I'm pullin' for Skyler now. Just so you know.
The are using Aramith Tournament Black balls, not Predator."they" are predator, providing both the tables and the balls. i'm not a fan of all their products, but they are putting money into the sport when few others do, so kudos to them. the tables on the WPM some week ago was much tighter
Are the quarterfinals on youtube? Hope so.
Thank you!Yes.
Now Oliver Szolnoki v Sanchez Ruiz
Was world pool masters 4" pockets?As usual, Jay, you are correct. Matchroom set the tables up too easy for a World Championship, and it has helped the chances of some of the less elite. How obvious is this? Check it out:
World Pool Masters (tight pockets)
The final four (Fargo in parentheses) were Kazakis (802) SVB (828) Filler (827) Kaci (815), with an average Fargo of 818. Now that's elite and the cream rose to the top.
World Championship (pockets loosened by 1/4")
Only two of the last eight have Fargo rates that put them among the best 35 players in the world and nobody is above 811.
Matchroom got burned a little with the equipment change.
Yes, WPM was 4".Was world pool masters 4" pockets?
Thanks for that. I was not comparing Filipino pool to Taiwanese pool. I was just taking note of the fact that the conditions this year in the last 16 might have favored the Filipinos, who are so good at beating you to the shot.Europeans, Filipinos, Taiwanese usually split up roughly equally about 70% to 90% of quarterfinalists or last 16 in international majors (W9B, USO,IO,CO,W10B,AJ). In terms of major titles won in last 5 years, Filipinos do not fare as well-most notable win is Biado winning this event in 2017. The most successful since 2016 are the Europeans who won almost half of the majors followed by the Taiwanese (excluding Wu)

Should be starting right now, if they stick to the schedule.What time is Sky's match, U.S time
Jinxed, to me anyway, implies something out of his control happened. No. He played like crap .I feel for Shane . He's jinxed in W9B
Hard to have 2 matches going on on the same tableShould be starting right now, if they stick to the schedule.
