DYNAMIC BILLIARD EUROPEAN CHAMPIONSHIPS 2023
Golds For Regli, Ivanovskaia And Brajkovic
Reporter: Luke Riches on behalf of the EPBF
Photography: ©EPBF
THE 10 BALL division at the annual Dynamic Billard European
Championships concluded today in Tampere, Finland and there were
hard-won golds for Switzerland, Germany and a first-ever for Slovenia.
It was discipline No.2 in the none-day festival of pool and in the men’s
division, Ronald Regli (Switzerland) defeated Germany’s Stefan Kasper
8-4 in a good quality match where little separated the two antagonists
in open play but where a couple of dry break shots conspired to undo
Kasper’s hopes.
A former German national snooker champion without much of a form-line on
nine foot tables, Kasper won the lag and dropped three balls from the
break. He ran into trouble as the 5 and 9 locked themselves together and
couldn’t do anything with it to leave Regli to mop up and take the
opening rack.
Regli made four balls from his opening break shot and made plain sailing
with the rest of the table to open up a two-rack lead. He got back to
the table in the next but a positional error forced an easy safety which
Kasper was able to successfully extricate himself from. They went back
and forth before the German gave Regli the opportunity to clear a fairly
difficult table for a 3-0 cushion.
Regli found himself hooked on the 1 ball in the next and played a tidy
containing safety. Kasper had the first pocketing chance of the rack and
gave his confidence a real boost as he ran out to get on the scoreboard.

"Read More..." for the details.
Kasper nearly scratched from his break in the fifth game but the balls
were laid out nicely for him, and moving the cue ball around freely, he
took the rack to reduce the deficit. Two balls down in the next for
Regli but with no pocketing shot on the 1 ball pushed Regli to adopt
safety tactics. Kasper kicked out of the snooker but left the 1 ball
available and Regli was able to complete the table to reach the halfway
stage at 4-2.
An excellent break and run after a solid break, gave Kasper the next
rack and a dry break from Regli gave him the opportunity in the next. A
tremendous combination 5/9 from the German gave him the initiative and
some solid potting, riding his luck, saw him level the match at 4-4.
A dry break from Kasper returned the table back to the Swiss and he ran
through the balls to regain the lead and in the next, Regli kept the
cueball in the centre of the table and with a shot on the 1 ball, was on
his way. Playing some nice shots and always in control, Regli moved the
score onto 6-4.
Another inopportune dry break from Kasper put Regli back to the table
and the Swiss shooter didn't waste any time to reach the hill at 7-4.
Another lovely break once again left a wide-open table for Regli and he
cleared it with confidence to claim his first ever European Championship
gold medal.
Regli was understandably thrilled in victory; “At last after 20 years of
playing European Championships! You know me, I like to be with the
people but I’m really happy now that I made it finally and now, they’re
cheering for me and I’m happy and really thankful for all of them now
that I made it. It’s a win for all of us.
“Now for sure the first thing I do is enjoy the win that I had today but
tomorrow is a new day and we will be going for the next disciplines.”
Medals – Men
Gold – Ronald Regli (SUI)
Silver – Stefan Casper
Bronze – Mikael Oegaard (NOR)
Bronze – Wojciech Szewczyk (POL)
Veronika Ivanovskaia continued her superb 2023 as she defeated
compatriot Pia Filler 6-3 in an all-German final to take the gold medal
in the Women’s 10 Ball division. In her three Euro Tour starts this
year, Ivanovskaia has won one and finished runner-up in the other two
and with two more individual golds to be contested, her purple patch may
not yet be over.
The tournament wasn’t all plain sailing for the Russian-born German. She
lost a hill-hill affair at the winners’ qualification stage to the
ever-reliable Eyllul Kibaroglu. She bounced back, beating local hope
Riikka Vayrynen 6-3 to qualify for the single elimination stage. Wins
over Christine Feldmann (SUI) and then compatriot Ina Kaplan got her in
the medals, and a semi-final victory Spain’s Lopez Fibla (claiming her
first-ever EC medal) saw her contest the championship match.
The final against Pia Filler was close in the early stages before
Ivanovskaia pulled away to complete the victory and give herself her
second ever European Championship gold medal.
Veronika said, “It feels amazing as I’m playing really good, really
solid at the moment. I believe my mental toughness is becoming better
and stronger so I’m very pleased with the outcome and that I won the
title in 10 ball.
“I’m having a very good season on the Euro Tour this year so I’m
definitely aiming to go far in the next events but nevertheless we have
great women here from all over Europe so it’s going to be tough,” she
concluded.
Medals – Ladies
Gold – Veronika Ivanovskaia (GER)
Silver – Pia Filler (GER)
Bronze – Eyllul Kibaroglu (TUR)
Bronze – Silvia Lopez Fibla (ESP)
There was glory for Slovenia in the Wheelchair division as Matej
Brajkovic held off the challenge of Finland’s medal machine, Jouni Tahti
by 5-3 to claim his first-ever European Championship gold medal. Tahti,
who had previously claimed an incredible 29 individual gold medals
across the EC disciplines in a stellar career, was the fancied player
and well-supported in the arena.
In fact, it was Slovenia’s first-ever European Championship gold and
although it took a long time coming, it was worth the wait.
“It was hard actually – I was expecting a bit of a chess game which is
what it was at the beginning but then it opened up a bit so I was
fortunate I guess,” said a delighted Brajkovic.
“He’s a very strong player and as soon as he appears your knees are
weakening but this is my 17th European Championships; I skipped a few
but I started 20 years ago so I think finally my time has come. I’ve
achieved what I came her for so the remaining two disciplines are a
bonus!” he added.
Medals – Wheelchair
Gold – Matej Brajkovic (SLO)
Silver – Jouni Tahti (FIN)
Bronze – Emil Malanowski (POL)
Bronze – Henrik Larsson (SWE)
