2026 WPA Predator Men's World 10 Ball Saigon

[Lowell]

Excellent comeback from Kaci. And gutsy move to take on the jump shot from the pushout, it paid off.

 

[Lowell]

If you are talking about Shi Tianqi, then she is sponsored by Zen cues

Ah so they don't seem to make anything bigger than 12.7 according to the website, unless they custom made a far ass 13mm + shaft for her.

Do you really think that you can tell the difference between 12.7 and 13 on a stream?
To me, they all look thicker on the stream, the 11.8 looks like 12.5

But maybe it is 13mm
You know that if you are world number one, you get special treatment

 

[Lowell]

Tianqi Shi is playing great with that fat ass cue.

And she is kicking very well.

 

[Monti]

If so, the decision to include him is likely already made. I still do not feel his performance at the World 10ball will be taken into account.

Agreed

The taper makes a big difference in appearance , it's really hard to tell MM at tip.

 

[skogstokig]

yea pia is in trouble here. estimated fargo for shi tanqi?

 

[easy-e]

Idk man. If Ultimate Pool went away, I don't think we'd ever see a 600+ player ever play 8 ball again, unless there was some special tournament with a lot of added money.

Edit to add, 8 ball was never played before the IPT by good players, and never played after it.... except for Darren's 1 year tour about 10 years ago, and now the Ultimate Pool tour.

Our experiences differ. I think it's far more popular than you give it credit for.

 

[Lowell]

Haha I jinxed it, that was an inexcusable miss from Shi

trying to show off, or not having respect for the game/table..

 

[Lowell]

Shi started out so strong then has been playing sloppy

Yeah like it might not be a Heyball table but it isn't a Valley either

 

[Lowell]

Piss poor table discipline by Shi. She basically gave the set away.

7 times world snooker champion Stephen Hendry considers all pool games (UK pool, 9b, Heyball) to be “Mickey Mouse” games. He says it repeatedly on his popular YouTube channel.

Yes but Steve Davis only 6 I think. Disagrees

 

[Monti]

anyway, pia won. i have always underestimated pia and kristina. i never thought they could contend with the top asians. pia was in the mid-600 range for a long time, and kristina looked like she would never develop a good break (because her physics / leverage). the last couple of years they have both proved me wrong.

Training daily with 2 of the best men in the world has got to help.

That missed 8 ball up 3-0 in set 1 was a bizarre shot.

iirc it was davis that called english 8b mickey mouse because of the cb being smaller than the object balls. (which is wonky in this time and age)

 

[Lowell]

Shi is a great kicker yet seems to have a weak safety game. I'm not sure if she played one lockup safety the whole match so far.

 

[skip100]

Nervy moment for Filler going down to 1 second on the shot clock on the 7, but she pulls off the win.

 

[skip100]

Josh Filler is smiling while she is crying!
