Schmidt Wins DCC One Pocket Division

January 31, 2009 / The_Teach / No comments

Renowned mostly for his 9-ball and Straight Pool John Schmidt has beaten Scott Frost to lift the Derby City Classic One Pocket division 3-1.

The 9-ball division is drawing to a cose with 50 players still competing in round 7.

The straight pool event is down to the last four with some British interest still battling away, World 10-ball Champion Darren Appleton would play World Straight Pool Champion Thorsten Hohmann of Germany in the semi-finals and John Schmidt (told you his game was 14.1) playing Danny Harriman.

The final is at some point today but results are a bit sketchy due to the size of the event and the time difference.

Derby City Classic Underway

January 29, 2009 / The_Teach / No comments

I have just had 6 days without access to the Internet thanks to Talk Talk, however I am now back and available.

Most of you that are in the know will realise that the 11th Annual Derby City Classic is underway in Elizabeth, Indiana (yes I know it’s not Kentucky, but the venue has changed to facilitate a larger tournament).

The annual ‘Hustlers Convention’ – a phrase I have blatantly stolen from Mika Immonen’s Blog – features tournaments in 9-ball, One Pocket and Bank Pool with every notable pro and road player converging on the hotel for 10 days of action.

This year you can watch live action from two sources:

The Action Report are streaming from the TAR Pit, with challenges and money-match ups. Some days are free others are PPV.

Likewise Accu-stats will be producing and streaming coverage of the main event, this is only available on PPV.

I have put the Action Report stream embedded below:
