women

's balls presented by Predator group and rs from Puerto Rico, we have another round robin match here between Kelly Fischer and Jesa Sanno. This match has big implications for the group's overall record. Kelly lost her first match and will need to win this one to advance to the final eight of the tournament.

Chesa won her first match. She can get the victory here. She will be almost guaranteed to move on to stage two. It promises to be a good match. Eric Corson here with Chris Reinhold thinking about this match. Chris, well, we saw it. They both play 10 balls against each other and I think it was a very very close match and I feel that Centenno has a slightly higher team, not even a ton, but I think this fair is more in their favor than tball in my opinion. I agree that Sno won the Las Vegas Winds Open racing right now.

For sure one of the most successful players of the last 15 years on the women's side is looking to the future there against a player with a lot of experience and a player who definitely knows how. to cross the finish line, yeah, two really great players and it's going to be an amazing match and I think the nine ball will come out, but we also saw Kelly put three racks together the other night so you can't fight back. It's to see who can jump over the other first, yes, I expect an offensive match. Sano starting from the right side of the table, with the ball down, a ball flying and well controlled.

Wow, Seven is the only thing we can get her here, how does this sound for starters? Eric Wing the ball a ball the ball may have been following there a little was kicked by another ball ended up in the middle ended up a little fun in the corner saved the jam there and watch how fast rye goes through these shelves both players play in a rhythm very high flash

fisher

name rapid fire look to really open up playing nine ball here will probably fall short of nine here, can't you imagine? or a little to the left and it will come where the place is, yes, even.

If you have a short rail angle off the ground that will work well, the only thing I have in this type of shot with newer cloths and balls is that sometimes you can be a little quick with this ball and it won't go all the way to five, but You do it very, very well, L that one minute, one down. He's really the filler equivalent of Joshua in my opinion for women, they had her ranked as one of the best since she was a teenager. It took him a few years to get really real. I remember going to the junior worlds in 2015 and she was there and I played exactly the same as her, like she does now and just watching her fly through the racks is just driving her crazy, her shot making power is just overwhelming for a lot of people. people, like you almost have to play the long game with her and slow things down, but once you get to the table it's hard to slow her down and we've seen it with her too, even when things are slowing down, she has more opportunities and just bounces off the opponent, yeah, I think when some deep misses or whatever can make people a little bit hesitant, she just stays confident and runs through the ball and it's pretty impressive to watch.

Corner ball that time, but the nine ball goes down and is placed on top. I think we are counting it in this format waiting for the balls to be stacked and two games here in less than five minutes are not going to break, it's just luck. but this kind of thing keeps happening with Centenno, yeah, gotta make sure those back balls are set to nine. Al she just travels down like this, can you hear me, she has to keep breaking from that spot, then the forehand had the side ball, the only ball. first rack and then nine balls on the CER R, you guys have to stick, that's her place now, yeah, even on the T ball, it seems like she prefers that side of the table that's a little easier to spread if are you left-handed.

That side has movement, no chance this time, so we'll see Fisher moving up on this rack, what are you pushing here? Eric somewhere on our short band do the nine and then leave it there well take off the 49 combo move it up swing on the bench if you return it for the nine yeah not much to be sure here would be a bench all -in down very quickly what a start to this match both players oh unlucky with the Q ball there The good news is that she can see both balls, but the bad news is that that's all she can see.

She really she can't see much more. What's your move here? Look at the table layout. Seven, no Seven, he's too close to the railing to get behind you immediately. Thinking about there not being enough space between the seven and the rail, try to cut it to cut it, yeah, I guess that will do as well as shown here of these two players in the first three racks, but when you see someone start. She was so strong on you, you know you have to respond, so I think it makes you a little less hesitant because you know you just have to suck up and Kelly's not afraid to respond, it's not at all an interesting challenge, a long race. between these two I'd love to see him, yeah, underneath, that one's still walking a little bit, okay, sideways, I'll just have to watch the ball a little more than he'd like, oh, have you ever cut it and this might match with Michael Hill Hill? both sides will only be there for 12 minutes, we will surely look for something offensive coming out of the break here, replicating a lightning bolt or senteno broke from the left side Eric, we are 10 minutes into the game and it is 2-1, how crazy is it that both fast players and Both They also see the difference between the nine ball and the 10 ball.

