U. S. Open 8 Ball

The best match I’ve seen today was Oscar vs SVB.....two late dry breaks by Oscar made
the difference at hill-hill.
SVB vs Robo was mistake ridden ( for their level)

Thorsten looked drained.

You don't understand the culture he comes from. Hand shakes there are not the norm. A person's words and actions are how they show respect. A simple touch of hands is an act of great respect.

Jay, I’m a big fan of you and your work, but I disagree with your defense of Dennis’ typical handshake when he loses. I’m also sensitive to differences in cultural norms since my parents were both immigrants. However, Dennis has spent enough time in the U.S. to know that in this country you show a man respect by firmly shaking his hand, looking him in the eye and congratulating him. When in Rome do as the Romans. If the tournament was in the Philippines perhaps your argument would have more validity.
