bad Behrman move. MR should change it to Blue or something. It just aint right.

 

[CallShotCowboy]

What an a-hole move by Kaci. Anyone caught what he did with the template rack just now?

I didn't - what happened?

 

[AtLarge]

Did Shaw put an 8 pack on Corey earlier?

No. A 4-pack and two 2-packs. 8 B&R's in total. Yesterday.

 

[AtLarge]

I didn't - what happened?

Nothing much. He just tossed the template to the foot rail and it went to the floor.

Cuescore website is down, so they put up a Facebook live video of a screenshot of their scores lol.

Haha, who posted the video? I don't see it on the US Open page

I really enjoy the stream and the commentary, but I miss Alex Lely.

I wonder if the commentators in the TV stages will be the same as on the facebook stream.

It's on Cuescore's FB page.

Yup, Alex has joined the ranks of the elite in pool commentary and is far better than any of those doing it for Facebook.

But to be fair, we criticize them at a high level.

What I like is the constant action Matchroom delivers with this production.
You always get the infos from the side tables, some quick interviews between the racks, a short glimpse at some pros in the audience, a story here and there...that is very nice and entertaining.
Ok, we as pool playing fans would love to get some deeper insight into how the pros play certain shots or how they plan their patterns, but in terms of making pool more popular for TV audiences, this is how you do it.

And no updates about what they had for dinner. The PPV streamers could take a hint on that one...

Sucks it is showing the next table 1 match is Shaw vs Petri.

Sucks it is showing the next table 1 match is Shaw vs Petri.

Makkonen beat Shaw at Turning Stone in January, so you never know.

 

[Bic D]

Am I reading the bracket correctly that if SVB and Shaw keep winning, they will meet in the final?

All the blank numbers started getting confusing.

 

[spartan]

Too bad Chen Siming is out

OUT
Kazakis
Darren Appleton
Kaci
Orcollo
Chang Jung Lin
Corey Deuel
David Alcaide

Down to last 32
16 on winners side and 16 on losers side

 

[spartan]

Aranas down 2-8 then wins next 8 racks to get on hill 10-8
But Thorsten back at table

 

[spartan]

Wow, Aranas missed 7
Thorsten back at table to run out for hill hill 10-10

I think that's right. They were number 1 and 2 seeds in the tournament.

 

[spartan]

They cannot decide which match for next match TV table

Shaw v Petri or Hatch SVB

 

[BRussell]

I think they're assuming Shaw's match will be over in 50 min. and they can show both like last night.
