Steinway Classic Brackets???
- Thread starter Kickin' Chicken
- Start date
Think I saw 1 est. somewhere
Was it subtitled?!
Not with his break he won't.
Not gonna happen
Just curious why you would think Vilmos is the biggest surprise? He is more than capable of beating anyone at any given time
When was the last time he was in the final 8 of a Semi-Major event...?
He's a great player,but in this field, he is the biggest surprise(IMO)...
He beat Mika 9-1(who Knocked out Orcollo), and he sent the reigning world champ Ko Pin Yi home.
Granted, it's a short race, but he kicked it up a notch this week.
I like Biado. In fact, I would like Lil Ko or Biado to win this cos both have not won tourney of this size in US. Lil Ko won CSI event some years ago but that was invitational
I chose the other 4 chose they are the better breakers and in this conditions, the better breakers have the edge.
Of cos Biado or Lee Van or Vilmos or Mika may snap it off but that has to depend on other 4 napping or having a bad day
First up 1pm EST are losers side matches
Ruslan Chinakhov v Mika Immonen
Lee Van Corteza v Vilmos Foldes
after that 2nd session
Ko Ping Chung v Ruslan Chinakhov or Mika Immonen
Shane v Lee Van Corteza or Vilmos Foldes
Winners Side final Carlos Biado v Jayson Shaw is 3rd session of the day.
That will be good match cos it will be contrasting styles.

Just finished fourth in a North Carolina Tournamnet right before the US OPEN with a lot of top players. Has won the world Jr nine ball (granted, a while back) and has finished 3rd-4th in the world nine ball (also a while back). So the answer is he has not finished high in a semi major lately but definitely has the ability to compete with anyone at anytime.
When Vilmos gets an early lead in a match, he is one of the best players in the world in keeping his foot on the gas and getting to the finish line.
I agree he has kicked it up a notch. He has not done well in semi majors in the states recently but plays consistently in the Mezz West State Tour and plays absolutely world class.
Foldes defeats Corteza 9-7 and will play SVB next on stream
Mika defeats Chinakhov 9-6 and will play L'il Ko next

Little Ko?
first push out by foldes says it all: he's too scared of svb's shot making, so he pushed into such a hard shot, got it back and scratched
Thanks for the update.
Please keep them coming...at work and can't watch stream right now.
yep Lil Ko - edited & thx
