Pool on tv tonight - International Challenge Of Champions

looks like its gonna be on at 9 baseball is running over...at least here in florida it is.

thanks for the heads up.
 
ahh, the challenge of champions. you know, for a little history, the first year they had this tournament mike lebron went off at 20 to 1 on the board at vegas and it was the FIRST (and last) time pool was ever on the board in vegas.....

guess what the players did...... put who knows how much on lebron and eased him throught the tournament. haha. in the final i watched buddy hall make two mistakes that he would NEVER make. anyway, people are always asking why pool is where it is, well, chalk this up (and stuff like it) as a BIG part of the reason.
 
i heard the boys made them give the money back?sounds about right.do a deal and get airballed,like.
 
Thats lookin out !!

Thanks for the heads up !!!

Just turned it on :thumbup:

Did that happen before or after the color of money? hehe

Anyways watching it now........
 
WOW!! That cut on the 5ball was nothing but getting THAT shape afterwards on the 6ball was awesome! Wow...
 
Also watching it, what a pain in the butt to keep taking balls out of the pocket and moving them to another pocket not to take a chance of the ball your pocketing to bounce out. Seems like they would have ball returns on the tables.
 
Good match, watching the first match dennis orcollo seemed to be the man to beat , but FU was strong strong...this tournament was chinese and phillipino owned.


The soft break cost orcullo the final match, ask allen hopkins only corey deuel should do that.

Hey I just saw at the end they replayed it!! It was the "Super Shot" of the match. :)
 
Thanks I enjoyed that. Did the pockets seem big to you guys? They didn't seem as tight as the Diamond pro cut or the Brunswick tournament edition to me. Just curious, I still like the Olhausen table (all business).

Yep, like the shot on the 8 ball down in the left foot corner that hit the rail about a diamond short and wobbled in anyway?
 
Did

You guys not notice the 3rd row of the rack even with the middle diamond, meaning that the 9 ball was on the spot. Probably why Orcullo had so much trouble breaking, and why Fu kept making the 1 in the side pocket.
