That's right, you know, Ava hasn't been in the finals since '98 and she actually won in that finals against Allison Fisher and I think she's really going to hold on to that tight as she comes in here and really tries to hurt the lady. Fisher. Yes, there is a lot of history between the two and we will get to that during the match. Now it's time to find out who she is. is going to be the 2012

allison

with a tremendous victory over the number six ranked kelly fisher to the table come the handshake both great champions very good friends have known each other for a long time and here is the delay for the initial break ava lawrence the surprising viking on the left allison fisher on the right two of the 48 left who came to michigan and it will be allison with the initial break jeanette while they prepare the keys for the game what are your thoughts?

Ava just has to stay calm. have confidence in yourself you know you've made it this far you know you've been playing really well so you just have to keep your confidence in yourself allison you have to do your job you have to make sure you stay on the right side of the ball sometimes you question her decisions, but to me she seems very comfortable, so we just have to hope that Ava has a good chance because she is certainly capable of beating anyone at any time. Alright, here we go, Alison, to the table, first break wherever she wants. ser ava will be sitting and i hope to have a chance at the table in this opening

rack

the wpba masters finals here we go solid hit the only white ball is floating towards the side pocket she will end up right in this careful five ball well she You've seen that one well, but I'm not sure the one ball will clear.

We'll take a look at Allison's reaction. Yeah, if the one ball is cleared, she would already be shooting, so she's now she's. just looking at what type of safety you want to play while you take a look we'll give you the rules of this final game it's a seven way race for the title a 30 second shot clock with one extension per

rack

the winner will break and it's a foul on all balls, she has to place the cue ball under the five without letting the ball go back. Alright, that's a good opening safety, yes, she knew she could put the cue ball behind the five, but she needed to do it. hit it soft enough to make sure it's okay a real kick she's going to try to hit this she's not trying to hit it she's trying to get this baby to play right that ball closer to the pocket the neighbor would have liked it but a good right hit let's take another look, right, she hit it a little lower than she intended on one ball, luckily the one ball rolled, clipping both balls and leaving Allison very long, it looks like she's got a little bit of an angle where I'm at.

I'm not sure I decided to go on the short side, but maybe she came too close. Oh, she couldn't do it. She chose to play it safe. Two curls up to the right five and she actually she can hit these two balls and if she sees. if the two ball is placed very well to get out of the five in the side pocket if she hits it hard enough oh she chose to play safe, that's a nice safe right there, especially helps her get out. Wow, another look, safety is important here in this opening grill. That's right, she decided to let the two balls go where she could allow me to place the cue ball on this final rail and it ended up very well.

The five ball helped again because she took away one of the side rails so she could kick. now she pretty much has a choice, she's going to hit this long side rail 10 just as she's looking and again the extension is gone, you heard Steve Tipton say 10 Allison has to duck and shoot there she is and she misses so let's look at the last roll. from eight to four with the nine we'll get to that in a minute, let's take another look at this, yes, she ran out of time to throw these two balls and barely misses, but what she did manage to do was screw up the eight. nine and four, so now even with the ball and head on the two, there is no guarantee that he will finish well, so remember the same situation in the extension opportunity, things will improve a little and accelerate, here this is where you really have to trust your knowledge in your shot jeanette that's right, she's going to cut the three ball this is exactly where she really wanted to be it seems like she didn't play the position well but she did, she allowed her cue ball to cut the three ball finely, meaning your cue ball can travel quite a bit, it will go from one, two, three rails straight to the four nines and hope to split them.

She made a great effort while she prepares. I will quickly tell you about this excellent gaming equipment. Diamond Paragon table in use the delta 13 shelf the true triangle and the beautiful Simonis 860 fabric in that model that works well safety game by Ava Allison will now come off the side rail and try to hit this four eight combination that she wants to hit side top of the four so the four can cut the eight ball, here we go, probably the key shot on this rack, I hope those balls are open, yeah, the bad thing is if she jumps and makes the four ball in the corner from the pocket is the cue. the ball can possibly scratch in this side pocket cut the four balls to make a jump shot and try to cut the four balls in the side pocket let the cue ball come loose, it is also very difficult to hit such a thin ball with that level of accuracy elevated and jumping oh my goodness the question is where does that cue ball go between the eight and the seven?

We will take it. How about? Another look, for sure. Alright. Jump over this ball. The super fine cut lets the cue ball come loose a little, but she made the. ball, you have to hit it with a little internal English because otherwise you're in danger of getting scratched, it's such a fine shot that the cue ball wants to come back there, oh, you hit that ball really thick, it left Alice in one shot perfect quickly for the table, yes it definitely looked rushed in that shot, sometimes a function of that shot clock can hide under everything that's going on, it actually has more drawers that's right, I wanted to punch a little hole in the side rail , but more English than Instead of drawing, he got more draw than English, which made the cue ball very low again.

She's going to cut the seven ball a little bit. It's still good, but it's not exactly where she wanted to look good now that nine down the short rail is all her job. in front of her, it was important for Ava to take that other shot instead of letting Alison get comfortable here. She really she has a chance to have some nice easy shots to start with and those nine Alison Fischer got an early lead of a rack over the years. We've come to know a lot about Allison Fisher in a Hall of Fame career, but there's always time to learn a little more.

Let's now go after her tail. Well, I've worked hard on what I think has made me a fitter person. I know I take the game very seriously. I eat sensibly. You know, when I'm at events, when I'm away from the table. So, I try to do my best to perform well in this event. I have played very consistently and I believe. Coming into the TV match, I probably had the best performances of the fourth players involved. I have worked on different aspects of my game, like my brakes improved significantly and that is very important when you play against the big breakers.

I've been playing all these years and to keep finding improvements is a good thing and having the desire to keep improving is a good thing. I love winning events and it's really not about winning, it's about winning. He's charming, but it's really about whether he plays well if you can put together a great performance and you're happy with your performance throughout the tournament. For me, that's where I'm really pleased with the win.
