I watched Thorpe play Max, and SVB. Maybe I'm watching a different 14.1 event. Been with family for 6 days and then got a new computer. Been off line for about 10 days. Plus add few years :)

Deuel was behind 72-166 then ran 119 to almost get out. Thorsten ran 10 and then flubbed a pretty easy short cut shot. Corey ran 9 and out.

Thank you sir. Corey is a real talent. Love to watch him play anything!
 
The stream has been down for about 5 min. now, starting right with SVB running his first rack.

Edit -- it came back at about the 8 minute mark, with SVB on the same run, rack 2.

CSI has been putting the US open straight pool championship from earlier this year on youtube in the last few days. That's the one you have been watching.

I don't know what they were counting, but the misses count was way high in that event. The are using Pascal Dufresne's Fourteen-One Engine software, which was also used in the American 14.1 event recently. It's good. But they had trouble with mistakes in the earlier event because of who was doing the input (not Pascal), plus the software had to be adjusted frequently to agree with the scores kept by the players. I don't know who is doing the input in this event.

I can only assume if you have someone entering the stats, it must be someone knowledgeable, that is very familiar with the game of 14.1, to be able to differentiate between a miss, a safety, or a two-way shot.

Love to see this match someday. Hope it gets posted gratis somewhere.

Anyone else have trouble with the stream at the end?

My stream kept going out at the end so I missed a lot of the last part of the match. Anyone else have that problem?

It was out for me twice -- about 8 minutes during Shane's first scoring inning and 3 or 4 minutes near the start of his last inning.

Mark Griffin owns those rights, and he has been holding that event for several years now without much success (in terms of entrants). The reigning champ is SVB.

For anyone interested, I pm'ed CSI Media here on AZBilliards about the US Open 14.1 name. Worst they can say is no.
 
Okay, it must be said. I know that Charlie Williams is not popular in all circles, but we must acknowledge that there would have been no World 14.1 Championship for the past 14 years without Charlie and Cindy. There have been low points, that is sure, but let's hope the event will continue. Thanks, Dragon Promotions.
