Jim Wych Danny Diliberto and Billy Incardona are the best commentators in the billiard world including snooker commentators), those guys are giving so much information about the game itself that you actually learning something
Victor Diaz www.wpa-pool.com/web/index.asp?id=117&pagetype=rules. Best place for the rules. Much more difficult than 8-ball but once you get the hang, its an excellent competitive game
The old guy you refer to is Danny DiLiberto, one of the greatest one pocket players to have ever played the game, and has been inducted into the hall of fame for his incredible career performances. Ignorance isn't bliss, so learn a thing or two about someone before you accuse them for "knowing nothing about shots".
@lemonite1 thats because that was the key rack in the match obviously. im a very fast player, but when it comes to a key decision i will apologize to my opponent and take quite a while, just to make sure i dont make any mistakes at all. hes a professional. give him a break.
totally agree with you ..And by the way he does know a lot about shots ...I've been listenning to those commentators on "star sports" (I live in asia now) and their knowledge of the sport is pathetic ... its nice to have a voice like Danny to actually be learning properly about pool as you watch those professional events ..wish he was on in Asia as well..
I know we are 'supposed to be liberal in giving a guy time to shoot, but on that last rack, Hohmann spent almost 2 half minutes looking at that 1 ball.
Must be a fluke, since Thorsten apologized. What he had in mind was to glance off the bottom part of the 2 and go behind those balls (the 5, 9, 4 - even the 7 if he had hit the 2 real thin, which is risky, as one might scratch into the bottom right corner pocket). Also, you'll notice he would have left a shot at the 2 had he missed (chances of getting a safe with the 3 are slim - not as big a ball to get behind from that angle).
That said, I would have my money on a circa 1980 Sigel Circa 1976'ish Mizerak Pre-stroke Mosconi when he was winning 14 World Championships and afew others. Fact is Thorsten is nowhere near the dominant straight pool player that each of those guys were in their era's. Even today I like Ortmann over Thorsten in a long (500+) straight pool match.
and im tired of hearing about how bad the announcers are. The contention of the commentators is to entertain newcomer viewers, not the rabid pool fan/player. Because the pool playersthat watch already know everything, dont they already know everything
Danny Diliberto needs to go. His commentary is awful. he talks about vocabulary more than pool and doesn't seem to have a clue about how these modern players move around the rack
Rodney Morris is my frickin hero!!
one of the best matches that bcn has posted in a long time!keep up the good videos bcn!!!

Jim Wych best commentator, Rodney Morris 1 of the best left handers ever
Idk what you guys are talking about these announcers are great
Thanks for the videos but why is it always a secret from what year these vid's are??
great match
21:00 is such a great shot
love that subscribe option!
(second one!)
Exciting one!
0:40 he really likes his stick, LOOK AT ALL THOSE STROKES XD
I thought that one 8 shot cut that Morris did was a thing of beauty to tie it 9-9. I was thinking bank shot but not what he had in mind
I want to be some day like these professionals players
nope, the first ball you contact must be your type of balls (unless nothing has been taken or you are on the 8) freeball otherwise
Where is the shot clock
I have no idea how this score and stuff works can someone explain

man this was such a close match

At 20:15.... that was a great shot. They are calling it a fluke... is that not what he was going for?
Why don't you see players breaking from the rail anymore? Why are they breaking from the box? Change of rule? Great match nonetheless!

I gotta run
Rodney is a hoss!!!
Clarification: "go behind those balls with the cue ball" is what I meant to say.
Kentucky is known as the "Bank state" players like Nick Varner is known for his bank skills, hes from Kentucky
Rules say break from the box. They change it almost every year
I know we are 'supposed to be liberal in giving a guy time to shoot, but on that last rack, Hohmann spent almost 2 half minutes looking at that 1 ball.
32:06
AHHH! lol
