AP's cue????

Anybody know what Alex is using here? Looks like an old-school Hoppe-style of some sort.
 
Did he get in just because of where he's from? Know nothing about this guy. Must be able to play a little but AP is pretty tough.
Looks like he won a local qualifier. Kinda like letting a local club pro play in the Masters. This spot should have gone to another top player, IMO. Kinda makes event look phony.
 
They said he was basically a local league player, but English 8-ball or black ball or whatever. They had to "drag a 9 foot table out of storage for him to get practice on" is what they were saying before the start of the match. They also said he has a snooker background to, running 50s :sorry:

I can understand giving a local a qualifying spot, but not in an elite 16 man invitational.

Well, he'll snag a few quid and tell his buddies he got hammered by the Lion. Wish they'd asked Billy Thorpe to go. Kid is electric to watch.
 
There was a qualifying tournament he won for the last spot. They streamed it live on YouTube
Looks like it was all locals. I looked it up and couldn't name ONE player. And this is a world-class event? Were they afraid they couldn't sell seats without a local boy playing? Kinda like NASCAR calling up some local Saturday-night dirt tracker and saying" Hey, we got a spot open at the Daytona 500. Want to race?"
 
this sucks whale privates, i've never not been able to see a stream and here i am with time to watch this one and can't, this blows.
 
if anyone is having difficulty finding a stream link, google "Sky Sports Mix"

several sites will show up. you should find one to work.
