Did anyone else just hear that Alex Laley comment? About the players being wired with a heart rate monitor during the last euro tournament. Said the biggest heart rates were measured by players in their seat and not the table. And Shane had the highest recorded measurement at 186 after he missed a 9 ball.
Very interesting. A new, never before discussed topic in pool.

Hopefully we never see it again.
Gorst takes it 7-2.
Next!

Yes, I saw some of that. I don't think a player should be required to have his heart rate made public.
It sounded like it was voluntary. At least I hope it was. Maybe the euro federation was doing a study on heart rates in order to focus on training/breathing exercises.
I'll bet Albin O has an extremely docile heart rate while playing.
Its excellent so far. Been perfect since I turned it on in the last rack of the opening match. Nice just pulling up the Facebook app on the Sony 50 incher, logging in with a fake account, and watching in full screen. Good announcing. No story tellers, and no NYers on the mic.
Marco Polo said Alex lucked a ball....said he got lucky...
..I told him ‘That’s what Efren does.”.....:rotflmao:
Very cool to see the discussion. Thanks for the link
Whatever he's taking i'll have two of. That dude is hilarious.
I tried to translate it and got lost....something along the lines of "go Gorst, nine thousand euros in my bank account!"
:grin-square:
I contacted that IDM about this and they got REALLY defensive when asked if it was voluntary or not. They would not answer a direct question and kept wanting to change the subject. One thing they said which could be true(or not) is that the latest HD cameras are capable of detecting hear-rate so their system(the band-phone) is really no different. Whoever i was messaging did NOT like being questioned on this at all. UPDATE- i guess there is technology that allows ones' heart rate to be monitored via video. Crazy. https://www.forbes.com/sites/robert...heart-rate-using-only-your-face/#205c05654b9d

Once was enough, no thanks
Thankfully he lost so won't have to see anymore of his bs.

You must be real fun at parties
Yeah, his idiotic clown routine isn't the slightest bit amusing. He doesn't pull it off. :embarrassed2:
