Hoang leaves himself on the 50 yard line on the 9ball to make the score 2-3. He misses it and leaves a semi-tough 9ball for the Berginator. The Berger King knocks it down to get on the hill. 4-1 to the Iceberg.
Hoang composes himself in the next rack and adds another game to make it 2-4.
The Berg Khalifa to break in the next rack.
My bad, it was Hoang's break, not the Bergamot.

a cinematic finish from the great director bergman etc
overall it's been seriously impressive from someone that's been out of the loop in pro pool for that long
leading yapp 4-1
Bergman should have beaten Yapp 5-0. Came up inexplicably short on position for the 7 and failed to run out as he should have.
Still won 5-2 and was very impressive.
Bergman is up to 7th place and is even in racks won and lost. He should have beaten Melling and Souto too.
Had Bergman been up to speed on 9 ball, he probably would have been near the very top. Very impressive.
I think his safety play is as good, if not better, than any other top American player. Seems at least as good as SVB or Gorst.
I do wonder how his stamina will hold up as the event moves on.

I would even say he is better than Skyler too.
I don't think that will be an issue for him, he is used to playing very long one-pocket sets/matches.
don't think stamina is an issue. the break was always the issue. but the new break rules seem to be a hand in glove fit. i guess we'll see but i would be surprised if he didn't go to stage 2
Bergman is singlehandedly revitalizing my hope for Team USA.
and making this usually boring event interesting
Bergman was, by a mile, America’s best defensive player at 9ball when he competed regularly. Skyler was probably second best back then at defense. If Justin is still showing those refined skills, that is great to hear. He was also a rock solid kicker back in the day.
I have often noted what a shame it was that Justin sat out the first four years of the WNT, which has a) made defensive play and kicking more important than they ever have been, and b) made the break so difficult that the advantage enjoyed by the best breakers is less than in the past.
Seriously. Especially in his home state.
I have never viewed Jesus as elite. He produces flashes of brilliance and is a threat to beat almost anyone, but, to me, he is a poster boy for inconsistency.
