8brcam Finals!

What a way to start off the new year. These two finalist have met up before in a grueling shootout which was decided by an early 8 that was almost rr'd then not. A race that is forever tainted because of one moment.

Ant vs CK

the first time around their roles were reveresed. CK the heavy favorite which looked like the long time pooler was finally going to get his first win against the new up and comer Ant. Now its 2010 and CK is still chasing that elusive first 8brcam title the season after Stu finally got his first. Ant is looking to capture his 3rd 8brcam win and is playing strong reaching finals as #1 seed, something only a handful have been able to do and finish.

This time Ant is a heavy favorite considering what happened earlier in 8brcam. Ant is already 1-0 on CK in the season. Both players are coming off of strong performances in semis and are both doing well in UCC.

The winner of this finals can almost be viewed as a 2 time 8brcam winner putting the what if's to rest that were left from their first finals meeting.

Ant has since proved he was no fluke, as many thought he could be, being one of the most successful players to ever play in 8brcam. CK now reaches his 3rd finals where hes had trouble in 8brcam going 0-2 however in every other cam comp he seems to thrive in the position. Will this be the season his mental block comes down or will Ant continue to be a consistent all time great and win his 3rd in 4 finals.

Interleague Archives

So as time passes by people generally forget these games, as did I, but luckily enough I had them saved in my email. I will be uploading some more videos from time to time, if anyone has any meaningul matches in interleagues send them my way and If I like them I might give you some glory too ;)

This particular tape is Game 7 DP vs BBM 2 or 3 seasons after I left bbm as captain. The score was 3-3 and it was myself up against kidfromperu(walter)

Yahoo Pool's New Years Resolution

So its no secret that I've been around yahoo pool for a long time and it is also no secret that yahoo pool seems to be fading away slowly but surely. The quality of the game has been diminished with all the ways to cheat and so many things that have changed for the worse in pool. I feel there are a couple of things yahoo can do to reverse the downward slide even if its only temporary

So for the new year I propose to yahoo they do some if not all of these.

1. This is the most important aspect to yahoo pool and I feel was the beggining of the end. Return the old Yahoo Pool tables!!!!! (it was the number one rated game on yahoo until they changed it) I know its possible because Japan pool has them! ffs im tired of the changing cue shadows and having to readjust how to aim on long shots we need some consistency! It also helps when the game doesnt look like the cue was drawn on paint. (who knows it might even make the new aimers obsolete until they figure it out again)

2. There are far too many rooms for how many people currently play pool, quality over quantity people. lets remove some rooms and we will see more activity in larger numbers.

3. Bring back the Yahoo Rung Ladder.

4. Give us free 9 ball like the Japan players.

5. Yahoo could probably make more money off of working with myleague then forcing us to pay for an allstar.

Now ofcourse this is only a wish list but its nice to think about the possibility of yahoo pool improving.

Pro is off to an amazing start

Well I havent even played one game in pro yet and im already annoyed at how they are running the league. One would think it was obvious when you let a spanish league in that there is going to be spanish players that speak spanish. Its even another thing when the head admin warns you in advance that some players dont even know english.

Jack DX: I got a few complaints from SPS


Jack DX: 1) tell ur players to only speak in english

Jack DX: 2) be more polite, quit makin fun of people

Jack DX: 3) show some more respect to the td
 
I wonder if jack wants to teach them english himself.
Or maybe Pete can since spanish obviously means coaching to him. (even if the player who is playing doesnt speak spanish (andy) LoL)
 
bunch of morons.

Big Thanks to CK / A New Year

I almost forgot to add my motivation for last years 8brcam victories!
lu ck
no homo

Now with that said I feel like I will be shifting my focus from cam comps back to interleagues.

I didnt really explore too many options for my first team as most teams have somebody or something that I would not allow myself to be on a team with. My first real option was lpl and thats about as much as I thought it through. I dont anticipate playing too much pool this year so it will be interesting to see how well I will be able to play and if I will be able to contribute positively to the team.

For now I will be enjoying my stay with lpl for the foreseeable future until I either create a league or something that happens in lpl causes me to leave.

Anyone interested in Racing me can contact me for lpl races.
