Does the server have enough juice to broadcast to all these people hooking up and watching at the same time? I have high speed cable, if I watch the match is it going to be smooth? Just wondering.

So much time has gone by since this thing got started and I think that gives OMGWTF an advantage in that whatever her skill level was at a month or so ago, she's had ample time to focus and ramp up her game a bit. Maybe Cubc can do the same but a race to 8 is a little short and with the spot, anything can happen here.
I'll make a list of my assumptions based on reading the tea leaves. So basically, I'm talking out of my a$$, but here it is anyways. lol
Breaking - Advantage Cubc - I'm assuming that Cubc weighs more than OMGWTF.
2 through the money balls - Advantage OMGWTF especially with the spot
Experience under pressure - Advantage Cubc - This is big. I'm guessing this is why a lot of money is going in his direction.
Preparation - Advantage OMGWTF
Location - Advantage OMGWTF - Closer to home.
Table type - Slight advantage to Cubc.
Key to the match, Cubc's breaking. If Cubc's break is erratic, or even just plain unlucky, he's gonna be in big trouble.
Any other comments? It's an open forum. As you see, you don't have to know what you're talking about.

Thanks
BrooklynJay said:have you seen omg break? it's pretty damn good. i wouldn't say that there's an advantage either way. (i haven't seen cubc break on a big table)
i don't know about the experience under pressure either. omg's a competitor and has finished high in many am events. i'm not sure what cubc's experience under pressure is.
table type...because omg plays in a bar box league? not sure why there's an advantage either way here.
regardless, i'm just hoping for a good match.
