US Open Rewind: James Aranas vs Thorsten Hohmann

time 9-ball world champion, one of only three players to win the 9-ball world championship twice, so he has to play it safe, but he left it on, let's see what he has spiders in his bag here, yeah, this one It's a good long,

open

shot. for aratus it doesn't take time as he just floats to be throwing the last time you saw him with a pocket Ted the same way you shoot him Karl when we are in the heart the pocket Ted don't be stupid so the five balls will cause a little of concern, it's not a total hunger, this distance between the cue ball and the ball he's hitting and also his distance between the 5 and the 8, you know I needed a little more care for me, that wasn't hunger.

Hunger is what we are referring to. like a very, very easy shot, something Ted would probably take advantage of, thanks. Matt Edwards had a good run here at the US Open. He had a good run a few weeks ago at the Masters. He slightly improved his game. Yes, his girlfriend too. She had Ralph. The suit is well tied at five-five at one point, so the mistake combo around us was giving the hip man this first golden opportunity and I think it's fair to say that the players had no time in the table now and were on day three, so these quality matchups are yet to come. thick and fast Corey Jewell, the Prince of Poole, former US Open champion, was eliminated in the sixth losers round, he is a fatu skier from Poland, he is a dangerous player, well, the Polish team is having some success here in the US Open, as Holman awards first place.

James Spiders of the Philippines missed five balls and it is not surprising to see the Polish contingent doing well. They have a great program in Poland. Poole is a very popular sport, it gets support from the government and that's always a good thing, as you know. Carl, because you received no support from your government, absolutely zero, it all came out of my own pockets, look at that shot right there since he was tortured, I tied him with Chang Jim Lynn and he is excited, sad, you are so excited today that you have been awake, I mean. that's a reason to get excited and do a combo on the 9 like that.

Doomsday really excites Ted and there's Mike Dechaine, he didn't play his best pool on the arena table, we've seen once or twice it looks like he's trying. To give him his number, I'm not sure if he will be successful there, he is working on Dorsen at home and we will keep you posted on that Chang June Lin match, it is a very interesting development and would be a bit annoying. to see Chang come out but they're tied at 9 there he's one and two down one kicked by the three but there's no clear shot to the three yeah I'd expect Austin to be one of these types of players that fall into that top group of fantastic ball breaker to be honest, pretty good safety shot there too, such a strong start to Hitman, oh right, mm-hmm, that's a poor effort from James spiders who might have trouble settling here on the TV table ,Tylar.

Stiers is still alive with an eleven eight win over Chris Alexander who exits the tournament, yes he doesn't see James play much and likes to keep going so expect this to be a pretty quick match, apparently Chiang is falling behind as which is behind five three. Well, the only other Filipino who is undefeated, the only Filipino who is undefeated right now is Geoffrey de Luna, who will appear in a little while, they will play Luo hai Tao. This is a nice speed check by Torsten, who comes rounding up a couple of rails for one right behind this eight shot up those types of shots are unmissable on a nine ball tool table, so 2-0, like we call them, he has another one on the board, so two errors for Iran and the United States and two points for Roman. that's how it normally works in nine balls, one mistake usually means doom on the rack, so here we are tied, changjun lune and marko torture tortures on the table, yeah, it's a close match there, you could feel the tension, it just ha moved up a level. the arena we are approaching crucial matches now it's time to make or break who will make it to the final 16 three Americans are undefeated Denis hatch will face Shane van boning is not a figure of I'm boning a big favorite in that one, but hatch me I think he's just having fun here and that's always a dangerous opponent when a guy is maybe playing without a care in the world.