They move much less. The ball enters the break. This ball remains on the table after the break. That's Kelly's chance to try to run here. I don't remember who was playing when we did. They were commentating, but she played against someone who put a three on the right toach, yes, yes, on the toach, yes, she ran a three and still lost the match like crazy, as I mentioned before, this has big implications for Kelly advances and reaches the final eight of This Woman's. Showdown, she needs to win this match, it is very unlikely that she will score two down at half-time, you don't feel quite as you would like, you have a decision here, there is a sure kick from the long cushion, a difficult half ball to push because the one is close to the pocket I think the sure kick has value here Chris, yeah I wouldn't push her that's for sure wow she's not going anywhere she said your turn your turn oh my god kick the box strong also too close to the five to jump K will be able to go on these two rails as long as he can see enough beyond the five, there's room there, uhoh, now a big stroke of sentano TR to turn it on by any means, open the bridge here, a hard hit just triggers it like it's hard, that wide open. bridge is what I was going to say too.

I'm glad you said something about that. Wow, so many times when you use an open bridge on a power shot your tail appears, you know, it's just that you hit it a little bit, yeah, that's it. Very clean, it's easy to see why she is number two on the tour. Very entertaining game from both players here in the first four racks and Senten will have to break to close the set if he plays this in the corner, yes, a little straight here he can. simply secure the position, both players establish the ball until the moment, a safe exchange of kick, there Sano has the first opportunity playing a good Power Stroke on the first shot and comes out with another less than two minutes, surely there is left to make a billiards video game character. he just maximizes the ability to run and make balls, right kicks, left kicks, well, you know, he just checks every box.

No fear, usually when you get older you are a little more afraid because you know what can go wrong, that's right, just gain confidence to do the two on the break here, also made the one a couple of times just miss four flying, although enough of the one that I definitely ran towards the seven and felt like I could control the position moving towards the two, yeah, that weight transfer looked good. Like some others, CH we were watching the last game timing the break B, yes, for the bench, she will try this one. I think she and CH have the best breaks at this event.

Jasmine hits them hard too, finally, half of them. error there sitting Kelly doing her best this shelf to try to extend oh okay, kind of look on C's face when she approached the table like it was my turn to run away now she looks confident, yeah I guess who just weathered the storm and then getting his chance from the start of this pro snooker series, Kelly had a great run winning around four or five events, which became a bit more difficult now with a lot more players coming from Asia and also beat all these players several times.

The Field's strength is getting very deep now the recovery look at the angle here might have to pull back. com is difficult now as a type of save from a pocket type stfall and Q ball behind the eight, but that is very delicate leaving it out could reach it a little no. this several times by Sano doesn't really go to the extension it just goes to the bridge comfortable playing with it a bridge here you didn't finish in the first setris it surprises Miss de centano and when you play at that speed from time to time Although you are going to make unexpected mistakes and expected like that, but the advantage for her is so great, I recommend she slow down.

This is an incredibly fast match. Kelly was already in the shot basically before Cenno came back. They both decide they're going to shoot each other. Nintendo's nickname is Flash, rightly so, rapid fire in The Flash fighting fire with electricity during a big match. He has had a bad time so far this week in Las Vegas. failing to make the final 16 of the Las Vegas Women's Open with the longest finishes on that tour in almost an entire year. I would say that Gaina here also has to win this match to qualify for the second stage at half-time, there are the five of them.

I didn't reach a little bit to cenno, but I think he'll go for this one in the corner, a little too steep, yeah, I think it's a little thin. B whoever passes nine, go for five, look at this safe, there's a lot of coverage down there. the long rail doesn't seem available for Fisher, he will definitely go there. Short round, good kick and stick, maybe a good time for a double jump. You are so nice? I'm not, we wouldn't put anything, we wouldn't put anything. last, yes that's even better, pretty good, no, she doesn't go to the jump line very often and probably grew up in a better rotation, she believes a lot in her kicking ability, in the Philippines she will have the first chance to tackle to the first one here. com, moving to the five seems pretty safe, the safest play is to avoid the short side of the two keys.

