SVB Crashes Out To Wu At Partypoker US Open 9-ball Championship
Report by Nick Teale
Media Director - Matchroom Sport
All photography courtesy of ©JP Parmentier/Vincent Rochefort
Wu Jiaqing will face Wang Can in the quarter-finals of the partypoker US Open 9-Ball Championship after dumping American No.1 Shane van Boening out of the tournament at Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino Convention Center, Las Vegas, live on Sky Sports and DAZN.
Van Boening ran the first two racks of the match and lead for most of the match, but at 7-4 down Wu fought back with four consecutive racks to lead for the first time. Two more games went in Wu’s favour to take the World Cup of Pool winner to the hill, but the former World Champion wasn’t left with a shot on the 1 after breaking for the match.
That allowed Van Boening a route back into the match and the South Dakota Kid looked to be taking it but missed the 9, provoking gasps from the 600-strong crowd. Wu was left a long cut on the 1 ball to the bottom left pocket. He called for his shot-clock extension, took his time and rolled the winning ball home.
Earlier, Wang had defeated Ryan Hsu for his place in the quarter-finals. Hsu had taken a 2-0 lead but Wang took five straight racks to gain the upper hand in the match. The Chinese went in off during the 10th rack to offer Hsu a lifeline, but Wang was soon back at the table and won five racks without reply to seal the victory.

Only 16 Left Standing As Partypoker US Open 9-ball Championship Heads To Single Elimination
Report by Nick Teale
Media Director - Matchroom Sport
All photography courtesy of ©JP Parmentier/Vincent Rochefort
After 488 matches of double elimination pool the partypoker US Open 9-Ball Championship is down to the last 16 as play moves into the Diamond Arena at Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino Convention Center, Las Vegas on Wednesday.
The tournament now switches to single elimination, with global television coverage including Sky Sports and DAZN. The top two seeded players – defending champion Jayson Shaw and US No.1 Shane van Boening – both came through the double elimination stage unscathed and will now face Joshua Filler and Wu Jiaqing respectively in two of the standout matches from the last 16.
Tuesday’s action ended with the final eight matches on the losers’ side of the double elimination brackets. Filler beat Petri Makkonen 11-6 to progress, while Wu booked his match with Van Boening by defeating Mieszko Fortunski in the 21st and final rack of their match.
Elsewhere there was success for Aloysuis Yapp over Ko Pin-Yi, whose brother Ko Ping-Chung beat Tyler Styer 11-7. There were wins too for Lui Haitao and Wang Can of China, while Jeffrey Ignacio’s victory over Dennis Hatch means Van Boening is the only play from outside of Asia in the bottom half of the draw. England’s Imran Majid defeated Cheng-Chieh Liu of Taiwan and will now face Jeff De Luna.

Benji does the double at Event 3
Report by: Matt Hawthorn
Second City 9 Ball
Solihull 9 Ball Series Event 3 is in the books. On Saturday 20th April 2019, 41 registered players made the journey to Rileys Sports Bar, Solihull, all with the intention of claiming the Event 3 title, or at least a share of the £1100 prize fund.
With the Grand Final only 9 weeks away players were required to have played a minimum of 3 events to meet qualification criteria. All knew that a good run in the tournament could well leave them in pole position for one of the sixteen sought after spots.
Solihull 9 Ball is always happy to welcome newcomers to our tournaments and several impressed during their series debuts. Three wins saw Chris Parker safely through to the last sixteen while Danny Orme also battled his way to the single elimination stage undefeated. Terry Davies was downed 7-3 by Kev Simpson but still managed to make the last 16 thanks to a victory over Ryan Coton. Jimmy Mole has always supported 9 Ball events at this venue so it was good to see him in good form early on with wins over Karl Hooley and Solihull 9 Ball’s own Daryl Garland. Unfortunately for Jimmy he was sent to the loser’s side by Benji Buckley before his involvement was ended completely by another debutant, local 8 baller Nick Birch. Jan Ibrahim also impressed on his way to the single elimination phase.

Kevin Cheng Captures The WPA Players Championship In A Sudden Death Thriller Over Carlo Biado
By Ted Lerner
WPA Media Officer
All photography courtesy of ©JP Parmentier
Taiwan’s Kevin Cheng captured the inaugural WPA Players Championship on Friday, storming back from the near dead to defeat the Philippines Carlo Biado, 12-11, in a thrilling final at Griffs Billiards in Las Vegas.
The victory capped a terrific week for the Taiwanese sharpshooter, who showed that not only is he one of pool’s hottest sharp shooters, but also that he is a resilient, never-say-die fighter that can grind it out with the best of them.
It was that trench warfare mentality that helped bring Cheng back from the dead, as he was down 8-5 in the race to 9 final and was sitting in his chair watching Biado clear for the title. It was only when the Filipino unexpectedly missed a 4-ball that Cheng felt a slight heartbeat. He proceeded to win the next four racks, and then slugged it out in a nervy 45 minute stretch with Biado in the win-by-two format, until the pair reached the limit of 11-11 all and played one rack for the title, which Cheng won.
The Taiwan-Philippines final seemed only fitting as the day began with two Taiwan-Philippine semi-finals. In the first semi, Cheng squared off with Johann Chua and quickly got out to a 4-1. But as he had done all week, Chua stormed back to tie the match at 4-4. The pair stayed even for the next few racks, until the Filipino made several mistakes that opened the door for Cheng. The Taiwanese then zeroed in on the finish line and won 9-6.

