Me neither. When I turned to the match Vergara was making the last three shots of Game 16 (long kick in on the 7, long shot on the 8, thin cut on the 9 with the bridge) and then the 9-ball on the break.

Sophie's son.


uh huh....

 

[skogstokig]

all ko brothers there supporting pin yi. kledio kaci playing his first ever QF and big kaci is away gambling.. (but maybe kledio didn't want him there)

Unless FSR beats Biado, and I hope he will, we will have four Asian semifinalists, and they are all Filipinos. Well played, Asia.

The closeness of the Ko brothers is really something to behold. At the 2022 World Games in Alabama, Ko Pin Yi, who was not in the field, came half way around the world from Taiwan just to support his brother Ko Ping Chung.

It's official. The last four are all from the Philippines. Good luck tomorrow to these fine cueists.

Not true — three of the semifinalists are Filipino: Roda, Chua, and Biado. One is from Chinese Taipei/Taiwan: Ko Pin Yi.

What was odd??

Jaden

Fedor quitting at 5-5

 

[Bob Jewett]

Fedor quitting at 5-5

According to posts on FB: He was having a physical/medical issue. He has had similar problems before in heat.

Oops, I dogged that one. Thanks for the correction.

 

[o.g. (old guy)]

Sophie's son.


uh huh....

I thought he looked more like Varner's son.

 

[Monti]

I think FSR will be the first mosconi pick now. Done enough in last few weeks to merit the position

FSR and david seems like a sound choice. (no matter the status of filler)

3 of 4 is pretty sick too. WNT needs a manila open, that's clear. this guy vergara qualified and almost made it to semis.
