Did You Watch The World Pool Championship?

Maybe Next Year
Joey, I didn't watch any of the matches because, twice since I've gotten my laptop I've messed it up by clicking on 'stuff/sites' and downloading 'things' (like Spyware Tracker and other Popup hustles). My wife has told me that she's going to give my $1,800 laptop to some young child if I can't stop clicking on 'things'...
Btw, did you see this post:
Jorge Torres is alive and well. For those that don't remember, Jorge had a website trickshooter.com that showed matches for Free (he also had a pool movie documentary in the works). Jorge and his site dropped out of site for years, but now he's BACK.
Check out his new site and his filmed pool matches at: http://propoolvideo.com
WELCOME BACK,JORGE..... and thanks for the video.

( Jorge will have the finals of yesterday's Florida Tour stop up for viewing later this week and has tons of other matches that he will be putting up in the next couple of weeks )
I like clicking on Jorge's site because I don't have to signup or download or any of that other stuff that I get in trouble doing...

I watched most of it online using the TVU player.
Was great coverage 6-8 hours per day. The final had a lot of atmosphere too.

Wow, the interest in this tournament is really impressive. Take this poll about six months from now and I bet 90% of the people on the board will have seen some WPC coverage at some point. Even if it's not on TV there are so many different ways to view it, I guess that is one of the reasons it is such a popular tournament.
