I know it has taken an age, and all I can do is apologise, but finally we have released the final part of the Oly Bale v Gareth Potts £21,000 8-ball Money Match. We have had so many problems getting this particular video file to work properly but now it does!

Almost Perfect Pool

November 29, 2011 / The_Teach / No comments

This video is definitely worth a watch. In an amazing match that lasted just 23 minutes one of the two players played almost perfect pool, in fact their only mistake was a scratch in frame number 5. The match was the final of the 2011 Welsh Open recorded in Sunday 27th November.

Watch it below and then please let us have your thoughts:

Two Upcoming Live Events

November 8, 2011 / The_Teach / No comments

The end of November is our next foray into live web streams for your pleasure.

The first is on the 19th/20th November and is live coverage from the last leg of 2011 GB9 Ball Tour, the event is named the British Grand Prix but will still take place in Daventry.

There is a whisper that the GB9 Main event first prize will increase to £2000.00 next year but nothing as yet has been confirmed. This event though will be fierce as players like Jayson Shaw, Imran Majid, Daryl Peach, Craig Osborne and Chris Melling are all still in with a shout of gaining the coveted top spot on the rankings.

The GB9 Ball Tour pays out £500 bonus to the number 1 ranked player at the end of the year and a further £250 bonus to the player ranked number 2.

Our second event in November is the return of the Welsh 8-Ball Festival to your screens, we first covered this event back in 2009 but missed it last year due to prior commitments.

It will be great to be back as this really is a fantastic event held at Trecco Bay Holiday Park. There will be around 200 players converging on the venue across the five days and Cuesport TV will be on hand to cover the last 3 days. This will mean coverage from the Men’s and Women’s singles, the team event and the Junior finals.

A Truly International Tour

October 17, 2011 / The_Teach / No comments

In a statement posted yesterday, the IPA Tour, have confirmed that they have secured the sponsorship of the Hilton Worldwide chain of hotels to become the host venues for the 2012 season.

Whilst this is an excellent move there is still a lot of work to be done behind the scenes to secure the funding necessary to drive the tour forward. It is without doubt that the tour is in a transitional state and with the launch of the UK Pool Tour (started by the IPA’s former Chairman) that already has significant funding and backing a package needs to be put together sooner rather than later.

The one thing from the statement that I did pick up on though was the line quoted below,

We would like to advise that in 2012 the IPA TOUR will for the first time become a truly international tour by staging one of its events in Wales

Although Wales is officially a constituent Country of the United Kingdom it is hardly giving the tour some International flavour, many Welsh players have participated in the tour for a long time. If a tour such as the IPA wants to claim to be International in terms of the events then they have to leave the UK, France have a big Billard Anglais following and places like Belgium, Catalonia, Gibraltar and Malta also play a lot of 8-ball.

I am in no way knocking the efforts of the new tour committee as I understand the problems with trying to move events into other countries, and I also applaud them trying to change the geographic spread of the tournaments, hopefully in time many of the countries mentioned would have a genuine leg of the IPA Tour. Having Hilton as a sponsor may help towards this as they have hotels all over the world.

In the first instance though the tour need to announce their plans, entry fee’s, accommodation prices and prize funds for the tour next year so that players can make an informed choice over which series to participate in, and this is mainly a choice for the amateurs as it is them that make up the majority of the prize funds in the first place.

Does moving an event to Wales constitute a Truly International Tour?

Heaps of Videos Now Showing

October 12, 2011 / The_Teach / No comments

It has been a little over two weeks since I returned from Ireland and the European Blackball Championships, during the time I had over there James and I recorded some amazing action and it has always been my intention to make new content available sooner.

On this occasion I have pulled out all the stops to try and keep this event fresh in people’s minds. All of the content has now been uploaded to our system, some is taking a bit more time than others to come through transcoding however. What this means is that there will be somewhere in the region of 30 hours worth of Blackball Pool for you to view.

Most of the content is broken down into hour long chunks, but if that is too long then just use the skip feature on the video player.

I really hope you enjoy tucking in and watching some of this action, my favourite match of the whole week was probably the men’s semi-final between Darren Sterrett and Gavin Cleary, the match was tense, had great safety and some good aggression on the table as well. In my eyes it proved to be a very good advert for the Blackball game.

Sadly this is one of the matches that is not yet released but I will update this post with a direct link once it is.

Do you have a favourite match from the event? Please let us know