Oh, and good security against torture and misdeeds from Changjun Lind. Yes, a big race is coming up. I mean, let's hit. mines break, a ball disappears and I think you can get to the edge of the - it's very tight as there are a couple of drops. Is there a space? Do you have to kick the top rail? Keeping the cue ball there beyond the eight if you're kicking, no. I could see it so this works well the speed also looks good now shot there from the toaster Matus Nagurski at five past nine on david lkd the champion whirlpool master, Homan's compatriot, the great Ralph his k 6 a 5 on his obayashi from Japan, you see a repetition of the four ball very well done throughout the table, so he has also deposited the five on the side and at home and is on his way to taking a dominant three and will lead down, do you?

Are you sure that's causing too many problems? Roman hype low man on a mission, he has finished on the left side of the group in the 7th round, no more chewy threads, so the moment she doesn't look good for the Filipinos, Ted, well we have Geoffrey Ignacio, we will be facing Yang Cheng Jun, the veteran, so this is a big shot coming up for Marco, he knows he is playing against one of the four best players in the world and it is tied 9-9, this is a bit weak, it's all about rhythm, you can tell by his body language, he's really in the zone.

Concentrated on the task at hand, looking may be fine, it depends on how far the eight balls run, it's pretty hard to see from there, but my gut tells me it's good enough, so it looks like it's going to make it to the hill in such a big place. moments, so he appears at the round table, where is the white ball? Looks pretty good, yeah, that's good enough, you know that was a good shot, well, when Dorstein gets going, he can be very intimidating, two-time world 9-ball champion, world snooker champion. and torture on the hill against the land of Changjun breaking by surprise they see again the tour stands break pockets in a single ball, so certain players have this break until the end all the players are fighting, well, the James' rawness could soon drop to zero.

Is he trying to pocket the nine or is the arm just making sure the four and five balls are above the pocket, yeah you were just making sure he stopped the cue ball exactly where the nine was, while I was a useful shot, they say. that countryman of Jeffrey Ignacio Ronis for zero in yanqing sure Torsten appears on the Apple website but no one calls you thanks Torsten has always had the latest high tech device that I know a lot of people have, but I'm sure it's the last one I also think Dorstein maybe logs more miles than any player in the world, guys who travel constantly, yeah I don't think he makes it like a house, I think he just travels the world, isn't he one of the few players that Do you really earn a decent living? the world of billiards is difficult to become a professional now Marco tortures, you can see, just excited, can't you see the one, yes, two balls?

I think the two balls will be five balls in an original place so we can see the one and I think he is in the big moments, his best positional shot, even the cue ball, my car, the player who likes to take his time, be sure to get back in the action though hitman, yeah we'll keep you updated. In that match between Tortura and Changjun Lin, this Torture tries to shut down the big Taiwanese for the big upset, so the biggest problem on this rack would be the six ball, if he lands low on this three ball on his next shot, you can possibly break them .

Go out and

open

the rack or it depends on where the cue ball comes out of this shot, that's what you're trying to do and I think you're in a good place here so you'd love to just move the right side of the 9 ball. Now I'm just going to move towards the left cue ball, it will come in the middle of the table and we will open the six up, we will hit the wrong ball, won't we? So now he left a fine shot on these four balls, well, that was well done at the time. gets a round of applause from the crowd here around our TV table and this match is slowly but surely moving away from James or us like back in I was Alicia Littles in a little bit of light at the end of the tunnel for James. spiders here with that shot we are positional play by omen are you still trying to cook this ball?

This is super thin, was I just trying to break the edge? Well, I can't believe I'm over Katya. It's pretty unbelievable, such poor positional play on that. The seven ball has brought Iran back to the table and just in time Ivo would have been a very big hole to get out of the wealth that almost went wrong there's a lot of sauce it's not there at the moment there's no yes, well that's it. Not at all, it is the first time that he appears on the television table, whatever it is on this television table or on one now in favor of Holman, but it will be a break, let's see if we can inform him about the torture of Changjun Lynne and Marco, here we are. a torture on the table, he will always only have a few balls left, will he be able to cross the space? he should be able to know what they did to him in this match, it was the white ball that will end here, you can only tell Carl. the way he walks around the table his whole body language is just focused and focused and well he should be this is shaping up to be a big upset here at the US Open yeah I'm sure the other bigs when the news comes with that chang-jung victory, he is out of the tournament, it is great news and he has done it, he has won eleven nine Marco tortures lives for one more round here at the US Open and changjun Lin is out, so congratulations to Marko, torture.

