SVB v. Fedor Gorst

[tableroll]

Fred's a helluva player.

Bet Fred could beat Fedor!

the promoters want to make money and if its called exhibition the viewing rights go out the window.
on it and the others.

"viewing rights"? It appears to be just a free stream,

"viewing rights"? It appears to be just a free stream,

Railbirds is a monetized channel on YouTube. They own their content and make money per view.

Does that mean that they don't try as hard as they can in tournaments because they might only have $1,000 invested while playing for $30K to win and don't have enough vested interest to bring their A game ???

Gee, I don't know. How hard do you play for your money?

How does anyone even think they are putting up their own money or gambling? This was announced from the start as a series of matches put on a by a promoter with the winner staying for the next match and the loser packing.

This is like the very last matches of TAR, where we saw Busty, Archer, Shane, and I forget if anyone else, where Justin put up all the money and made the match his terms.

That said, I don't think that will make the slightest difference in how these two guys play this match.

SVB and Fedor should spend more time practising for the Mosconi.

Nobody cares about a race to 50.

We care about the Mosconi

Speak for yourself. To many the Mosconi Cup is a carnival side show.

I like SVB here. Lately I think Fedor’s focus has been on using his name to sell pool products instead of on the practice table because he hasn’t been having the tournament results we’ve come to expect from him.