European Pool Billiards Sports Betting
Online gaming has been dominating the casino industry and as a result online sports bookies have been adding to their already well-established sporting events. Looking at NoviBet, you will see the quality services offered by these sites and they include high definition streaming services which allows you to watch your favourite sporting events live and place bets on them. Pool billiards has also recently been making its rounds on the sporting side of betting events and if you weren’t aware that you could wager on some of the biggest championship games, here is what you need to know about European pool billiards and sports betting.
The Sports Betting Glossary for Pool
Online sports books have a language of their own. Between the punter and the bookie, there is a passionate language that punters need to understand so that they can make the best wager possible. Pool and snooker share a common language; however these terms are somewhat different from other sports betting terms which include football, hockey, baseball and basketball.
Here are some of the terms you may encounter:
Odds – this is the payout prediction of what the bookie thinks the match will deliver. These are the chances of winning and losing.
Fractional Odds – These odds are most popular in Ireland and the UK. The fraction holds the value of the amount of the wager at stake and the other is the profit being predicted. The total is then the fractional odds which will be returned.

RECORD VIEWERS TUNE IN FOR DAFABET WORLD POOL MASTERS
A record number of viewers saw David Alcaide’s dramatic Dafabet World Pool Masters win live on Sky Sports, while over half a million fans saw the tournament unfold around the world on Facebook Live.
Alcaide won his second Masters title with a 9-ball banked down the table at hill-hill, the final shot of perhaps the most thrilling final in the event’s 26-year history. All six sessions of the tournament saw an increase in viewership and the final kept audiences hooked with more than three times as many UK viewers tuning in compared with 2018.
The tournament was also shown live by Matchroom Sport broadcast partners around the world, while a Facebook Live stream was available to fans in nations without a TV broadcaster and reached well over 500,000 users.
Emily Frazer, Matchroom Multi Sport Chief Operating Officer, said: “We are delighted to report that our Sky Sports viewing figures showed a huge increase on 2018. The live viewership increased session-by-session, showing that sports fans were staying tuned in throughout the tournament.
“Expanding the tournament to a 24-player field meant we could bring more top-class players to Gibraltar, and they delivered one of the highest-quality Masters tournaments we have seen. The final itself will live long in the memory but we also enjoyed four other hill-hill matches including a gripping match where Shane van Boening had to battle back from 6-3 down to defeat the Women’s World No.1, Han Yu.

ALCAIDE IS DAFABET WORLD POOL MASTERS CHAMPION
THE FINAL
David Alcaide 9 – 8 Alexander Kazakis
SEMI-FINALS
David Alcaide 8 – 3 Eklent Kaci
Alexander Kazakis 8 – 1 Skyler Woodward
DAVID ALCAIDE is the 2019 Dafabet World Pool Masters Champion as he won an absolute belter of a final as he came from behind to beat Alexander Kazakis 9-8 in front of a packed crowd at the Tercentenary Hall at the Victoria Stadium in Gibraltar.
Both players put their hearts and souls into the final and left nothing out there but it was Alcaide, a winner here in 2017, who won the dramatic deciding rack to send his battery of fans into a frenzy.
Having clawed his way back from a losing position, at 0-5 and then 5-8, Alcaide broke in the decider. He ran out of position though with the five ball on the rail and attempted to swerve the cue ball and flick it down the cushion. It failed and left a great opportunity for Kazakis.
The Greek, under huge pressure, cleared the table down to the 8 and 9 balls but completely fluffed the positional shot after pocketing the 8 and left himself with either a bank into the centre pocket for the win or a safety.
He chose safety and left the cue ball and object balls at opposite ends of the table. However, seizing the opportunity, Alcaide banked the 9 ball down table and it rolled straight into the heart of the pocket for a magnificent victory.
“This is unbelievable,” said jubilant Alcaide immediately after the match. “I played that final for all the fans and my daughter, Daniella. Every ball I was thinking it was for her and I played to win.

Ruijsink Returns As Coach; Van Boening & Woodward Confirmed For Team USA
Johan Ruijsink will coach Team USA for a third time at this year’s partypoker Mosconi Cup and will have Shane van Boening and Skyler Woodward on his team at Mandalay Bay Resort, Las Vegas this November 25-28.
Ruijsink guided USA to their 12th partypoker Mosconi Cup title and first in nine years when they shocked Team Europe with an 11-9 success at Alexandra Palace, London last December. Woodward collected the MVP award, while it was Van Boening who made the winning 9-ball for a famous victory.
Both players will return to the team in 2019 and will be joined by three further players to be selected by Ruijsink. As in 2018, Coach Ruijsink will run a series of training camps for players under consideration for selection, before choosing his final squad in the autumn.
“I am really happy that Matchroom decided to hire me again for this year’s Mosconi Cup,” said Ruijsink, who will have Jeremy Jones as his Vice Coach for a second time at this year’s Cup.

PRO9 has established an outstanding reputation as Europes No.1 source for information on American Pool in the UK and Europe.
Upcoming tournament details, prompt match reporting, exclusive images by talented photographers, superb articles by expert pundits, active pool related forums, player profiles and a very sophisticated membership - basically, an incredible information resource for the American style game in Europe.
Since it launched, PRO9 has become compulsory reading, not just for the UKs pool players, but to hundreds and thousands of pool obsessives from around the world every single day.
PRO9s members range from professional pool players, cue-sports enthusiasts, club managers, tournament organisers, pool fans and aficionados, as well as various "movers and shakers" in the cue-sports field, including entrepreneurs in the wholesale and retail sector, as well as magazine editors and television sports promoters.
Growing more and more popular every single year, PRO9 is the best placed vehicle for the promotion of your pool club, billiards brand, associated products, services and opportunities in the truly massive pan-European billiard market.
