Young Yubu full on power break!
He mastered 8 ball game on every aspects. Would be nice if matchroom try to bring him in to the next world 8 ball championship? Would be awesome to see him play on the "regular" 9ft tables.

Is there any video of him playing American 8-ball or 9-ball?

predator owns the 8-ball, not matchroom. would be cool yea. he'd probably be one of the favorites to win, which i don't think is true for every good c8b player. the good movers and safety players in c8b will have their edge blunted in regular 8b simply because those aspects aren't as important as BNR rate.

of course it's zero, but that's also because of how few they are compared to the men. maybe less than 1% of pool players worldwide? no african, indian or pakistani player have won a major either..

I believe Karen Corr won the Turning Stone Classic on Mike Zuglan's Joss Tour several years ago. Always a full field of 128 of the strongest players in the Northeast with a smattering of other champions thrown in for good measure.

Yes, indeedy. In fact, Karen Corr won quite a few Joss Tour tournament stops each season, and I guarantee you that none of the fellows wanted to draw her name on the charts. Keith was ribbing Earl one day while he was practicing. Earl was all smiles, but Earl was sweating it, and Keith knew it. Karen was sitting on the sidelines waiting for their match to begin. She was ready for battle.

Karen Corr was the darling of the Joss Northeast 9-Ball Tour. Keith and I both enjoyed being around her. She always stayed late to sweat Keith's matches and vice versa.

Karen's highest finish at Turning Stone was 2nd to Shaw in August 2016 at TS XXVI: https://forums.azbilliards.com/thre...ers-and-runners-up.459038/page-5#post-7446543.

But she has won 5 times on the Joss Tour -- once each in 2003, 2005, and 2008, and twice in 2007.

She also finished 2nd one year in the American 14.1 Championship. Appleton won that year.

None of the Mandarin speakers I know play pool, and none of the pool players I know read Chinese or speak Mandarin. Is there a pinyin translation for Chinese 8 ball?
