I think in the final they will be 100% out of freerolling mode and therefore more nervous than they have been so far. I make them the favourites but they will have tough opponents and won't be guaranteed to get wet break after wet break again.Amazing performance. Whitewash 9-0 Appleton/Boyes over Slovakia and they are through to final
They are hands down the favorite to win the title now.

Appletons background in blackball serves him well. It's a no-nonsense game for no-nonsense players. It teaches shot selection, discipline and keeping things simple. Darrens patterns in all games are exemplary. Boyes is, and IMO always has been underrated, especially on Azb, but even I am surprised by his rock solid performance after such a long time off.
I think whomever gets to face Appleton/Boyes will need both consistency and firepower to win. They've got so much experience and they're performing extremely well, right now. I'd be really surprised if they broke down in the final. I consider them heavy favourites against the remaining teams, but of course nothing is certain.

If they had two Fillers maybe
. UK vs Germany would be a great match.

lol his partner didn't seem to jump around as much.
just waiting to see the price on germany
missed the second semi. was it well played?
I didn't see the beginning when Estonia was up 7-2, but Germany played great to comeback and win.
Darren has recently been playing English pool and not been playing great by any stretch of the imagination. He was well ropey in the last tournament he played in and withdrew from the next one. I think he and Karl have just geĺled and played well and rode that funny old thing called luck. And played really well......
what time EST is the final being played?

What I mean was that the way he plays US pool is clearly influenced by how UK pool is played, as far as patterns etc. It takes time to transition between the two styles of game, the equipment is so different. But Darren has been a top player in both and he could be again if he put the time in. It's just hard to do both at the same time.
Thank you
Boyes/Appleton will likely be overpriced/valued on English betting sites, so Germany may be a decent value as a bet. I sometimes will make bets, even against my own beliefs, if I think it's good value.
Edit: Checked out one site and their nearly even money with the English team marginally favoured. 1.8 vs 1.9. Nah, I may put down some small change on England after all.
yeah the site i use had germany +105. Not the best, but I still like it.
darren shot that 5-ball three times as hard as was needed
karl misses the first ball in two matches, germany up 5 - 2
Crazy they are still having shot clock issues. Filler might have fired Daz up now
