Labutis in top form
Men's division was dominated by local players as half of the last eight were Lithuanians. The winner of the stage was Lithuanian Pijus Labutis who in the semi final got a good resistance from Estonian Joonas Saska when the match ended 8:6. Belorus Vadim Papish denied an all Lithuanian final when he got the better of Domas Mineikis (LIT) 8:5. However Papish was unable to keep up with Labutis as the latter comfortably won 8:3.
After the third event the men's division is lead by Joonas Saska who is followed by Vitalijs Śpaks (LAT) and the third place is tied by Oliver Lepp and Vadim Papizh.
Prisjaznuka two out of three
Lithuanian old-boys and women made it even better than the men. There was an incredible six players from Lithuania in the last eight, but the winner came from Latvia. The last stage winner Anna Prisjaznuka kept her nerve and secured her second stage win in a row which makes in this year's event two out of three. It was a perfect final as overall ranking first two battled out the best player of the weekend. As said Prisjaznuka was better, but Agne Jarusauskaite (LIT) did not go down easily as the final score was 8:6. Prior to the thrilling final both of the finalists got comfortable wins in their semi finals. Prisjaznuka won 7:1 over Darius Baćinckas and Jarusauskaite with the same score over Diana Tracević both of whom were from Lithuania.
Regardless of the loss in the final Jaruśauskaite still holds the number one spot in the overall ranking by one point in front of Prisjaznuka.
New venue for the Mezz Cues Baltic Pool League
This time it was for the first time that Mezz Cues Baltic Pool League got out of the pool hall and got more attention and spectators from people outside pool. As previously said the final was held in PC MEGA shopping mall and looking at the spectators number it was a huge success and good advertising not only for the Mezz Cues Baltic Pool League, but to pool as a sport as well.
There were a total of 84 players from Belorus, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Norway participating this weekend. Big thank you goes out to all the athletes, fans, Undine Pool Club, PC MEGA shopping mall and all the volunteers that made another great event possible. Naturally a special gratitude to all the sponsors - Mezz Cues, Aramith, Biljardai, Kamui, Aveiras, True Tight Rack, Entry, Baribal Pool Club, Undine, Bams Pool House and East European Billard Council.
