Watch the video of that golden break. What was wrong with the rack? It's a 9-ball with some luck involved and it just happens the breaking player makes a good break...

Good rack...the nine wasn’t going anyplace until the cue ball hit it again.

..before my time, there was an old timer who used to bet on making the nine like that on
a 5x10....nine wouldn’t move....whitey would knock it in off the side rail...5 tries?

The crowd exploded in applause, but he knew that wasn't his planned shot. Maybe feeling a little guilt (that was a theory from some other players afterwards, at least), he missed a simple shot on the 5 to let Max get on the double hill. Then the snapped 9 came out straight out of the rack directly to the foot pocket, as if the balls below it were loose.

.

I just came in as Shane was shooting the 5-ball.....don’t think he missed it....
...looked like he was playing a hook....trying to kiss off the 7-ball and bump it out
and block the five....Shane had no shot on the 6-ball...he wasn’t playing the 5 in.

Did you remember to plug your car in?....

Orcollo beat Deuel hill-hill.
Cory and Max are at the same position on the B-side...so the pressure for the Mosconi
spot on the team is getting greater.

Alex plays the winner of Yapp and Garcia on the B-side....6:30 tonight, I believe.

Came through a bit of rain starting in West Va...
...told the Greek that in this dampness....if you hit the guard rail, the car will come off short....
...so steer accordingly.

I've heard that Lassiter played the nine by that method. Lots of players in this tournament are sending the cue ball over the spot. Besides making the nine, there is some chance to scratch.

Day 4 - Adults Only

Down to 32 players (12 on winners side and 20 on losers side).

But I like it.

One Eye Jesse....oldtime rom owner in Detroit told me about the cut break.
....so I tried it in a money match at the Rack....won a few $$$.
...made the 9-ball a few time, either straight in or banking it.
...but I also made three balls a lot.

I was putting whitey very close to the side rail rail and thin cutting the one...low ball.

Aranas shooting 1000 but behind 3-4

 

[skogstokig]

aranas is still my bet to take it all, he is due a big title. i looked at the brackets before and he seems to have gone through almost undented

He might be about to get dented, down 9-4 to Kazakis.

 

[jasonlaus]

Corey wins, Max loses.

Guess we have our Mosconi team???

 

[YoungAtHeart]

We're down to the last 8 on the winners side.
6 of them are Europeans!
And another 5 or 6 Europeans on the 1 loss side!

 

[Joe_Jaguar]

Hopefully the winner's side on the stream tonight at 6:30 & 8:30 and then loser's at 10:30.

How 'bout 6:30 Daz vs Filler and then at 8:30 Shaw vs Ko.
