What annoys me most is that the broadcast is only on par with every other tournament that is streamed live from a pool hall like CSI does or our recent German Tour event. I wish broadcast quality was up to Matchroom standards. Seems like Qatar ran out of money when it came to streaming...

Final now Nick v.d. Berg vs Roman Hybler 8-Ball race to 7

Oliver Ortmann just ran a 6-pack to advance to the last 32. Efren was tired last evening with the tournament going until midnight and a 1P challenge afterwards. Let's see

Efren plays tomorrow at 6pm CET, but at a different venue. Keep browing sportdeutschland.tv and look for "German Tour" and "K60" I don't know if they have a livestream from that other venue, if not keep watching our top German players flying under the radar! Just got home from todays preliminary...

We didn't have anything like that in 20 years! Bustamante and Reyes are here and did a roadshow the past week and a half. Bustamante played strong today and won all of his matches. Reyes only starts tomorrow, but had "Action" today winning 8:7 in 9-Ball against Tobias Hoiß for an undisclosed...

The link to Efren's crazy 10-ball is already on the forum. Reyes and Bustamante are currently on a road show in Germany prior to this big tournament. Bustamante will start tournament action on Thursday 6pm CET, Reyes will play on Friday 6pm CET

Hey guys, I doubt it gets much love in the European Tournament section, so I thought I post it here. The "German Tour" final event is only a few weeks away and what a great tournament it is Held over 5 days near Frankfurt it features 312 of Germany's best players - and not only Germans. Since...

Private Club 25 Euros monthly membership fee including a key, so it's basically 24/7... Just replaced our old no-name tables (said to be Hungarian made) with 5 Gabriels Signature tables. Covered with 860 Tournament Blue and Aramith Pro-Cup TV balls. Club is located near Frankfurt, Germany. Most...

I don't know about Munich itself, but Dachau is just on the outskirts of it Triple B http://www.triple-b-dachau.de/ It's the home of the German Premier League team BSV Dachau, so you can expect perfect table conditions and might bump into a skilled player or two. There are train connections from...

In my area in Germany it varies between 5 and 10 Euros depending on the city and the time of day. But there aren't many great pool halls around, mostly it's private clubs where you pay 30-50 Euros a month for unlimited play, often with your own key for 24/7 access. The problem really is the...

We use water mixed with vinegar essence, of course tightly wrung out. It really cleans the cloth well, the rag is completely stained blue after all our 5 tables are serviced.

Unknown manufacturer, said be to be Hungarian made. They're around 20 years old and one of the best tablefitters in Germany struggled to put them together at the last re-felting. We paid 450 per table when the owner wanted them back 10 years ago, so it can't be anything good.

I need help breaking down not one, but two Gold Crown III in a hurry... I run a private club and we normally hire a professional mechanic for re-felt, but we have a tournament on Saturday running into the evening and get 5 new tables delivered on Sunday morning... So I have manpower available...

We play 10-Ball under WPA rules here in Germany. I can't think of any shot I called a safety on... Just call the most likely pocket to have a ball drop into and you're good. I do like the option of giving a shot back if you're hooked after missed shot, but I do want to play the obvious safety...

The best decision is to play your own game, no matter who your opponent is. Playing under WPA rules, which do not have the chance of giving back missed pocketing attempts, I'd probably adjust my game according to my opponent. A guy who takes a shot at every ball he sees the paint of: Play a lot...

Here's the odd German voicing his opinion. I play the 3rd highest league out of 5 in the State of Hassia, where a lot of good team are situated. I won 3 of 8 matches so far as it's my first year in this league. I was just recently invited to play the second last State Championship Qualifying...

Here's a match from the Berlin, Germany 14.1 World Tournament qualifier played at Bata Billiards in Berlin, Germany. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4nM3hnA7jWA It's the only full match I found on youtube and shows the qualifier Frank Scharbach securing his ticket to this years tournament...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=KCtGkHWbnZY#t=73 Shot execution at 1:50min, but since it's accepting a pushout from JJ, I thought to start a little earlier JJ's escape is fantastic as well, just missed it by a mil

Just half the truth there Archer Born 1968 Strickland Born 1961 Avg. age: 48,5 Avg. age in 2001: 36,5 Souquet Born 1968 Immonen Born 1972 Feijen Born 1977 Avg. age: 40,6 Avg. age in 2001: 28,6 So the "old" Europeans were 8 years younger on average when they played in the 2001 Mosconi...
