Matchroom Premier League Pool (PLP) (14-21 Feb2022), nineball, 9ft, Winner $20K

it's not wokeness, atleast not according to my understanding. it's rather part of MR:s efforts to appeal to a wider audience, battle of the sexes and all that. it does generate talk, and viewers, maybe not for this (rather obscure) event but for other events.
i think you just described 'woke'. to me its like when the pga tour let annika s. play. publicity stunt. nothing else.

no, woke bs is politically motivated or implemented because of a fear of not being "inclusive". MR are motivated by profit. the old battle of the sexes trope is speculative, not woke. when they aired jasmin vs de luna in the US open they got great numbers, according to emily. i'm not a big fan of it, unless it's by pure merit, but they're not trying to reach us purists, cuz we're already in the fold.
 
Not Shaw....

You don't think Shaw has a different style of play than most other Euros and Asians? I think he is noticeably different in his stroke, stance and game approach, how he plays the shots, the paths he takes for position. He is fairly unique in his game style. Even Filler who shoots as straight does not power the hard shots with 4-5 rail shape like Shaw. His table presence reminds me of Strickland in his prime, where he will just power through you despite your best efforts or any lead you may have had LOL
 
“Woke” apparently is a synonym for “anything a person doesn’t like”.

Stream is looking great on YouTube!
 
That's what I meant NOT him....

Ah then you misread what I wrote, I said " Outside of a few guys like SVB and Shaw, a few other American players and Philippines, everyone looks like... "

So it looked like you thought Shaw played with the same style as the other pool school graduates.

How about 'LAME' then?? That better?? I felt same way about J.Trump in US Open. Publicity/woke/touchy-feely stunt. Pick you terms. Its all lame to me.
 
WInner of MR first ranking event DCC 9 ball, FSR in meltdown mode.
Hill hill against Kelly Fisher, he hooked himself on 3. Then shockingly missed kick on the 3 giving BIH to Fisher to run out and win.

FSR still 0 wins out of 3. Top 10 out of 16 players qualify for Stage 2. Plugging some numbers from the air, I am guessing roughly need at least 10 points (10 wins) out of 15 matches to be safe and qualify for stage 2. Which means he needs to win 10 out of 12 matches and he has to yet play most of the big names.
Max Lechner could be looking at early exit having lost all 4 of his matches. He has one more last match end of session. Other players playing 2 to 3 matches on Day 1 but he is playing 5

Strange that I don't see this match on the live score site. They still have Fisher with 1 loss in 1 game. Am I doing something wrong?

You are not doing anything wrong. The live score site has not updated Fisher v FSR match
Table standings should show FSR 0 wins out of 3 not 2 and Fisher should show played 2 win 1 :LOL:

Looks like I can't watch past matches on Dazn? It looks like Day 1 is already removed.

Looks like no replay coverage in the US. Despite my low expectations, I'm always amazed at the third rate attempts at professional pool. So much for "nineball".
 
I hope no replay for day 1 is a technical glitch. If it turns out intentional, my level of disappointment will skyrocket.

I started a chat on the DAZN customer support and they told me they can't confirm but they believe the events are live only.
