CSI's US Open 8-Ball Taken by Shane Van Boening

Shane Van Boening has won the US Open 8-Ball Title by defeating Carlo Biado 13-11 in the finals at the Rio Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas. Van Boening arrived in the finals unscathed, never having been defeated on his trip through the charts.

Carlo Biado had been on a roll of his own, defeating two-time World Champion Jia-Qing Wu 8-6. but he ran into another hot hand in the form of Jayson Shaw and very quickly found himself nearly snowballed at 8-.1. The drama for Biado had only begun to unfold. His first opponent on the one-loss side was none other than his friend and respected elder player Francisco Bustamante. The two countrymen fought it out to a squeaker with Biado sliding through 8-7.

Biado then had to get past both Sean Cheng and Warren Kiamco to progress. He dispatched them both with the identical scores of 8-6. All of that work just to have to face the man who had sent him left again as he had to take on Jayson Shaw as Shaw had lost to Walter Cheng 8-2.

Shaw, who had so dominated the first meeting of the two, never had a chance to breathe. Biado got his revenge in style with an 8-2 thrashing. He then had to face Walter Cheng to see who would get the final shot at Shane Van Boening.

Many westerners are not familiar with Cheng. He is a former Taiwanese 9-Ball and 10-Ball National Champion. All week he had been making any ball he could see. As we had seen throughout the tournament the break would play a huge role in the outcome of the match. Successful break shots lead to run outs.

Appleton and Boyes are England A

WITH THE World Cup of Pool taking place in England for the first time in the eight year history of the event, established international stars Darren Appleton and Karl Boyes will be making up the England A team for their assault on the most prestigious title in team pool.

World No.1 Appleton, who represented England in the World Cup in 2009, 11 and 12, is the reigning World 9 Ball champion as well as back-to-back winner of the 2010 and 11 US Open.

Im delighted to finally be playing with Karl and the main reasons are that we have a great record playing doubles and winning money matches in Philippines, said Appleton.

We also played great when we won World Team Championships and weve also played some doubles in English 8 ball.

We gel together which is very important, and he listens to his captain! To be in the York Hall will be awesome and myself and Karl have got some great memories from the 2010 Mosconi Cup when we both played well and won our doubles.

It's going to be carnage and England A or B are going to be tough to beat and I for one can't wait. Im convinced this is the year England finally triumphs.

Blackpool-based Boyes will be making his second appearance in the event having partnered Daryl Peach in 2010 when the England side were ignominiously dumped out of the competition by France.

I am very happy to have been invited me back to play in the World Cup of Pool, said the 2010 World 8 Ball Champion.

In my eyes Matchroom sports events are the pinnacle of our sport and when I don't play in them I find it hard to concentrate all year round. So to be back with an opportunity and with my long time friend Darren has given me the boost I needed.

The final event of the Total9Ball Amateur Series was held at St Albans Hurricane Room on Saturday 13th July. 24 players competed in this event all trying to secure their places in the Grand Finals held on the 27th July.

Again it was great to see new faces involved in this T9B event and the first ever woman entrant... Alexandra Cunha originally from Portugal is a very keen cueist and she proved she can mix it with the best amateur 9ballers in the country.

24 players entered which was a good attendance bearing in mind the heat however The Hurricane Room had the air con on full blast so the event was go go go.

Swedish 10-Ball - Chawki and Ouschan take the trophies in Stockholm

A home team win was celebrated in the men's event as Sweden's Jim Chawki trounced Russia's Ruslan Chinakhov 9-4 in the final in Stockholm this weekend. Chawki also despatched last year's champion, Mark Gray in the semi-final with an equally strong 9-6 scoreline, whilst Chinakhov's semi-final victory came at the expense of another Swede, Christian Fischer, to earn his chance in the final.

In the women's event Jasmin Ouschan took top honours, going throughout the tournament without loss and edging Poland's Oliwia Czuprynska 8-6. Caroline Roos was Sweden's top female player, fighting back from the one-loss side of the draw, and only finally stopped by Czuprynska in the semi-final.

