I actually support this
Mosconi Cup 2025, Dec. 3-6, Alexandra Palace, London
- Thread starter Bob Jewett
- Start date
So you think a race to 13 is long enough to determine a winner but races to 5, first to 11 sets is too short? lol. A small advantage multiplies exponentially each set you play, same as games in a long race.
yes but david has a great temperament, he won't dwell on it
Filler is just unfair at the Mosconi Cup. Relentless. 0 dog in him.
I see his shot-making and I think to myself "you's ah scared ovim"

these short sets are made for tv/stream viewing. its a crapshoot. you know of any major championships that play races to five in any number? And don't say this deal because its not a championship of anything.
JJ alluded to the pockets being a hair tighter than 4inch. He said probably 3 and 7/8.
Which means we are even more royally fked.

His confidence is so extreme that I can only assume he broke and ran a rack of 9 ball the first time he ever picked up a cue.
That’s like saying a finals is 13 races to 1 so it’s a crap shoot because races to 1 are a crap shoot. It’s the totality that shows the edge. Europe has not won 15 of 18 years on a coin flip.
FSR in the crowd.
This dude doing the interviews is whispering into the mic, while everyone is screaming their lungs out. Forget Moritz and Pijus, he's the real rookie. FSR couldn't even hear him
Put some bass in your voice dude

WNT TV I heard its on some bootleg/pirate YT channels too
Do you have $10?
Have you witnessed the number of ways the US has found to dog it in this deal? I don't care how many times a team wins, the format is still a joke. Its a made 4 tv time sensitive deal so they have be fast i get it but winning/losing it doesn't move the pool needle at all. Thirty minutes after the last ball drops no one says a thing about it. Its an exhibition and always will be.

I don't like them on the same team
Well on a previous shot in another game, Shane deferred to Fedor and directly asked his opinion/advice and Fedor said yeah go ahead.
I think they will be okay.
Correct. It's ridiculous to say races to five are a crapshoot. Races to 5, races to 7, races 9, races to 11 - the better players are going to win most of the time with alternate break.
As for championships, Predator is using sets for some of its events. Race to 4 sets, best two of three of three of five. The better players are winning most of the matches at these events too.
