Alex Pagulayan vs Eklent Kaci Action Match July 27-29th...Who do you guys like ?
- Thread starter terryhanna
- Start date
I think that's more likely than if he comes back to win that Kaci wants a rematch after he's already spit the bit against Biado after a big lead , ,

Nope
If Alex can't win after 3 days of play at this game, he isn't going to want to keep playing this same game.
He will just move on to a different game.
Plenty of action around there that suits him.
Meaning, plenty of poker players that like to play Alex 1hole getting huge weight for 3k per game. He will get into some of that and win his money back or (someone's money) back...then some more on top.
He will just take this loss and move on.
Sorry for people that bet on Alex....But Alex is experimenting when to wear the glasses and when not to....can't be unsure in a fast paced rotation game.
In the meantime, I think Alex can still can play top level onepocket… while experimenting with the glasses.
Just my opinion....btw, I'm a huge Alex fan...just had a bad feeling about this matchup.

No need to make excuses for Alex. With the glasses on, he looked sharp in the World Cup of Pool, tied for 5th at the US Open in the spring and tied for 5th again in the WPA World 10-ball. He's still one of the best, but he's not the Alex of old. He got into a tough game here for sure. Maybe he'll make the comeback. We shall see.
He remains the world's best one pocket player and everyone knows it. Good for him if there's a line of poker players forming around the block to play him for very high stakes at that game even though he's the best, but it sounds too good to be true. If it is true, he should probably move to Las Vegas.
Short Dinner break for the players then 3rd set at 8:15 Vegas time
The WPA rules actually have it both ways for the 3-point rule. Rule 2.3 uses the language "cross the head string" (not "touch"). But Regulation 18, to give additional information about the 3-point rule, uses the language "touch the head string line." I pointed out this inconsistency 3 years ago (only on AzB), but it's still that way.
As for what has actually been used in some of the tournaments I've tracked:
• WPA World 9-Ball Championship -- cross head string (2018, 2016, 2015)
• DCC 9-Ball -- cross head string (2019); no 3-point rule (all prior years)
• International 9-Ball Open -- touch head string plane (2018, new event)
• US Open 9-Ball Championship -- pass side pockets (2011-2015); pass head string (2016); touch head string plane (2017); no 3-point rule (2019)
The comeback starts here. I hope.
Wow, I've never seen the Filipinos gamble against each other before. Could be historic.
What happens if balls pass the head string, hit the top rail and bounce back down table?
Do balls have to come to rest in the head string to count?
No they don't have to stay in the kitchen as soon as they touch the head strings it's a point
He switched to his wood shaft from his Revo mid match in the 1st set and he's still using it and playing great.