He has to prepare to play another game, he will have to have a few more. There you see James Arañas, his path to this point in this losing side match here at the US Open slightly overdrawn the cue ball, so now he's going to have to travel a little bit with his cue ball to get to the five he needs to miss the nine ball and he has, so now a shot back to our position just when we thought the game was slipping away from him like that, just like that, it's back Carl the rhythm He plays that this could.

He has the ability to close the gap very quickly. Yes, we have chosen a good match to comment on here. Ted, I love it. Surely now that he is calm and installed here on the television table, it is not easy to leave. Not here, maybe millions of people around the world are watching you and of course the young man really wants to show what he does. He has Bright Futures, one of the best young Filipino billiards players, and there you see the route he took and won his first match. but then he lost his second so he won four in a row from the losing side to stay alive so today it's a wall to wall bracket at the highest levels all day long and we hope you're enjoying this stream on live and free of the US Open 9- The ball championship Facebook page one ended up in a funny position that is actually a dry break so he will be at home on the table, yes this is a tricky place , he is here.

I think you can play a cross bench because one ball is touched. the rail, that makes it harder the ball that is just outside the rail and that he sometimes shoots if he can avoid the double kiss, that's what he tried, but he got a double kiss and the cue ball, well, it's been very, very lucky here, it has to be He said it ma'am, look on tour from Stern's side at the moment, well, unfortunately for him, he left it to Torsten when he can go up from 8 to 3 in simming chen. Well David lkt has returned to Shanna got to ski, that score is Ashna got to ski 9 8 at the moment and curry kerub Yoshi has surpassed Ralph, okay, but it's difficult.

The Japanese lead the great German Ralph his K 8 to 7 which was fine, right there from Boston he made another one, what a room forever, very delicate shot there, kind of angles he got because the orange five ball was on top of the table, so you need to be low on this, I think it's okay because it comes this way, which always gives the game away a little bit. On day three, the Europeans come thick and fast, it must be said through these losers. Round number six, many Europeans won their matches and led, and with Moscow and him cooking up points on the line, plus this title, it's a great day, we have to be impressed.

Carl with Joshua Fillers eleven, three wins over Alexander Kazakh s-- Filler. the reigning nine-ball world champion and simply a player of true talent for sure who hasn't even reached the peak of that talent. I think Filler has what it takes to win this event, yes, without a doubt, and he can achieve a double at the US Open. in the world nine-ball championship, he is fine, then Marco tortures, he just defeated Chang-geun Linin a big surprise here on the losing side of the group and let's have a word with you now, too two wins away from being in the bottom sixteen things.

I'm getting serious now just focus on me I just want to enjoy it and I just want to keep focusing and being the best and that's all you can do great everything that's happening right now on table one you know those two, do you know? what's happening? their game, do you think they are informed by what you have seen? So good, they are in the tournament, yes, great players. I mean, I know James from the money games he plays in the United States, so he's playing a lot. games these days, so they are both great players and it will definitely be a good match, yeah, well, let's get back to it, then we better let you go, Marco, because you're up at three o'clock, so good luck. for that and well done, we are so far from the Cowboys and Ted only separated himself from Dorstein Holman with the lead of 5-2, so that is what brought James Iran-Us to the table here with a shot at the one as we head towards the final. 16 which will start tomorrow that is the knockout phaseUnfortunately it will no longer be free on Facebook except in countries where it exists, this event will not be broadcast on regular television but will be seen in over 100 countries around the world so hopefully you can watch it because Be special, a lot of pressure and drama, and if you want to know what it's like to play under that kind of pressure, ask my buddy, Carl, the box office guys, send him a message, ask him what it's like, so toast to a omen that he is back on the table only five balls left in two days healthy leader Carl when you reached the final in 2015 it is true that you had not played much before that not really not, but I have never been so played I went to many events somewhat just like we said before the toast and it always seems to be a tornado, doesn't it for everyone?

