    U.S. Open 9-ball Updates

    I would say this is the first year where it is close since back when the USA was the premier pool playing country by far (back in the 1980's) I still think the World 9-ball championships has a slightly tougher field. This US Open is extremely tough and a field like the event has not ever seen...

    The interesting thing about Karen Corr...

    So, how much has Ga Young Kim's Fargo rating go up during this US Open?

    U.S. Open 9-ball Updates

    These guys are both shooting way over .900 TPA atm, this is the strongest showing by two opponents we have seen yet on the TV table. Very strong play.

    Congratulations to Albin Ouschan He makes Team Europe Mosconi Cup

    I think like Mark Wilson said above that you should reward the active players who are out there competing on a regular basis. Not only because they are "earning" it but also because that regular competition is what helps battle harden these players to actually be able to compete in an event with...

    What happened to the automatic extension?

    The extension is supposed to be automatic and has been for the entire event so far. He supposedly burned through his extension already and did not have any more extensions when time ran out, and did not hear his warning due to the earplugs. I would love to see it again though to make sure.

    What happened to the automatic extension?

    It turns out Uchigaki went into his automatic extension as he was supposed to, burned through it as well, and could not hear the ref warn him at 10 seconds he was about to have a time clock violation because he had earplugs in his ears (from what was said). So he had a foul called and Ko got...

    Congratulations to Albin Ouschan He makes Team Europe Mosconi Cup

    Sky Woodward took out Yu Lung Chang on the A-Side of the US Open this year, it was not too long ago that Yu Lung Chang was the number 1 ranked player in the world. Sky I think would be a phenomenal teammate and Sky and Bergman would be an awesome combo to send out into double battle as they...

    They spun over to the Corr match now that the TV table is done, thanks Accustats! Welp, that was 15 seconds.... Now we are watching SVB and Bergman warm up instead. WTF?

    Jay Helfert resigned as Tourney Director at the US Open

    Wow, what a Barryism just got shot out at Roberta when she was talking on the mic... Classy to the end...

    It worked, he got Little Ko off his rhythm and got a scratch on the break out of it. Awesome win....

    U.S. Open 9-ball Updates

    Ivaca is being a gigantic goof with his rack analyzing. The guy was over Ko's rack looking at every single little contact for about a minute before he found a tiny gap to ***** about.

    Jay Helfert resigned as Tourney Director at the US Open

    Yep, or the BCA Hall of Fame page. http://bca-pool.com/general/custom.asp?page=30 Allen there as well. Are you sure "you" are spelling it right Fran?

    Jay Helfert resigned as Tourney Director at the US Open

    You are comparing a player who paid $1000 to enter the tournament to a tournament director who is PAID to run the event in a fair and effective fashion? Seriously?

    Jay Helfert resigned as Tourney Director at the US Open

    Nah, at the end of the day.. he played. The true principled stance in this is Allen going right up to Barry and saying "look, the draw is done, Jay is correct and it is wrong to change the draw at this point. I appreciate the offer Barry but I would not feel right about taking a spot now, I am...

    accu-stats BUZZING

    I agree, it sounds like a threshold for the mics or something. On rare occasion it has disappeared or at least been less loud. It seems to actually get louder when Mark talks, so I think it is probably something to do with his mic.

    What A Joke 6 Days For 128 players

    We already miss heaps of great matches because of only having a single PPV stream table. With 16 tables we would simply miss that many more of the good early matchups. They need to switch to the same setup the World 9-ball Championships has where you can watch whatever match you want as they...

    Jay Helfert resigned as Tourney Director at the US Open

    Jay did not quit as the tournament director. He never "was" the tournament director if he lacked the authority to make this call. He was a figure head and Barry showed that pretty clearly when he put his foot down and told Jay how it was going to be. Jay did not really have any choices to make...

    US Open PPV schedule<<<<<<<

    Little Ko vs Corey would be awesome. Nick vs Oscar should be a great battle. Alex vs Alex is going to be a good one. SVB vs Gomez is not actually a great match. Roberto does not shoot like he used to and SVB will likely win fairly comfortably. If we miss Little Ko vs Corey or Nick Eko vs Oscar...
