They're all human!
Yeah, but just barely.
Dry break, Shane runs out. 4-4.
Bergman had a couple errors hopefully he can complete the comeback though
Aranas broke and ran great shot on the 8 to 9 and moves on to the final 4.
Bergman looked worn out . Too many mistakes.
Does anybody have the brackets? Who's left in this event?
Are these brackets accurate? https://ctsondemand.com/mobilebracketviewer.aspx?BracketID=d3cb7d4f-47f1-485e-9f61-6206391d2541

A couple of observations. It seems like half the matches are going 7-6 first of all, so they are long matches. Hats off to Chris Robinson who is breaking through with his best performance yet in a major event. Looks like he has made himself into a world class player! Very bothersome to me that all these players played 11:30 PM matches, some ending after 1 AM and yet they all have to play back at 10 AM! Not only that, they must play continuously all day today without breaks between matches. I'm sorry but that is some pretty poor scheduling imo. There has to be a way this could have been scheduled differently so this is not an endurance contest on the last two days. These guys have to be worn out and they are playing today with too little rest. Big advantage here to the youngest and strongest players.
We are going to be watching some very weary pool players (mentally and physically) going at it today. They are going to have to dig deep to win this one. It will be especially tough for anyone on the losers side to get there since they won't get any breaks all day. At least on the winners side the final two undefeated players will get a long break after they play (and survive) their first two matches. Big advantage here!
It's a shame to see it end this way, when they had such a great field of players and some pretty decent prize money. 17K on top is not bad for the "preliminary" event. One other thing. Professional pool might be the only sport playing next week in the entire country. Everything else has shut down! I wish the best for all these guys and the amateur players who are there. I hope to God none of them come down with the Corona virus, which is everywhere now, including Nevada whether they publicize that fact or not.