Always touted to be one of the largest independent European tournaments of the year, the Swedish 10-Ball Open really does offer fantastic value for money to players making the trip to Stockholm. No other tournament in Europe this year can offer the same potential return on investment with a handsome total prize fund of 20,000 (4,000 to the winner) and just 96 entrants in the men's event. - do the maths and you'll see what I mean.

The field features a breadth of talent from all over Europe - Britain is ably represented by the defending champion Mark Gray and 2012 semi-finalist Daryl Peach, the Netherlands have Niels Feijen and Ivo Aarts in attendance, and as you would expect, the host nation of Sweden is very well represented with local hot-shots Jim Chawki, Tom Storm, and the ever-present Marcus Chamat among the best known names.

The women's event forms part of the Women's Euro Tour - and both tournaments will have live scoring available at the official website.

Hosted again this year at the fabulously sexy looking "JoLo & Co" - their slogan "Billard Met Guldkant" which translates roughly as "Pool With A Gold Lining" - means that players can expect nothing but the best in equipment and cuisine while pursuing the "Guld".

2013 Longoni Benelux Open - Van den Berg defeats Souquet

For the fifth consecutive year the Longoni Benelux Open was staged at De Loft in Leuven (Belgium). With a guaranteed prize fund of 10,000 and a coveted Longoni cup, the qualification rounds drew 167 entries. Elite players, such as reigning champion Daryl Peach, Niels Feijen, Ralf Souquet, Tony Drago, Nick van den Berg, Imran Majid and champion of the inaugural edition Andreas Roschkowsky, turned up to exhibit their spectacular showmanship.

After a long fought battle, from 9.00 am until past midnight, the new champion emerged: El Nio Nick van den Berg. He defeated none other than The Kaiser Ralf Souquet, who made his first appearance at the Longoni Benelux Open. The conditions were tough, tight pockets and ironically great weather, which made it tropically hot in the venue.

El Nio was still quite fresh, though, as he asked for the time, prior to the semi final. Its 11 oclock. Upon which he reacted flabbergasted: Nooo I thought it was only 8 oclock. Nick reached the final undefeated, ousting German upcoming young talent Can Salim, Dutch outsider Fauzi Halaby, Ralf Souquet to reach the quarter final and Imran Majid for the hot seat.

THE WPBL BROADCASTS ALL MATCHES FREE JULY 4TH WEEKEND
Reported By: Steve Strain

The World Professional Billiard Leagues sixth week of match play begins Friday July 5th as the league took Independence Day off. In honor of the holiday, the WPBL will offer all of their matches free this weekend and can be viewed at www.WPBLtv.com. Six teams will compete at the WPBL Arena in Las Vegas, NV, including five teams from the South Division and one from the North Division.

The WPBL starts off the 4th of July weekend with a bang (pardon the pun), as the hottest team in the league gets back into action Friday after a couple weeks off. The Phoenix Fire who are currently 1st in the league, have won four straight matches since falling in the season opener, and have averaged 13 points per match during that span. Friday, the Fire try to stay hot when they face the Toronto Blue Sharks who are the only team from the North Division competing this weekend.

WPBL WEEK #5 MATCH RECAP
Reported By: Steve Strain

Seven teams competed this weekend during the World Professional Billiard Leagues fifth week of match play at the WPBL Arena in Las Vegas, NV. At weeks end, the Minnesota Outlaws are the only WPBL team to have won every match this season.

Minnesota scored a season high 13 match points in their win against the Philadelphia Aces. Raising their points-per-match average to 10     and improving their match record to 5-0 after Sunday's match, the Outlaws are now atop the North Division just ahead of the Toronto Blue Sharks.

The doubles duo of Thorsten Hohmann and Ralf Souquet blew open the Sunday match with a 30-0 shutout of Brandon Shuff and Stevie Moore to take a 7-1 match lead. The lead swelled to 9-1 after Hohmann knocked off Shuff in singles 30-6. The win over Philadelphia came two days after Minnesota defeated the Las Vegas Dice 9-5, with Hohmann's 30-1 singles win over John Schmidt helping claim the victory.
