Does anyone know if the APA is streaming any of the matches in Vegas?

No. "World's Largest Amateur Pool Organization" won't let client satisfaction get in the way of profit.
On the other hand, one of my friends streamed their matches themselves through Ustream. Apparently, there's no WiFi available at the Riv, so connection speeds and image quality was way less than be desired. But it still looked OK.
What didn't look OK was how close those Valley bar-boxes were to one another. Shooters would have to wait for players playing next to them. IMO, that's unacceptable at the national tourney level.

yea they were fairly close together, did not really bother me.actually i think it helped my game a few times when i had to wait, it gave me time to collect my thoughts on certain shots without worrying about anyone complaining about taking too long between shots.
i am glad it was kinda like normal conditions during regular league. i think playing under normal conditions at the national level keeps you in your normal routine.
thats why i dont understand why all the complaining about valleys vs diamonds at the national level.
i know all the bars and pool halls that hold bcapl, napa, and tap leagues are not full of nothing but diamonds so why complain if you are not on diamonds at the national level.
dont get me wrong i like diamond tables but i want to play on what i am used too when i am in my most important match of the year.
Stream apa matches ........really...its not real pool!!!! Its a league for FUN. I'm not bashing just saying...been to vegas in apa. The way they have changed the scoring now its really going down hill fast. I can't picture watching two 2's battle it out live it's bad enough watching it on monday night live. BCA I can see....

It was the APA Masters team tournament, and each person plays heads up, its not handicapped. My
friends team won it last year and they just finished up in 3rd place this year. I think they should stream
at least the top 8 matches, it was some good bar box pool. My friend jason sat in the crowd and
streamed the semi finals on livestream.

Local guys done good for us, got 3rd in the masters, too. Right on the heels of a strong performance at the Rio! Looks like it's a good year here in the PNW.