Yes, I saw it coming and going, it didn't go away for a few months and I was never a big practitioner because of where I lived. really plays the game and I always found it a little lonely and sometimes I felt down with the game and you know, using the Kanchana rack, you know, like Neal's fire. I know he practices a lot alone, but I just didn't enjoy it. oh I always enjoy being around people that I loved when I went to the event practicing with people in the tournaments and things that makes it already six so far and the favorite Torsten very well done so how did you manage to light a fire if you really hadn't made?

I haven't been on the tour like you know a lot of these guys and that's what we normally think of a player that comes to a tournament like the US Open and you have to have been there doing your thing week in and week out and Well I guess that you can make your way into a pool tournament Mathy, you know you can come here, obviously there are guys that are going to come here with a lot of confidence because they've done well in previous events or that, you know, Dennis Hatch said. himself is that a year off is making a living playing and he is in the winner's qualifying round.

Certain players can probably get away with it a little more than others. Some people, after practicing like crazy, will find this game easier than players, so I was. one of them where he could always play Wayne - it's a decoration and there you see three wins and then a loss to deal with fragment 1110 and that led Thorsten to the losing side of the group where he now leads six to two over James Iran. We're still going to have to have a few more matches for Thorsten if he wants, if he gets through this one, if he wants to get to the last 16, so it's another dry break, so the last two or three breaks have been lost, so James is back at the table, you know Dennis Hatch is going to play Shane Van Boning, he's a prohibitive underdog in that match, but again, when you come in without the pressure like Dennis Hatch and say you're playing to get into the tournament, anything is It's possible, yes, Dennis just has a high speed in this game and when we say that someone has a high speed, he can really go to one in a match and execute a lot of racks with a cannon in a very short time and I'm not so sure about the force. and I'll be playing this shot, no, it's going straight back, look what James is going to do here, he's kick off the bottom rail, well, I feel like that's a little bit, it's kind of half a hope of success, like that What are you doing, Tet? on a Friday night, you've arrived on a Thursday night, there's always hope, but this time it worked out well for James because I think he hooked his hip, quick update, stitching Chen, he's known for Dow vs.

Wang, the camera is about to run. came to an end on the left side of the draw in the sixth round Sheena got the hill against Al KT ten eight now yes, the suitcase Ralph follows 97 to toro kura for a her from Japan oh, I said our store was the white ball that I was going even if it was dry and it makes the overnight stay it's a good fin boat, no, that's well done, screw the ball after the boat is positioned for the red 3 and this is a fundamental shelf here while Thorsten looks at the number seven on his scorecard which would put him in Vista of the magic number of 11 to continue here at the US Open for the Filipinos in the sixth round and having already been eliminated by Yan Chua Denisov Colo and of course James Spiders is 6 down , but Jeffrey Ignacio leads Ching Chung yang. 6-3 so it's flying the flag in the 6th round, the Filipinos drop like dead flies and that's why due to poor safety shots only Geoffrey de Luna is in the winners qualifying rounds after this round, there might only be two Filipinos left in Well, Alex Pag. you, lion, on the winning side, he is Filipino but has lived in Canada for the last twenty-five years, a little better, should we give him the Filipino tiger?

Well he is included under the Canadian flag, well let's just say three are done just to make him look bad for Phillipa. Jim White, she's happy about that, so Torsten misses that three right there. He got away with it? You may know that James spiders can see that this is a lovely effort, yes, it will work. Good shot, laughing James, well this might just be in the Just in Time because it will be difficult to come back from 7-2 down, but six threes is a big difference. Also, just in Rama the flag was raised for Imran's English players, the Maharaja is in the winners' standings, so he won't get two lives anyway. the only English player to come out of this year's US Open, surprise, that's what happened to you guys, you guys used to dominate snooker, well look, that's your chain, that's not good.

