Craig Riley nice win over Oliver Ortmann: 10-4

I had a shaky start (still got serious eye problems) losing first two frames, but then played ok. Best thing was it was the TV table not only showed on big screens all over theclub but also Im told streamed live on the internet! There was 6000 users apparently watching at one point - good job I didnt know that as I wouldnt have made a ball lol!

PS
I miss straight pool :(

PPS
Met no shoe and pool addict, top guys!

TheVeryClosetobutNotQuiteLowestPrimeNumber,
"Played ok?????" I guess this is the understatement of the year.

We used to think Ortmann was a champion, but I guess he must just be a shortstop (I advise against mentioning this to him).

Thanks for the great update, good luck the rest of the way (you know, when you have to start playing some of the really good players).
 
Good job Craig, especially as Ortmann seems to be really on form this year.

Anyone know where to find the Internet stream for this tournament?
 
Links to score and video

OK, found it (Thanks www.pro9.co.uk!)

www.eurotour.nu - New EuroTour web site.
www.eurotour.nu/scoreboard.asp - Scoreboard updates every 10 seconds
www.betandwin.com - LIVE video (Account needed apparently, trying to set this up now, seems to only require a valid email address and not credit card information foruntately.)
 
Wow Craig, awesome showing. Keep it up! We'd like to watch it too, if anyone can find it online.

Craig, you are easily my new hero. I will think of a list of responsibilities this entails, and pm them to you later.

In the meantime, awesome playing and keep it up! You are really making a name for yourself...

You have to setup an account (Free but requires a valid email address.) Then on the home page on the bottom right edge you will see the current Live Bet events (The black/red boxes) and can click the link for the current match.

Let us know if it works for you.

I can click on that but i still dont see streaming. Betting sites often have 'live bets' but they dont provide you with live streaming. It just means you can bet during the match/game at whatever the current odds dictated by the current situation.

It's 4-2 Lely over Ouschan currently.

EDIT-Now i see how to do it- Sorry-let me try.

Must be a sardo-trained table, they are racking by placing the balls in their respective places. :o Anybody else watching?

:p Glad to see you can "see" the stream as well.

In the past this tour had their own Streaming and it was regular size 6" or so but now these Bet and win jerks are picking up the tab for it, it sucks. Glad i gave them a phony cell number anyway.

Me too! :p I remember the old stream was pretty decent in size. :rolleyes: The World 9-ball Championships had the best live stream. :D
 
Way to go, Craig. Sounds like you are still riding the wave of momentum you built last week in New Jersey.
