Title: Mosconi Cup Post by: verndog158 on December 09, 2015, 12:48:32 AM Any Mosconi cup fans? Ryder cup of 9 ball pool. Currently in the Tropicana Hotel, Vegas!
Europe leading 6-3 in the last match of day 2. Love this version of pool, so much more exciting than 8 ball pool IMO. Any other fans?? Title: Re: Mosconi Cup Post by: Karabiner on December 09, 2015, 12:57:31 AM "Stu The Swerve" Hopkin shoots a mean stick.

His break is so powerful he has been known to make cue-balls explode. Title: Re: Mosconi Cup Post by: Knottikay on December 09, 2015, 10:54:23 AM Gutted I missed the 1st day. Caught up last night and was watching every game from 7pm while attempting to play poker on line. The 5 hours flew by. Credit where it is due, that last 9 ball was very good by the yanks. Looks like the European team are a close bunch this year. Title: Re: Mosconi Cup Post by: vegaslover on December 09, 2015, 11:50:15 AM Love it, even more so that Europe been winning it so often past few years.
Knottikay - Europe been very close for years, just like in Ryder cup, probs one of the reasons they win so often Title: Re: Mosconi Cup Post by: Jamier-Host on December 09, 2015, 12:19:00 PM Never really followed pool but read a book recently about a road hustler called Kid Delicious that I enjoyed. Sadly when i looked him up after it sounds like he had a massive drop in form and isn't on the circuit at all any more since it got bigger.
EDIT - Found an article (http://www.si.com/more-sports/2014/10/08/kid-delicious-bristol-bob-si-60-jon-wertheim#) about him & this is the book (http://www.amazon.co.uk/Running-Table-Delicious-American-Hustler/dp/0547086121) i read Title: Re: Mosconi Cup Post by: verndog158 on December 09, 2015, 11:50:03 PM unbelievable end to that match! what a time to stick the 9 in off the break!!
