I see the European Championships have started and they are playing 14.1 right now.

http://www.epconline.eu

I don't recognize a lot of names. (Let me amend: I now see Souquet, Ortmann, Niels, Van Den Berg, Huidji, Jasmin, Gerda, Stepanov, Petroni, Faquet...)

Is anybody watching?

Recording?:)

Is it streaming anywhere?

Go to the site. I think it is but you have to pay.

That's the way it was last two years.

I'd do it but too late for me today and I just found out about a little while ago.

Thanks, looks like a good tournament but I'm not going to pay.

I'm hesitating too... The offer is good, more than 20 tables are streaming live and usually the TV table matches are commentated.

You can buy a single day for 5 euros or the entire competition (8, 9, 10 ball and 14.1) for 20 euros. The competition take place from march 24th to arpril 2nd and regroup men, women and weelchairs players.

Some finals will be live broadcast by Eurosport 2 from what I've heard.

The field looks smaller than usual.

Unfortunately I won't be able to record the stream the way I did last year. Maybe I should remind my pool keen friend who has more free time at the moment.
Thanks for the heads-up Dennis, I must confess I being so busy almost forgot about the tournament :(

I have found information that Eurosport 2 will be showing some live coverage, but not 14.1 unfortunately.

Ten days of high class pool will follow. On March 31st, these matches of the 9-ball competition will be aired LIVE:
 14:45-16:45 semifinal #1
 17:00-19:00 semifinal #2
 20:00-22:00 final match

I will do some more digging to see if anything else will be shown, but by the looks of it, this seems to be it.

I am buying it right now but I do not know how to record it.

Help!:eek:

I have three screens up: Ortmann on one, NIels on one, and Sascha Tege playing Nick Van Den Berg on the other.

Also playing now. Ralf Souquet, Huidji See, Jasmin Ouschan, Gerda Hoffstetter.

Unfortunatley have to work now- a really strong field at the straight-pool tournament this year- Nils seems to be really in stroke, Oli is also on fire and already has beaten my *secret tip* for the win (Manueal Ederer).
Imo Alcaide, Ortmann, Feijen or van den Berg will make it.
But there are several who can runout in one inning. And not to forget about Ralf Souquet- i think he s burning a bit. Last year he wasn t really in good shape but atm he seems to be back in his game- and feeling good in straight-pool.
Will be interesting who will be the champion in this world-class field.

lg and all of you have fun while watching good straight-pool.
And if you have the chance, watch Manuel Ederer- excellent technique and amazing pre-shot routine. (very young guy),

The final four are Thomasz Kaplan, Roman Pruchav, and the respective winners of Sascha Tege/Fabio Petroni and Oliver Ortmann/ Petri Mkkonnen.

Fabio 102-10 and he is at the table.
Oliver 78-118 and he is at the table.
Races to 125.

Go Oliver!:thumbup:

Gotta go now.

Help!
sorry I was forced to be away from the forum for so long Dennis. Maybe next year. For the stream they use from the EPC Windows Media Recorder (WM Recorder) has always worked great. The only change I noticed it couldn't find the video link through Mozilla Firefox, but opening the stream in Google Chrome worked okay for WMR.
Here are some matches my friend recorded: http://propool.ru/_misc/pool-video.php, check top 6 videos. Only this one is from 14.1 event. Russian Pruchai runs 109 on Souquet! And finishes off after a mistake by Ralf.
