Day Four: Final Four Cast Complete: Souquet, Liu, Hohmann, Lining
Its now down to the final four. The new champion in the Philippine Open Pool Championships will be known today, Monday, April 11, at the SM Megamall in Mandaluyong City. As early as Sunday afternoon, Ricky Yang of Indonesia, the defending champion, bowed out of the tournament after suffering his second setback. He lost to up-and-coming Filipino player Carlo Biado, 1-9, as early as the round-of-16. The 27-year old Biado continued to push his luck as far as he could and he did that with a stunning 9-7 win over his compatriot, newly-crowned World 8-Ball champion Dennis Orcullo.
His luck ended in a do-or-die battle against former world champion Thorsten Hohmann of Germany, who won in a thrilling 9-8 encounter. The German player, who is seeking his first championship on Philippine soil, joined his bosom buddy and countryman Ralf Souquet and Liu Haitao of China, two players who barged into the Final Four unscathed going to the final day.
The last berth for the semifinals was disputed by veteran Filipino Antonio Lining and Darren Appleton of Great Britain. Lining prevailed in the tightly contested match, 9-6. Its nice to be in the semifinals. Its always fun for me competing in the Philippines and until now, I have yet to win a title here, said Hohmann. I made several mistakes, including the missed shot at the No. 10 ball, which could have given me a chance to finish off the match earlier. But he made mistakes, too, and we had an interesting finish by making several safety exchanges. Lining is the last Filipino standing.
His win over Appleton, a former World Ten Ball champion, was aided by luck coupled with the Britons erratic game, which came at a perfect time. Luck played a big part in my victory, as well as the bad game he played, said Lining. The four players take center stage on Monday beginning at 12 noon with Lining taking on Souquet and Liu going up against Hohmann.

Philippine Open - Day 3
After three days of play the 2011 Philippine Open, the fields are now down to just sixteen men and twelve ladies.
Possibly the biggest surprise in the men's division is the play of Iran's Tahkti Zarekani. With wins over Shinya Inoue, Jerico Banares and Hwang Yong, Zarekani is proving that his recent 5th place finish at the World 8-Ball Championship was no fluke. Zarekani will be tested on day four by Haitao Liu.
Other matches on the winners side will see Antonio Lining taking on Lee Van Corteza, Marcus Chamat facing Thorsten Hohmann and Darren Appleton playing Ralf Souquet.

Stephan Cohen - France
Dynamic European Championship ends with the 10-ball finals
The 2011 EPBF European 10-ball Champions are Jasmin Ouschan (AUT), Stephan Cohen (nothing) and Jouni Tahti (FIN).
In the mens final, two players met with a long history in European pool billiard. Stephan Cohen and Radoslaw Babica (POL) wanted to see who will be the sharpest blade in 10-ball In the first racks, Cohen always started playing good safety shots, leaving nothing to do for Babica but trying to hit the ball on. Babica played two fouls and Cohen benefitted from that. He managed to lead 4:1 over Babica when the tide turned and Babica suddenly got the better breaks and won rack after rack. Babica took a 6:4 lead over Cohen, coming to the table with his own break. He knew he could put quite some pressure on his opponent of he broke and ran the rack but he scratched on the break. Again, Lady Luck changed sides and things went better for Cohen. The French ran the rack and play another run out straight after, taking a 7:6 lead. With Cohen being on the hill, Babica came to the table again and had to break. He had no position and another safety battle evolved. Babica found himself with a long but possible shot on the 8-ball. He pocketed the 8 and the cue ball scratched. Cohen went to the table, pocketed the two remaining balls and seized the title of European Champion.

Gerda Hoffstatter and Jasmin Ouschan - Austria
Ouschan snatches another title - Larsson takes title in wheelchair division
Jasmin Ouschan is the 2011 EPBF European Champion in the Womens 9-Ball division.
Jasmin took a quick 3:1 lead over Gerda. She opened the next rack with a powerful break. She had no position on the 2-ball so she decided to simply banked it in. We have seen everything already so far bank shots, combinations, kick shots she just seems to never miss comments the official commentator of the LiveStream matches Marco Takis. Jasmin ran the rack and took a 4:1 lead, making the game look so easy. Then Gerda played a good break shot and ran the balls until she got no position on the 6-ball. She left a safety for Jasmin who tried to play a jump shot but she scratched. Gerda ran the remaining balls and got closer, making the score 2:4. Another break and run followed from Jasmin to go to 5:2. Then it was Gerdas break shot. Two balls went down but there was no shot on the 1-ball. Gerda played a push out, leaving a combination shot for Jasmin. Jasmin pocketed the combination shot dead centre and ran the whole rack, making the score 6:2. That put her on the hill with her own break shot to come up. She pocketed the 1-ball in the side pocket but got no position on the 2-ball. She let Gerda get to the table again because she missed the 2-ball.
Gerda had a long shot and she missed, leaving a shot in turn for Jasmin. Jasmin pocketed the 2-ball but then scratched on the 3-ball. Gerda got to the table with ball in hand. She ran some balls and fell straight on the 7-ball. By trying to play position for the 8-ball, Gerda tried to cheat the pocket and missed. The tables have very tight pockets. Jasmin got to the table and played another combination shot, sinking the 9-ball. She defended her title from last year in the 9-ball division as well as in straight pool.

Johnny Archer talks about practice, money matches, and Earl's ear muffs!
 Pro9 Hi Johhny, thanks for taking time to talk to us at Pro9... You've got a lot of fans in Europe and we're all very interested in the "Bad Blood 1" event coming in April between you and Earl Strickland, can you tell us how this tournament came about? Who's idea was it, is there really some bad feeling between you two, or are you actually the best of friends? How important is it to you to win this match?
 Johnny "Mark (Cantrill) and I were talking one day and we were talking about putting on a Challenge match and who we would like to play each other. Earl's name came to mind because him and I have played against each other a long time in professional events but never a long challenge match."
"Over the last few years there has been some significant tension between us going back to the Mosconi Cup when, in my opinion, he broke off the team and played on his own team, which brought tension to all players and their ability to focus as a team on winning in a positive environment. Although I've always looked up to Earl since I started playing back in the 80's, I really watched his style of play, but never his behavior. I feel like over the years Earl has become angry with fans and other players including myself and it has really upset me because I have always liked Earl and stood up for him against everybody."
"It is very important to me to win because I hate to lose but mostly it's not about the money; maybe more of a challenge to myself to beat once again one of the World's all time Greatest players."