Wow, so much has gone there. How is this? Paul, stay, don't look at this. Wow. I can come? Well it's like half the balls on the spread of the board called yes it says you're right the English players used to dominate a lot of events or they used to have a lot of players playing but we're all slowly retiring and I thought there's not one that comes from England, well James, he's honest, he's having an absolute surprise on center court today, it has to be said, well, he should have already had it at 6-3, so if he loses this rack, this could be quite demoralizing for the young man.

Torsten was well done and jerked off and now on hill ten-four on the simulation chin, so it looks like Simmons' career here at the US Open will come to an end and soon Torsten will return home and advance to along 7 2 now for Holman twice. 9 ball world champion pool world champion, there you see, Wang can, very good player from China, spends a lot of time in the United States traveling playing in tournaments, money games, now she is semi chen, fantastic room, has to be sad, well, the Chinese. The contingent is doing well so far whoo cha-ching, two-time world champion, still in the winter side.

Luo hai Tao still on the winter side and you have Wang, you can hear who seems to be going through this would be a losing side match. Yeah, she's not done with that. She returns to the feature that matches Hitman. Yes, the brakes may have been a little lacking as much to reference, so there is definitely a skill in this brake shop. You have to find the right point where I was a little bit. Gordo, you could see that the cue ball did not cross the side rail and one ball went high in the left center, so there is definitely a skill in this brake shop, of course, we are using precision this year that will surely make all their balls touch.

Ted, that's right, that's great, Carl, just thank you for that, when the balls touch, everyone is happy in the pool world. Well, there was a mother who didn't beat James around us. Her soul is going wrong. Yes, this is moving away from him quickly. We know that Torsten returns home and feeds on the tribulations of the young Filipino Matus Nagurski of Poland defeats David Al Qaeda Al Cady outside the US Open Nagurski moves with evil tricks another solid player from the Netherlands is still alive leading 86 / Cheng Chi Lu from Taiwan in a losing side match Jeffery Ignacio 8-3 up over yang Ching Chung Tiler styie has moved on to the next round eliminating Chris Alexander Chris from New Jersey has had a pretty good tournament to refer well yeah I talked to him several times On this trip, you can pat yourself in the sixth final round of the US Open, it is no small feat.

Ted swimming. Chen there, avoiding defeat for the moment. Well, this confrontation here is over. Holmen has a lot to do. James is giving a lot of opportunities and you. just keep cleaning up the mistakes Tec, there is a player we haven't talked much about, the losers, Dan Jin from China II keeps doing a tremendous Q action, that tremendous guy, he is known as Tang Jing, which is his last name, but he is a great player member of the Chinese national team at home and now up to 8 in full control here James spiders, okay, it has been a nightmare for him in his debut on the TV table and this is a nightmare for Siming Janice, She scratches the brake, yeah, I wasn't looking. the cue ball is kicked to the rail, you see you don't quite do that in this game and what a bad time for that to happen a counting ball in your hand seven balls all out in the open, you'd think it was going to be a last chance at this year's championship toruk curry goodbye ashie and ralph are fine trading blows at one of our outside tables nine to eight in favor of chef Tohru's check eight to five over Kenny choo-choo gawky from Japan and Ignacio is nine to three more yang Cheng Jun, so Thorsten changes in the brake shop, but the match stories come with units that I want to test the brakes in this match and continue to lead and he is leading eight;

That just shows how much James hasn't been in the races in this game. but he has a good chance now that all the balls are good, so come on James, let's find something. Sorry, the match so far Tet Wow, you got lucky, yes you got lucky, but he's still very worried about James, he's clearly not feeling well, remember the loser. of this non-event match, the winner moves on believing that we will still need two more matches to reach the final 16. You might like to follow along with the live score on Facebook. Check out the Q score.

