I hope so because he deserves it. However, there are still many strong players.

dang than kien impressed in beating lil ko. played faster than i remember too. i was thinking as lil ko got up from his seat to get out of the line of sight, he's such a good sport, never heard a bad word about him
Yes, nice of lil Ko to concede to a upcoming player with smiles and hugs.
Anybody esle noticing that Biado, the Ko clan, and most of these guys are using wood shafts?
Carbon fiber shafts are cheap in Asian, but the players seem to prefer wood.
Wonder why.

It's what they grew up with?Anybody esle noticing that Biado, the Ko clan, and most of these guys are using wood shafts?

i don't know to tell the age of taiwanese people but all players i've seen except 2 or 3 play with wood.. same thing in mainland china it seems, although they play heyball
Probably because their sponsors are not forcing or pressuring them to use CF for marketing gain. Or maybe they are but the players said NO!Anybody esle noticing that Biado, the Ko clan, and most of these guys are using wood shafts?

I know the Ko's parents own(ed) a pool hall and they've all been playing since they were knee high to a grasshopper.
They play with Zen cues I think(not sure they make a carbon shaft)
Apparently Cuetec isn't cutting those SVB checks for everyone.
Maybe they prefer to play without gloves and wood slides better on bare hand???Anybody esle noticing that Biado, the Ko clan, and most of these guys are using wood shafts?

yes, they both won world championships with southwests, and changed to zen later (with solid maple shafts). i thought at first it was a weird sponsor because they are quite expensive cues, but maybe i was wrong, they seem to sell well
Random but I was today years old when I learned Roberto Gomez was one 9ball away from winning the 2007 World Pool Championship against Daryl Peach...
It popped up on my YouTube feed. I didn't even know he's been playing that long.

it was an incredible moment at the time, both daryl peach fading the hostile crowd and gomez choking, and the prize money. it was the highest ever for world 9b championship, 100k, and daryl got kind of ripped off by a manager he (for some reason) hired after the win. that was a weird story in itself.
that match definitely dented gomez mentally.. he's won smaller events since but nothing big that i can remember
yea i don't trust fargo numbers with these pinoy players. just watched aivan maluto take out wu kun lin 11-8. stone cold killer. did the same to wiktor yesterday
other guy, nalaunan, won his match too, beating naoyuki oi 11-5
nalaunan has made some crazy kicks against FSR.. leading 10-8 now
10-9
10-9
