US Open events at Griff's

[SBC]

a vietnamese fan said there was a viet mirror stream with viet commentary that had 100k viewers when shane was playing the other day. that's crazy for such a small event, shows how popular the game is over there

These guys were bragging about having 5k....

I had Shane vs Earl the day my pool hall opened in 2017 with 4k on a Wednesday night....

Pool in the US is the fringe of fringe sports.

Looks like you are correct. Shane is listed on the players list for the European open that starts on the 11th.

Doesn't look like he entered the banks either after looking at the brackets. The bank tourney is a dramatic drop off in talent, with less than 30 players listed so far and a number of sub 700 Fargo players listed.

He was contractually obligated to play there by his sponsors.

i guess one can say that they had 105k since the vietnamese just re-streamed their stream

He won 11 games -- 8 B&Rs and 3 runouts in games where Szolnoki broke successfully but missed shots. Szolnoki's 4 game wins were by B&R.

Thanks for the correction. Still damned impressive!

I decided to make a video about my thoughts on the event.
