Really find it hard to watch this channel anymore. What happened just now has happened numerous times:

Watching a match from the Las Vegas open between Hoang and Zielinski. Zielinski won first set 4-3 and Hoang the second set 4-1. During the final set they go to commercial break, when they come back they’re showing a totally different tournament for kids 16 and under.
 
I know why it happens but it sucks. The kids finished and now they switched back to the other tournament. I’m not sure they’ll finish it before switching back. Another program director, with the viewers in mind, is what they need
 
The alternative is watching replays of corn hole or axe throwing live and replays on ESPN.
It seems like every time I visit that station, there is some new version of a existing game
or sport. Now we have competitions with 3 different teams and goals on the same field.

Heck, there are games throwing a golf ball in a modified La Cross type stick instead of
swinging a club to hit it. Other games involve trampoline bouncing of a ball trying to catch
and bounce it to make your opponent miss. There’s wrestling to force your opponent into a
stacked pile of truck/tractor tires, There’s so many new sports that it makes pickle ball seem
like it’s been played for several decades. So when billiards is on TV, just appreciate that it has
not changed. It’s played the same way with limited variations and the fact it’s even broadcast
is something to celebrate, at least in my opinion. Maybe this is the start of a comeback on ESPN.

I’m looking forward to ESPN’s coverage of the Moscini Cup & hopefully, other billiard competition.
Meanwhile, billiards tv is way better than watching Cornhole competition that’s repeatedly re-run.
 
an alternative to Billiard TV is to stream content from YouTube. All of those matches are there. I do both.

As for ESPN I hope they don't screw it up.
