CSI News -- is the arena going to be better this year? Meaning are the bleachers going to be higher than the pool table?

I can understand someone picking Corey to win this one, but I say
JB can and will win this one.
He's hungrier than Corey IMO.

As I have said in previous posts, I feel Corey has peaked and at this point in his
career, any young gun who comes at him with some hunger "chops" has a damn
good chance of taking the cheese.

Look me up, Str8Pool, after the match and we can discuss the results.

Thanks.

Looking at the new seating chart they have changed things around, but you can't tell by the seating chart at what level the bleachers are. I do hope it is better. I'm going out early to watch some of these matches. I can't swing the full $200 VIP seats for the entire tournament, but do hope the view from the bleachers is better.

Let's hope you are right. Be good to have a crowd around watching these matches.

Are these matches on a bar table? Or did they bring in 9 footer for them this year.

Not sure if it's on a bar table or a 9, but if it's a bar table, ... you know...

The tournaments going on at the same time will be on 7' tables, so one can only assume these challenge matches will be the same. I sure hope not though, and hope they brought in at least one 9' table for them.

If it's on 7', I won't be watching.

Deal breaker for me too. That is why I was asking. I hope it is on a 9 footer.

I'll be there, yapping away as usual. :)
Playing on a 7' Diamond is still real pool I don't care what you say. You still see great shots and good run-outs, and the best players find a way to win. Not the same skills you see on a 9', but SKILLS just the same! Cue ball position becomes the essential thing in these matches. A lot of tight position shots are required. I like these matches with good players involved. It seems like it always comes down to one or two key shots in each match. Try shooting a bank off the end rail for all the cheese and then tell me how easy it is, lol.

I'm sure your commentary will be top notch. For those that can't watch the matches, let me give you a preview of Jay's commentary for them:

Jay: Looks like he has a shot on the 1. Okay, he's probably out from here. Nice out.




It's real pool for hacks like me, but for these guys it's a walk in the park.

The biggest problem is when you see balls go that would NEVER go on a 9' table.

I doubt it could have been that much more costly or difficult to bring in one 9' table for these challenge matches. Even if it was a little more costly, it would increase the amount of viewers which would likely offset those costs.

I think you're right, the same players that win on the 9'ers win on the bar tables which is not just luck. Players and real fans of pool love pool, doesn't matter the table. High level performance is enjoyable no matter the conditions.
Jay, if you could though, please don't let the loud smacking guy commentate with you. I'm sure he's a great person and all that stuff, but for the love of God.... Ok I'm done.
