is kaci a lock now for reyes cup and MC? 100k should go a long way

edit: yes, karl confirmed, qualified for the reyes cup

 

[JAM]

Kaci said his arm, his bridge hand, was hurting him a little from his accident today.

 

[JAM]

Kaci automatically qualifies for the Reyes Cup representing Team Europe. Now he smiles!

i'm drinking a beer every time JJ says "or whatnot"

I'm going to join you. I also liked the walk up music of Fedor...he is embracing him Americana and I love it! Great kid, amazing talent.

fedor walking on to zach bryan's "nine ball", singing along. i think they bummed wojciech's walk on song and changed mid walk

I'm both surprised and happy that MR is acknowledging other games. During the player interviews, several of the players mentioned World 10 Ball Championships. Frost and Efren talked about One Pocket a bit. MR aired all of the above.

 

[CanadianGuy]

yeah they missed the 10 ball acknowledgement during the match when they were citing his accomplishments, seemingly on purpose
glad they acknowledged it later

 

[CanadianGuy]

we NEED a Gorst / Kaci final

come on Fedor!!!!

fedor BNR after perfect break, 1-0

...followed by dry break and woj runout

Kaci was in the semifinals at the World's when he was 19, and look at him today. He wins. Kaci wins! Gee, can you show a little emotion, Kaci?

Overwhelmed by emotions!

Thanks for the visual report.

Thanks JAM for the very detailed updates.

Very appreciated

 

[skogstokig]

not many mistakes from either. 2-2, woj looking to run out after wet break

Damn are we going to see a Kaci/Szewczyk final? Last time they met up in a final, or was it a semi final, of the world 10 ball Kaci lost and got super salty, went online and said he got lucky, talked. A lot of crap.

 

[skogstokig]

6-4 fedor.

I'm guessing next year MR will make further efforts to black out the spectator seats to avoid the bad optics

I doubt it.

This has been an issue for MR since they started taking over, and they always show the stands even when they're empty.

Clearly it doesn't matter to them or affect their bottom line.

Sure, it sucks to see. But I guess I don't really care as long as the prize pools keep growing and players are getting paid.

 

[Jimmorrison]

Thanks to you and Jam for the play by play!

 

[BeiberLvr]

Thanks everyone for the updates

 

[skogstokig]

it's high quality play from both.

i would hope the final brings more pressure. or maybe these guys are just that cool

woj runs out after safety exchange. 6-5
