Bob thx appreciate this.
So it's no longer 256.
Yep, his person' kinda reminds me of Mike Dechaine.
Last year was 128. I don't think the 9-ball World Championship has ever been 256.
It appears that for people in the US, it will be on wnttv.com. That requires something like a $10 membership.
It’s Skyler’s wedding. Takes place three days after the WPC ends. He and his longtime partner are making it official. Scheduled before the date of the WPC was known.
Glad to see that there are no morning matches Jeddah time. The first matches are at 1:00 PM there and the last round starts at 10:30 PM. That is 6:00 AM and 3:30 PM New York time and I am comfortable with that.
This schedule is fan-friendly for most who will watch on stream (OK, it doesn't quite work for those in California, where the matches will start at 3:00 AM).

First round, Sam "Ryno" Henderson v. Fedor Gorst. With only 8 Americans in the mix, that's unfortunate, but what's worse is 18-year-old Sam is facing last year's World Champion. What a draw for Sam!
I read this on Facebook. When Fedor was asked about what he thought of Young Gun Sam, he replied, "You're a good young player, and you're traveling and consistent. And if you continue at this rate, you'll definitely be a top contender." That was very gracious of Fedor.
On a funny note, Alex Pagulayan, Shane Van Boening, Fedor Gorst, and some others were sharing a ride in a van, going somewhere, yesterday. Alex asked Fedor if there was going to be a Round 3 with Shane. Before Fedor could get an answer out, Shane bellowed out a saucy reply and then giggled. The entire van cracked up laughing, including Fedor. Leave is to Alex to add a little levity. All's fair in love and pool, I guess.
Not sure if you can see this Facebook reel by Alex, but here it is: https://www.facebook.com/reel/1645377010182348

JJ, Karl and Scott with Emily for the stream intro.
$10k for the largest break-and-run.
A brief travelog now.
I'm guessing the action will start shortly after the hour.

They stepped up the female announcer game, no more lady dressed like it is a 60's Halloween party.