The ball runs towards the four a little here, here, it could be running towards him squarely, not well done, a little weak, yes, lacking position, he will have to do it. He came up with something here moving towards the four, yeah, that was low, right, yeah, I thought he was going to draw, draw on two bands, maybe K, pretty straight forward, power goes into the pocket of the cutter, aim perfectly, It looks like she's going to play a power play. correct English here, wow, very good for this set, it's turning around in a minute, here I have a little rub on the nines, take the seven from the top right pocket, stay on top, Paul here, risking too much going into the n side is big on that track. s with a couple of chances to end the set she couldn't respond to Kelly's game, now H Hill and cenno have to feel like she should have won this set but hopefully for her she will get another chance at the next rag but she doesn't . guaranteed 7:00 Pacific we will have the winners' qualifying matches for the final 16 of the men's 10-ball world division this will be the last match of the day for the women three balls Miss for centenno none for fiser I the key wall a little there like five in the way of the angle for the only Good shot that contains sure here cutting the two to the right hand of Sentano tried to get into the two two rails I just can't hold on long uh-oh yeah, it was hard to hit that thin enough ball Hub Ball is going to run towards the eight here he might be able to get out of it if he does he has to hit the window between the 67 for the three play smart taking a harder cut on the three but guaranteeing the position you have to go, well, she has a much softer stretch angle than me, here she will have to go for extension, the rest, the rest, she brought it from home, she could actually have the way she rises on this ball, it is actually the bridge perfect to rise like this, she did it, she's on her break here, what a turn of events this rack has been, the lady confident in the two configurations, she got away with all this, looking at her tip like it was some kind of half mistake.

I think the right thing Ang just wasn't as effective as she thought, oh my gosh, how sweet was that shot on the railing also reminds me a lot of Jeffrey OSI, two guys likehitting the ball, you know, very fast acceleration, slow and fast backstroke style. acceleration but still gets the timing right in tenno take the first set here see elimination in the second set there is still a small chance if the players win one of three of their round robin matches if they could advance to the last eight but it's unlikely because two out of four players advance out of each group, so you would have to have a scenario where two players, I guess three players actually are tied in a match, each win at that point, it would all come down to to the tiebreaker.

The playoffs show a little fatigue and they play a lot. of pool this week he will be able to relax if he wins this guaranteed second set in stage two changing sides in The Brak he hits it well rewarded one ball down two balls there and that queue through The Brak I think It helped him a little bit with this power. Did you play all three in the bottom left pocket? You just messed us up. Yes. I think you have to play or I would play all three in the same pocket drawing very close to the wing.

She does not. There was nothing left in it at all, it was more of a stun rather than a close enough draw for all three to shoot with their extension as well. I feel like she's aiming for one spot on the tail and then this last one. Secondly, she went up a little more than when she was aiming, she got the Q ball behind the nine here, if she doesn't, the 47 will still help her, so focus 100% on the Q ball, here she went for the nine oh, in the worst case. there and she just laughs at it, never expect that to happen from that angle, it's one of those where you get close and look at the angle and say, well how did the qall get in?

Yeah yeah I think try to get two perfects there, but hindsight is 2020, here the power of this can't do anything in the future, ke Ball is going to hit the nine at full power here from centennial, probably a rail back Oh my goodness, how much Top Spin you have to get. on that ball to not stun from the angle, it's very misleading if the shot clock was like atat or verizon, where if you don't use it you can use it later, like pass minutes or something. CH, how many minutes do you think she? has almost all of them, yes, half a pocket in wow, great demonstration of q q power here will have to change course if it wants to stay in this PBS Mo Showdown, one of the strongest fields ever assembled tomorrow, it will be a kind of Last Judgment Day matches in the round-robin stages.

