Matchroom Predator Championship League Pool

Kelly beat Niels, Ralf and is leading Kaci 3-2 right now. It’s great pool.

I hear both DAZN and Matchroom Live Have had their share of video feed issues. I wish DAZN wasn’t the table 1 option. If they had a full calendar of pool, I’d pay for the year. But right now only the Mosconi Cup is worth doing a single month subscription to me.
 
I bought the year subscription for DAZN, because of Matchroom’s full slate of events and the fact that the year for $100 is equal to 5 months of the $20 monthly subscription.
Unfortunately it’s been a complete disaster. I can only watch for a few minutes and I get a service interrupted message. All of my video watching is via the internet and I rarely have any problems with YouTube, Netflix, Disney+, etc. I’m thinking of cancelling and trying to get my money back.

Do we know if the remainder of Matrchroom's pool events this year will all be on DAZN?

If so we’d be looking at $100 for 6 events. So that’s maybe $17 per event. I guess that’s not so bad.

Kaci got her hill-hill. So now Melling, Kaci, Fisher, and Ouschan are at 2-1.

Robinson isn’t having a fun day at 0-3 so far
 
Streaming on matchroom.live has been hit or miss today, just like the snooker events earlier in the year. I have to reload (or go back to the main page) after each set.
 
I have both DAZN and matchroom.live. Right now I'm watching the snooker on DAZN since it's O'Sullivan vs. Higgins. I have had some flakiness from both but right now both are fine for me.
 
I gave in and bought DAZN. Since I did, it’s been rock solid (heard it wasn’t earlier). But Matchroom Live has had major hitches all day. Maybe I’d say the last 60 minutes have been the most stable of the day.
 
I'm watching on matchroom there's table 1 and table 2, but not only that but also there's a snooker live game between ronnie o'sullivan vs higgins. So I really don't know what to watch, Matchroom got this nice feature to put all 3 screens together but then it will be kind of small :)
 
So Chris Melling got into one of the semifinal matches by accruing the 4th best record of the day. Then he beat Kaci and Ouschan to win Day 1. Now he doesn't play again until a week from today.
 
i like that tournament structure. The eventual winner will have to thread a grueling series of matches against the some of the best players in the world.

Melling won 5 out of 8 matches, beating Kaci and Oushan.

I wouldn't be surprised if Kaci, Oushan, Feijen, Appleton all win leagues, and all meet again in the final.

A great match-up.

I like this a lot better than your routine race to 11 or 13.

Yes that doesn't make sense right? or does it, I'm confused what you're trying to say :D
 
It does make sense.

The six players have a round robin.

The top four players in each league have a semi-final and final to determine the league winner. Melling was fourth in his league round robin, but won the semi-final and final.

Players who win a league move to the winners league. So Melling won league 1 and moves to the winners league. He waits until all the other 5 leagues are over, then the six league winners have their own round robin.

The person who comes in 6th in each league is eliminated.

Players who come in 2nd through 5th move into the next league (2 in this case.), and are joined by two new players (Fortunski and Alcaide). they will play off today, and that winner moves to the winners league, and 2nd through 5th move to league 3 joining two new players.

After all 6 leagues have their winners, the winners league plays a round robin, together with a semi-final and final. There will be an overall winner.

There's money for people who place in each league, and money for the people who place in the winners league.

Overall though, it means a tough tournament every day.

The overall winner will have won against the top players more than once.

Does this mean the people in group 1 have an advantage? They get more chances to try to be the winner of a group. Where the people added later have less chances?

When the winners league plays, they'll do the same round robin again, together with a semi-final and final. There will be an overall winner.

So to you, it made sense that the guy who came 4th out of 6 players in a round-robin, then played semis and finals and won. Interesting... to me I would think the guy who came #1 in the round-robin deserves to win it all.

The winner of yesterday was not even in the mid-pack of the round-robin, he came 4 out of 6, which means only two guys after him, then he won it. Well for me it doesn't make sense except if the game is flawed, but it is 9ball a race to 5, so with that in mind, I know these things can happen.
