Thx for the nice compliments and ur commitment
hi guys
it was a tough day the first one, but based from ur comments and the ironic ones from the eric with the very bizarr "h" at the end, we managed it appropriately

thx for ur understanding re the little glitches we had with the volume in the beginning and some slight payment issues.
svb was the clear favorite before the match. him winning was no surprise to us as shane owns a rightful place in the top 5 of the world. at least imho. regli wasnt feeling comfy in the first part of the match. at 16:6 regli was able to keep up with shane till the end. the next 70 racks went 36:34 to regli, despite his - for his standards - bad braking. i am pretty sure though if regli had managed to get closer and put more heat on, svb could have stepped things up a gear. apart from breaking though, regli has not played his A game. usually when playing him, he makes pretty consistently 3, 4, 5-packs or even more in 9-ball. even shane admitted afterwards that this guy could play and beat him evenly - especially when considering reglis last racks since it was 48:33. i am proud of regli's achievement! but i am also glad for shane and have no bitter feelings whatsoever.
tomorrow afternoon, as of 10:30 am EST. dimitri jungo will try to park shane in his seat. jungo is a very professional player and real handful for every opponent. he is more the grinder type of guy and u all now how hard those guys are to shake of. that shud not mean he is playing tiringly slow but very determined and never rushes any decision. i think he has a decent chance of beating shane. furthermore dimitri plays in his home town and therefore i am sure he will be highly motivated and will draw some crowds to Le Pavillion. i truly hope u folks will follow the action again and may tell a friend or two to tune in as well. we will do our best to provide satisfying commentary. it was my first time and english aint my mothertongue as u can tell

so cut as some slack if we mess some words up from time to time.