T she will be a great role model for the women's group in the Philippines and she is also a bit quiet, but I am sure that she will do everything she can to be the Ambassador of this sport. Yes, she seems like a very good person and very outgoing and obviously she has the ability to play to do whatever she wants. This time she will have to make the most of it. This looks pretty good. Yes, every opening you have from now on you have should be a statement made because you need to come into the shootout as a winner in two cushions for the four in the same pocket stop pattern here until the 98 until the 89 straighter on the six which you would have liked, but you'll accept the angle coming back towards the E, like going straight to the eight here and backtracking or just living angle across um.

I wouldn't mind just getting to where she got, they hit him just as hard this way. strong rft from fiser L at night they score one each only 50/50 at the edge see kenno up to 80% only one lost ball from fiser still couldn't win the first set a little low on safety efficiency 50% for Fisher 75% for rye table time for both players both tables about 50% of the time one ball flies nine ball almost goes two balls look like they could line up for a combo she has enough of the one here um it's hard to navigate because the ball C she's frozen on the rail so it makes the bench a little bit harder if she wanted to bench it what I think she can do is put the whole ball in maybe not because I do think if she could have seen the ball she would have already Been down, yeah, taking. a little bit of time here maybe just getting ready for a big shot in the match, don't stay behind the five, get inside, not there if he's going to try a 29 jump combo if you kick the ra side with a draw.

Can you drag the rear end far enough toward the middle? I think you can hit this with your left. We have a kind of dough a little inside to make the carum. Yeah, let's see if she shoots. I guess she will, but you never know. These types of strange designs are not as easy as they seem. You'd prefer all nine of them to be a little closer to the railing. Here you will have to capture the correct angle of the two. Sano will regain the lead in the second set. be breaking in on rack number four AR I think we're only 33 minutes into this match, yeah, fast paced match here and Way Hill, first set, 10 games played in 30 minutes, it's all been a high quality group.

The Elite level group doesn't fall exactly where she does. I probably would have wanted too aggressive in a three ball combo here is what you're thinking Chris I think we're not thinking as aggressive as she might be close enough to the five to be able to control where the five goes. a reasonably aligned two-way element where the three-ball combo from the T table could appear. I wouldn't overlook it, she can definitely get here, wait until it's hard to judge, yes, she ended up safe, best roll for fiser. here and what is your plan of attack here I sure don't see it yet you can cross the one in the middle and try to play the CQ ball behind the four 3 four there is a big wall there you would have to play with a lot of right spin it is the ceiling safer, but we are less likely to get real coverage on that shot.

Centenno will definitely go after the 3 four here, one is betting on the eight bit. I think I'm just going to attack Mo, I might even bank this. ball and try to pass the QQ ball to the two. I think she's doing what you say with that shot. They are the ones who play close to the eight. I think you could bank it. I could cut the one behind the 3. Four. well swing the Q ball around three cushions hello nine ball was that roll it's hard to fiser again I can see just hanging your head knowing you're in a tough spot now uhoh didn't you get there yeah it's so easy to fall short on that when You're hitting a thick ball and hitting several rails, you feel it wraps securely here, use the four as a blocker, she might have sold the ball there a little to the left, the English M around a little, maybe she has to continue to the right. side here it is difficult to get cover by going up the table would you object to Jump this bit too difficult for me to land right on it and try to place the Q ball just above the nine ball above the safe return much above there was space? behind the seven, which was a good try, he advances and does it wow, the best roll of the eight to put fiser in a bad place here the C Ball cover will expand too much if he goes before the side pockets, so he will try a jump aggressive here not aggressive when it comes to doing wow things just don't seem to be going her way in this match yeah look what happened there.

I think she got the point and the key a little bit. Wall came out wider than he could have. at the point And yeah, yeah, well I was actually thinking she was going to go to the other side, but yeah, I just caught a weird part of the railing, there she changes the angle, oh rye, doing what she does, a beautiful hit, there will be a tour. All in all, Fiser really needs this match. Very little chance of advancing if he doesn't win it. So 3-1 cent in the second set, he won the first set 43 looking to close it out in this next disaster.