See you around. EQ score. Thanking. It's cold, where we have our score live streaming, we had it on the Q Score website before, but we had some technical issues, so we managed to post it on the Q Score Facebook page. Well, Torsten is just going up in this set of kick shots. Look. the planes that came out in the sixth round because why Appleton came out, catch him or color the wing thread of chang-jung Chua has become a quarry gem Alkaid one of those guys could have broken this ripped off, that's a soldier Now what is happening here?

Wayne something wrong. There are no Jensen rings that are still strong. Hello, hey, it's a winter vacation format. She's certainly capable of putting some packages together, as we like to say, it would be something if the simulation could return. She received praise from everyone who really admired her talent and her skill level, excellent fundamentals of her. Ralphy's suitcase tied her at 9:00 with curry, bye, ashie, yes, this is how much James and wants to forget about Walter, so Torsten has left some distance, this is not like that. an easy pot when you were having a mare, come on James, oh okay, something and he's done the six by himself, a good shot, he'll surely beat this nice Rach crowd that's there watching Chen Zhiming and jacking off, and she It really attracts many. attention so

james

spiders get one back eight to three now he'll be breaking into the next rack there you go ten six and she's got a good shot at this well said rampage so all she can do is keep trying to beat the rack to the maybe and keep the pressure on a camp well, maybe Wang can feel the pressure because when we were here at this table about 10 minutes ago it looked like he was about to run out, he had a table apparently open.

The next thing we know, she comes back and it's Simming Chen who won the rack, so it's at that point in the match where the favorite starts to feel like it could all be wasted. It can happen especially in a winter break format, so James, can you put a few racks together just to give your opponenthe is lucky that a ball hit the cue ball, that is what set up this shot, he is taking out the bridge, yes there is a lot of Danger in this shot because he has a can't roll this, so the cue ball is coming towards the table and if he plays it, we turn and hit just above the center pocket and the eight ball comes. in play so he can hold on this he's tried to hold on he has to keep going I think he's in this you know if he is it's a brilliant shot you could see the one ball that had just fallen didn't have much there's room for error there, whereas our top chamber looks like you can open this extension called if he's straight, he can back up to the bottom rail, she can use her indies hat, I think the white balls go right back to wherever you had this there. you see the cue ball needs to slow down this looks like god so he's in the middle all over the top he'll play this on the top left ted these balls are placed perfect you know there are wars in this match we see this kind of stuff usually at an outside table, it's very unusual to see him at the gaming table, this is story in the making about Marco's torture picking up where he left off against Changjun Lin, it's at zero in gangjin, who Ted about 30 minutes ago did you believe what would we be? this situation no there were no signs or indications that James spiders would catch a gear like this he was having a shocking afternoon here at Mandalay Bay is the white ball from the room he landed shorts they say you know this is thinner than so it looks like the good news is that the nine balls are in a position where he can focus on the pot, but he's a good foot away from where he wanted to be, so we'll toast and go back to the table on this shelf that he wants, he has made it judged. it's super blurry

james

spiders is about to go up the hill eight two down wins eight reps on the spit this young man is showing some ten to eight skills now stacking up in a row we call it an eight pack and orsten holman has stayed stuck in his chair for over 30 minutes hasn't even played a shot, yeah not so sure if the crowd knows what's going on here.

I wish I had heard a few more screams and screams, not just a good clap when you walk into the arena, that's what happens, oh yeah, women faint and men scream because you owe money, we're having fun here on the third day, what thoughts I want to have there. Wow, yes, we would like to welcome all of our fans watching. All over the world this is live and it's free and we hope you enjoy the action as much as we enjoyed it. This has been a really fascinating match here because Germany's Dorstein Holman, the three-time world champion, was on top. 8 to 2 cruiser James spiders has made 8 racks in a row the 5 ball has come to the rescue unless James around us comes with an exhibition shot Boston should get back to the table hey Ted, can I see Marcus Shemot provoking the European chef captain Mosconi .

