Thank you!
Already did watch Busti vs Ko Pin Yi.. (yours subscriber already :))
Really neat quality .. IMO pool is need to put out full HD. It's totally different game to watch at this nowadays quality than past..
 
Many thanks for posting the matches.

I only wish the pro-game would add an element of difficulty so runouts aren't so "given." We add that you have to make at least one bank in the course of your runout. If you don't make a bank among your group, you have to bank the 8-ball.
 
Thanks so much. I prefer to watch 8-ball rather than rotational games. Unfortunately for me, high level rotational vs. 8-ball matches on YouTube seem to be 20-1.

I wouldn't go as far as to requiring a ball be banked, but taking what is made on the break can add a slight degree of difficulty.

this requirement sometimes forces the breaking player choose a group which is so bad that the mistake is built-in. So his opponent becomes odds-on favorite to win the rack. It kind of punishes the player who did nothing wrong and just made a ball on the break.

I agree with banking. But very often the layouts are hard enough even without that ;)

Frankly, the game on a 9ft snooker-cut table like they use for Chinese 8-Ball brings new colors to this game. A ball near the cushion is just the same as a cluster, there is a must to go for a secondary break of these. Beauty.

8 ball rules can remain same. Just toughen tables -small pockets and bigger tables like C8B. On such tables, can even play long visible safe which is unheard in usual 9 ft tables :D
 
You are Welcome!

You are welcome. We are glad to be able to make these available. Be sure to thank our primary sponsor, Predator, for also making this possible.
