Don't you think it's sad that in so many other sports, a youngster as talented as Landon would be getting ready to go pro, whether it be tennis, golf, NBA, NFL etc etc But with pool, he needs to forge another career with pool as a secondary thing. There's never gonna be another generation of...

cool at least he is using pool to save some college fees

USA now has to compete against countries in Asia which has Pool as a school sport and which have governments which sponsor young players to play fulltime I'm in Australia and cue sports are as ignored by mainstream as they are in the USA. Hardly anyone can make a living from cuesports here. In...

I saw his name mentioned here so i watched his match v Earl on youtube He is amazing for such a young player. Awesome break, great potter cool head So obviously he is one of the future stars of American Pool But will he want to go into Professional Pool fulltime ?

Whilst definitely skillful, one pocket and bank pool are novelty games Melling would be favourite against Alex in Snooker and Darren Appleton would be favourite against anyone on the planet in 9 or 10ball. Man you clutchin man really clutchin As others have mentioned, it wasn't about the...

I think Philippines v Team Europe would be razor close No way one team runs away with it Is Barry Hearn really open to messing with the 20 year tradition ? But he cant afford to have another year with the US team not having a chance. Although i guess there were many years when Europe didn't...

The bottom line The American team except for SVB are the stars of yesteryear, the European team are the stars of today The commentators kept going on about how every player on both team was a world champ etc For the european team, these titles have come this year or at the most in the past...

Has Earl ever been punched out in a tournament ? Surely it has happened at some point Wouldn't surprise me if Hatch has a row with Earl after this

Earl is embarasing and shaming himself, his father, his family, his team and his nation really hard to watch someone be that much of a twat

i think Barry Hearn is going to have to look at the event now No one wants to watch this trainwreck and trust me, it will be far from a satisfying win for europe

The Americans just don't want to be out there anymore sad to see

Earl is acting like a wally and it's not helping the team

Adding Team Asia to the mix also opens up a huge tv audience and sponsorship dollars

Remember USA only lost day 2, 3-2 so not too bad

I go to Asia a lot for work including China and boy when you see one of their snooker/pool halls it's quite a sight and the number of youngsters playing is amazing

Glad the USA won that last game Europe still need 3 more points so anything can happen

Pool like most sports at the elite level is a confidence thing Europe has it in spades USA are playing scared Could have been so different had USA got off to a better start Looks like no final day. They should tee up some money matches to televise on the final day

Remember Darren Appleton, Karl Boyes and Chris Melling came from the game of UK 8ball (as well as snooker) I know when Americans come over and see UK 8ball they think it's a Mickey Mouse game, small balls on a small table etc The balls are smaller, but the pockets are also way smaller and with...

Hi everyone 2 of my mates and myself hope to come out to Vegas later in the year for one of the big open events. We are from Australia. We aren't professionals or anything like that but we are all pretty decent cueists. We do mainly play snooker and english pool and some american pool. It is...

As a neutral Australian, it's quite disturbing to see how many of you yanks rag heavily on your team. Remember it was all level after 2 days ! One bad day and it's worst team this, chocker this Support your boys guys, if they go down, they go down