He's in Las Vegas. He will be controlling his European players and keeping an eye on them, so the push, I think the door short stone wants to shoot, so this is an unknown sight. for staying at the table, well he gives up, he didn't like what was presented to him, yes the loser of this match will be out of the tournament tomorrow, we start the round of 16 live on Sky Sports in the UK and you can watch it too . live in the area in the US you can just register in the area it's very cheap to register so you get your money's worth there so James spiders plays as a poor safety and Thorsten had 8 minutes to walk and return to the table at 10 8. below you have a figure, Karl, would you have experience with this when you sit there for so long, what happens to the arm?

Well, I mean, it's not so much the arm that he's going to have trouble with, it's that you're probably going to have to try to get it. When you read the fact that you had eight years of love, you thought you were in the next round, everything was going your way, your opponent was having a surprise and then you sat back and watched him put together a package and now he's on the Hill and he's doing it. you've won the last three, but if this has been the kind of match where the racks came and went for the standard, you keep thinking, well, you know I'm still in this match, so you have to try. and he thinks like this because obviously if he wins this rack will break and he will only be one behind, so it's all the mental side of the game now, this is between the years at full strength and all with Jay, loud applause from the crowd, George Tatelman gets a package, yes, we. got our first rune from the crowd for lack of its own well, this will be quite appropriate just to take a break.

I'm going to go, he, he, that's all we want, we want Hill Hill action 10 to 9 now in favor of James Arana, so Dorset in Holman must play a perfect group here can't afford any mistakes, everything is at stake here the winner continues today in the double elimination groups on the losing side and still has a chance to reach the final 16, of course. the loser is gone, they see John coping in the distance, he's playing with Alex pays lion, good crowd available here at the US Open 9-Ball Championship in Las Vegas, so Torsten comes home and now guts forced 10 9 it's breaking oh, the right one just failed. ball falling oh, that's it, oh, that's tragic, look at the clock, the only ball, oh just now, the one that's on and looks like it has an angle to lift it onto the table for the two dozen lundi beyond the night, it seems like he may be lucky, yes, the pass, the pass, helped him a lot, that dry break from Dorson that is similar to several other racks at the beginning of the match.

He had a little difficulty with the break shot, but really the story of the match is this. A young man here, James Iran-Us, 26, from the Philippines, fell eight two and strung eight racks in a row without allowing tourists to enter the house and get up from his chair. Sad. I think it's fair to say that if you hit these five balls, it's been a championship performance so far, let's not forget that at the beginning of that career James Spiders got a little lucky, he missed the ball into a different pocket than the one he was shooting at and that allowed him to continue his cold career potential, yes.

I just wanted a little bit of forehand on this six, so you're just looking to see if you leave the cue ball and in that area you can cut this seven ball now we could go back for the seven in the other corner, bottom right corner, but the reason why I wanted to do that because the strain on the back is very difficult to back up and land in an area with such a stride that it landed a little timid, but it's not that bad, this is a tester, although considering the circumstances, yes, the ball eight will go to nine. the same pocket, so he has pocket options here, so rule number one taught him seven no and he's missed this.

It looks like he hit it at a good speed. Karl had just moved in the jaws. That's why we love this game. Well, we're gone. should be headed for a hill thriller, this is why many of the top pros in recent years have been asking for tighter pockets because the glitches in the game create drama twenty years ago when they played in five inch pockets that the ball would have. I felt like James would have passed, but we want drama. Ted is three balls away from advancing in the US Open and perhaps misses the seven-ball gate by half a millimeter.

