WPC 2007-live internet coverage dates & times

Wpc

Earl got to the table, miscued on 3rd shot, down 0-4 now.

Don't know about Davis/Wiseman, but Davis lost to Hyundal, 5-9.

Earl down 0-5 now. Noticeably bothered, would have to shoot absolute lights out to win this match. Doesn't look like much hope currently.

Holy crap, safety battle, Earl wins the safety battle, gets out, is on the board. Li lets out deflating sigh, bothered by the ease that Earl runs the table. 1-5 now.

Earl's coming back, 2-5 now. Li disturbed by Earl's smoothness.

Earl safeties Li, Li misses kick, Earl's getting into form now, calmer, Li's unsettled some, 3-5 now

Earl is poetry in motion, love to watch him shoot, potting balls about 10-15 seconds apart, Li is frowning now, 4-5 Earl's gaining.

Earl has taken control of the match, 5-5 now.

Earl leads 6-5. Li has the look of defeat in his face. We will see how much resolve Li has now.

7-5 Earl. Exciting rack and out! Earl is getting some laughs out of the railbirds and ref now ...

Another exciting rack, Earl 8-5, 8 racks in a row.

BnR by Earl, 9-5 --- EARL WINS. LI goes home. Earl had 4 BnR's, and won 9 straight racks.

Things don't look good for Earl. The Chinese guy ran two out of the gate, and finally in the 3rd rack when Earl got to the table, he's already showing his dark side. I'd really like to see Earl pull this one out, but he looks like he's already starting to quit.

:( :o :( Americans are dropping like flies. Mike Davis was just eliminated by Hundal. Ronnie Wiseman about to join him, currently losing to Souquet 1-6. Tony Robles, Jeremy Jones and Rob Saez reduced to mere spectators already.

And now, Earl Strickland seems he is not interested in winning. He is in a different world of his own making today (always talking to himself). He should spare himself the humiliation in the future. Just stay home if he does not want to play. It is just so sad seeing the 'Earl' of today making a fool of himself.

So far, it is just Charlie Williams and Corey Deuel who have qualified for the next round, the latter by the skin of his teeth.

With Strickland and Wiseman about to be eliminated (unless a minor miracle happens), that will bring it to only 2 out of the 8 that have alreaday played going to the next round. Hope the rest (Morris, SVB, Bryant, Archer) do a lot better tomorrow.
 
Did the commentators just say that Earl just slammed his cue somewhere? It would not surprise me if he does not finish the game at all.
 
At last, Earl wins his first game. score now 1-5. But looking at him, he does not look interested in winning at all but is just going through the motions. I hope I am wrong and he wins this.
 
Earl's not happy with himself today, but he's still got a chance. The table is breaking pretty easy, so packages are very possible.
 
OMG, Earl is coming back strong. Lead has been reduced to just 2 , score of 3-5 with Earl breaking.

Come on Earl, you can do it!!!!

:rolleyes: :p When has been Earl happy with himself lately? Hope he stops talking to himself and concentrate on the game. It is very disturbing, not to mention embarrasing seeing him behave like that.
 
Yoiks!

What am I doing wrong? I get channel 11910 ESPN is offline.

What channel are you folks on?
 
Wow. Earl now leads 6-5 after trailing 0 to 5 earlier. We are seeing vintage Earl now. I really hope he wins this.

Channel is now 6003. It has been changed from 10912. It is still ESPN sports in SOPCAST. Better tune in now. It has been a loooong time since I have seen Earl play like this.
 
WOW. Earl makes it 7 in a row. He seems happy now that he is winning. Even the crowd is supporting him.:)

Got it - thanks!

Right you are.
 
Ronnie Wiseman has just been eliminated by Souquet. I really hope Earl wins this so he can join Corey and Charlie Williams and make it 3 out of 8 for the Americans going to the next round. The Philippines has an excellent record of 10 out of 11 right now with only Antonio Lining failing to make it to the round of 64. Taiwan has lost 3 players already.
 
Did you hear what the commentators said? 'Earl 1' is now talking to 'Earl 2' and now he is 'talking to the balls'. :p
 
GO EARL.
GO EARL.
GO EARL.
GO EARL.

I CAN'T STAND IT! I have to watch this from a distance at work.

This might be a bit ahead of Sopcast, but the web page says Earl wins 9-5.

Awesome! Nice to see that the real Earl eventually showed up in the match.

To bad for Li. Dr. Jeckyll unfortunately turned into Mr. Hyde (or is it the other way around ;)).
