Watchin' two good players, ugh.... they need a Shot Clock.
Unable to watch.

 
I agree…..they are good but unnecessarily slow….I‘m blaming it on Ralf….a great player who belongs in the HOF….but manages to look at every shot like he’s never seen a pool table before…plays better with a shot clock.

Very well, and accurately, stated. Love RS but he can be a tad 'leisurely'.
 
Treviso is a cool place to be for a pool tournament. On my bucket list of Italian cities to visit if I can ever manage to get over there.
 
Talked with a retired Airline stewardess in her 70's.
Her favorite countries were Scotland and Italy.

Funny how it goes both ways, I much prefer to watch slower (pro) players. More time to think about the table and what I'd do without having to pause so much. I don't get anything out of the outcomes of the matches 99% of the time, but it's a fun excercise to compare own shot selections to the pros. Might learn a thing or two sometimes, when you realize the reasons they pick certain shots over others.
 
It just sucks for the sport, you have 2 world champions playing against each other in the semi-final and they make 6k....sad

I can't Count the number of times I've heard this playing/supporting 3 USA Pro Pool Tours.

What's working against MR is economy.
It costs soo much to travel/eat out/hotel etc..... they better get that eXtra money cued up soon.
