FYI - my stream didn't go out. It was good right to the end. Sorry yours crapped out.

My only real complaint was that they streamed Appleton playing a 550 Fargo on the TV table. I get that the matches are a blind draw, but I can watch 500+ players in my league for free. They should have swapped matches or something...

Who won the match, the tall guy?

I would assume that CSI got a piece of the advertisers revenue, or got some from sponsors for the stream at the world. OR, they ate the cost of providing the stream just to get their name out there and to get as many people as possible to visit their youtube page.

Maybe with the smaller field and tourney, there is no advertiser money or the amount of traffic to their site isn't expected to be as large...

either way, I am sure it costs plenty for these guys to live stream a tourney...got to make their nut somehow...

Recent World 10 Ball has Predator as main partner/sponsor which can cover streaming costs
Maybe it is expensive cos CSI has big media team with 2 to 3 commentators. Manpower is expensive.
Camera/video/ hardware on other hand is cheaper. It is not extremely expensive to just stream videos with minimum frills.
Compare that to what Kozoom did at World 9 ball some years ago- they had high quality videos on almost all tables- no commentators (except for final few matches on TV table) and it was free.

So yes, it is shocking state of pool industry that the big tournaments are free streams but the small /regional tournaments are paid streams.
How do you bring in new mega mainstream viewers if it is PPV and not free?.

I paid for the stream yesterday.
It was the final match, hill-hill, between Sky Woodward and the tall guy from New Zealand.
Final ball, tall guy is getting ready to shoot it for the $$...and the stream goes out.
That kind of thing just burns me up.
Listen up CSI....I want a freebie tonight to make up for that.

The ‘tall guy’ is Marco Teutscher....he won the match.
He’s living in New Zealand but he’s Dutch....one hell of a player...
...the great Wu is one of the scalps hanging on his belt

Double J is the best commentator I ever heard in the last 20 years.
Don't let Danny DiLiberto or Jay Helfert NEAR a microphone and it will all be jake.
You got something good working with Jones....ride that horse! :thumbup:
 
Great commentary

Thank you, CSI, for great resolution and, most of all, Jeremy Jones.
He is a pleasure to listen to !!

Can't take the heat of criticism about your lame performances, little man?
Then stay out of paid STREAMS where you do not belong.
By the way, right back at you............this is for U.

You paid for this thread?
 
quantifying the best commentator is subjective at best

Jay and Jeremy are two of the best, they both add value

Jimmy, on the other hand.....
 
Dennis in the hotseat.

Jeff DeLuna vs Toasty.

Winner plays Marco Teut. to advance to the finals.
 
How many people purchased the stream? Can’t be many I imagine. I was thinking of it but price is way too high by around double what I expected
 
New Zealand is 6-4 ahead of Dennis.
...although I still suspect that Robo’s gonna take it down.
Dennis was running out like water in the A-side final

Hohmann and de Luna made more mistakes in their last four match than Dennis made
all tournament....so Marco belongs in the finals.