Holman will break to win, what a turn of events, you know? your aunt is going to win the US Open, well that's a fair point, but what I will say is that James around us has had the opportunity to win this match, sometimes you don't get the chance. Ted, both players called a timeout and headed to the men's tournament. In this room, folks, is what 9 Ball Pool is about high class drama as we watch the lion at the table following 2 to Cole, ping Chun, some other scores, for example Schewe, fill three to one in the flight of Alban Ocean Neal looking to add the US Open to his illustrious resume leading three nil over Singapore's Aloisius Yap, his fellow Dutch torturer three one up Dang Jing, who and Tyler Steyr continue to impress these to nil over Roman Hubler and It's been a good day for me, s Co, for Toon Ski. from Poland, now take Ralph his ke a de nil, don't forget people will come right after this match, defending champion Jason Shaw will play Petri makanan from Finland.

Now there is a moment, what is the tete at 10:10 like? It's an interesting time to take a timeout maybe Tristan really had to leave, but usually when you're coming back like that you don't want to break the vibe and the rhythm in the arena, so the liar is about to square up this match for the players return to our On the television table, the balls are already placed on the shelf, so it will be Torsten Holman, there are 10 each. The winner of this rack will continue in the US. Adnan Volchok and the loser are out. How about a little high-five between Torsten and James?

The public loves it, so here we go. Yes, the public got fully involved in this match. This is what they like. We all love the Hill Hill drama. Ted. We could just have the best seat in the house 8ball ruined the party looked like he was going to have a chance with one ball but of course he was never going to inhale he won't you would have loved to have an easy chance with the other one where you push for this is a very difficult push, obviously he can't push and leave a pot because it will be game over, so Karl, what do you do?

What are you thinking in terms of the push? Why did that eight ball come out? the wood overcame it, okay, what's next? Well, it took me about three minutes to get over it, so he's thinking about playing with a chunk, I'll call him and a bad option would be to play that he could play with the ball from two wings and try it. and block it behind them and then leave a kicker in one, then at least you'll have a little security later on the rack, if that can be achieved, maybe not a bad option, he's making a full jump shot, You know, and this is dangerous.

This is dangerous, I guess he's made a full jump, but there's no eight ball in the way, well, I guess not, because where you kick safely, he should be able to pop this full ball, now, do it, what's going to happen? do? try to do it here he is going to stomp on a full time job and get the cue ball past the 8 and 7 well he goes with the jump queue players can close this by jumping on the ball and stepping back standing in order to do this you have You have to use the full length of the jump so you can see Torsten, that's a full length jump to see how the cue ball is trying to remove it.

Varney is that, da Ted, so you called the eight ball close, but I'm sure I could have said I didn't really like the push, to be honest, it was a very, very dangerous push, so you think I could having separated it because it seemed like you already know where we are. standing here, that the eight was in the way, no, I know, but why would he push to leave an edge of a ball? I know what he's saying so we're worse, I thought he seemed tight but I think he was trying to draw. the cue ball back and I think what happened is he got to the right and spun on it so the cue ball deflected a little bit and hit the edge of the eight bullet, it was the push shot.

I think I could have pushed to the right side of the table and just left half the ball sticking out, but it is what it is, it's Hill Hill and it's your decision at the end of the day who are we to question the modern man, that's right and it's now time for James Arañas to keep his nerve. He made it look easy and he may seem calm, but I can tell you that he's probably burning up inside. This is the only shot you would think could go wrong because if you manage to get it perfect on seven. the eight will be pretty easy, so he needs to make sure he doesn't come up short on this seven, so he needs to make sure it comes out.

This looks pretty good, you know, this is pretty good, so he's going to use two rails here. open this cut and hit halfway up the railing on the left side, how are you going to try to dig into it? Oh, yes, the seven ball rang, it made noise, but at the angle at which he approached, he holds his heart, yes, on the TV table, where everything is. New, those balls will slide on a club table when I stayed up, but he did it, he was 8-2 down, don't forget Thorsten had a chance on the last rack, unfortunately he made a push jump, but he didn't will do.

Ted James is honest with a spectacular victory over three-time world champion Torsten Holman 11 to 10, coming back from two down and then surviving a hills thriller at 10 apiece at 11:10 now moving on.
