according to 1p.org, tony 7-2 end of day 1
For the first time Fedor looked like SVB at the Mosconi Cup
Dude, for real, why?
I can’t tell the full tale of the tape. But I think Fedor’s bank game was failing him. He’d double kiss iffy shots. He’d fire at a chancy shot and sell out. It’s the opposite of what you’d expect. You’d thing he can just fire at anything available and it will go his way. And it seemed he expected that too. But rack after rack a single mistake would sell out the advantage is not sell out 4-5 balls. And Tony made the most of those moments and kept him on lockdown until he could squeeze out the last ball or two for the win.
And it’s not like Tony played pure. He’d rattle balls where in other matches Fedor would put the squeeze on. But Fedor struggled to even contact hangers in Tony’s pocket. And even when Tony is supposed to push deep, he would flub again in cueball position and give Fedor a lifeline (running 1 instead of 3-4)
and Fedor slips up again and let’s Tony get the better side out of the layout.

Why would you say that?
A few of Fedor's comments from an interview after the match:
- "I just got outplayed."
- The table was playing bouncy.
- The table was playing tighter than it should.
- The table was tougher to play on for his stroke than for Tony's stroke.
- Fedor planned to play aggressively but couldn't; it became more of a moving game, to Tony's advantage.
Because if table is very fast, then players need more roll balls slowly. And then both players make odd mistakes... That why i think table could roll off.