Wow, the train. fans are definitely getting more than what they paid for. I'll tell you yeah, you're always fine with Santano, a very entertaining player, see if Kelly can dig deep and have a shot at the next trick, but it seems like with the way Ceno is playing you just have to wait for her to make a mistake, just talk to tell, well you know, when a player plays that fast against you too and is actually executing it correctly, it's intimidating to a certain extent, he just puts the initiative. about the other player, yeah, it sure puts pressure on them and you have to do something to derail that confidence that they have and if they keep running it's hard to do that and I thought the turn was that Miss Seven ball that she overcut to the top left corner, but then she went back down and made another difficult shot the next time she had the chance, so there's no reconfirmation that she should be nervous or scared, so why would she continue? doing what he does right flying there three balls down oh oh wow wow Wing ball, one ball looks like he'll have to play a combo on the 46 here only he could trip her on this stand at such speed every time he hits the ball that No?

I've never seen her slow down once. Here it goes again, another breakout run with Pace very quickly. Fisher will still have a small chance of making it to the final eight, but she will definitely have to win her last match and be hopeful. some things will go right in your group tomorrow oh wow, this totally unexpected miss from Sano, Fisher alive, Kelly is as surprised as we are, she might have had a problem in line, wouldn't it be something if this ends in a shootout later ? Mind you, two more will be bre six here, wow, look, I wonder if that's something she'll seem to lose confidence over or if he'll just get back on the chair and I don't think she'll lose confidence.

I think the question for her is: are you going to continue to play like this over the years and just trust yourself? Run Outs will come quickly and that's a very powerful weapon for you, which it definitely is, but I think you know every match. she plays, there's probably one or two shots like that and you have to start thinking hard about whether the others are going in because she's not really thinking about the ball and she's just playing by intuition and is that more value or is there more value in just laying off a little bit, I mean, the reason he missed that is because he's trying to cheat the pocketbook, probably in some way to get a little better at ethics, but just little things like that, you know if there's anything at all. about his game that you can look up to go over a little bit, think about how to stop those easy mistakes, no less for Fisher, healthy here, let's take a look at kicking the one, yeah, the thing is too much, you get to a point.

When you play enough snooker you realize the points where you need to slow down a little, I'm sure you know that, so we both thought she got a little weird on the seven. I think she thought that too, but she didn't take the extra. It's time to stop properly, so exactly, maybe it's not a whole thing where she's, you know, slower all over the place, she might be slower in some shots that she feels a little weird about, you know, Definitely just pull yourself together and then come back in. shot, so yeah, I like what you're saying about correct recomposition, she only has one speed, yes, but certain shots, even if they don't seem difficult or you have to trick the pocket or manipulate the cube a little, it's taking the extra might only take 5 seconds for her with the extra 5 seconds at some points, yes I mean Joshua Filler, he plays with his pacing where he starts off a little more deliberate and then works on it once he feels it completely right.

I agree, so I think maybe that's the next step for her, even though she's already so amazing. I think maybe that could be the next step in her game and help her evolve a little bit to where she can be unstoppable and I feel like filler. she's slowed down, she's slowed down a little bit in the last year, yeah, sure, especially in the easier openings where she has an easy way out. She's going to take a little more time today and she's just going to make sure she's headed in the right direction. side of the ball, you know, those kinds of things are very difficult.

Fiser Sanno's miss will get her second chance to win the set here, no, but also sometimes your best reflections come after losses and Sano really doesn't reserve many, many. losses, it's hard to want to know that you change your game if you're winning all the time, right? Do you know which axis she plays with? He is a predator. It seems like a 3143 could be an advantage. I wonder if it's a Z axis because she looks quite thin, you can see, look how she's checking her angle now for that half a second, it could mean a lot, you know, oh how perfect is that, well, we've just been treated to a high octane pool here, rye, coming out the winner.

B sure she will. I'll have to fight back tomorrow I have a little angle here just change hands no big deal change hands with the best right handed mechanic how does this make sense? how perfect is that another big rye match and we will be I will see more of her this week wow wow wow I have one more round coming switch to table two there will be some action for you there right now for Chris Reinhold this is Eric Orlon talk to you See you soon have a good night and uh tune in next time what shot what shot what a
