Match 18 Niels Feijen 5 – 1 Corey Deuel
Match 19 Eklent Kaci 5 – 2 Billy Thorpe
Match 20 Alex Kazakis 3 – 5 Shane van Boening
THE partypoker MOSCONI CUP has changed hands for the first time in eight years as Team USA enjoyed a thrilling and dramatic 11-9 victory at the Alexandra Palace tonight. The last time they lifted the Cup was as long ago as 2009 and it was the same man – Shane Van Boening – who deposited the final 9 ball with a 3/9 combination to beat Alexander Kazakis and win the Cup.
For Van Boening it was his second MC win in 12 starts as his combo secured victory; “I’ve never felt so much pressure in my whole life, it was a guess shot! All those years struggling and we’ve finally won. I’m so proud of these guys and all the fans out there.”
“It means a lot to me. We worked hard together and I learned a lot from all these guys and have become a better player. We all get along and respect each other and the other team and that is important and that’s why we won, through working hard together.”

TEAM USA are just two points away from winning the partypoker Mosconi Cup for the first time since 2009 as they won their third session in a row following a hard-fought evening at the Alexandra Palace. Incredibly, 2005 at the MGM Grand, Las Vegas, was the last time that the USA had won three sessions in a row at the Mosconi Cup.
Having not won for such a long time, America were understandably massive outsiders at the outset of the event but now stand on the brink of a stunning upset as the galvanised team played with heart, grit and a huge amount of skill.

Match 10 Eklent Kaci 3 – 5 Billy Thorpe
THERE WAS more drama on Wednesday evening at the Alexandra Palace as the partypoker Mosconi Cup continued with five more matches. In the end it was another 3-2 session win for Team USA and at the half-way stage, the seemingly impossible American victory is now a possibility.
USA captain Johan Ruijsink said, “After the first match we showed we were a team by picking up the next point immediately and get back in the lead.
“It was a nervous day because it was important that if we won two days, and I know a lot of people wouldn’t have thought this before we started, but we now actually have a chance to win the Mosconi Cup.
“That’s how important it was. We don’t care what they do, we don’t care what the audience does, we don’t care about anybody, we just care about us,” he added.

Match 5 Jayson Shaw 0 – 5 Shane van Boening
In a thrilling night of pool at Alexandra Palace, Team USA got the better of things to run out 3-2 leaders after the first day of the 25th annual partypoker Mosconi Cup. Lead by former European team captain Johan Ruijsink and his trusted lieutenant Jeremy Jones, the Americans showed plenty of resolve to fight back from 2-0 down in some intimidating conditions at the iconic London venue.
Marcus Chamat, the European captain, will have his mettle tested tomorrow as he attempts to revive his team’s fortunes after a sobering second half of the evening where his team won only four of the 19 racks played.
Ruijsink said, “At 2-0 down I wasn’t panicking; we didn’t really get that many chances. If we did get a chance, though, I knew we’d do better because we’d done better these last couple of weeks and months.”

Snooker Supports Paris 2024 Olympic Bid
Billiard sports launched its bid to become part of the Paris 2024 Olympic Sports programme today at a special ceremony at the Eiffel Tower in Paris.
Hosted by the Billiards 2024 Committee and supported by the World Professional Billiards and Snooker Association (WPBSA) and World Snooker, the event represents a significant milestone billiard sports’ bid for inclusion at the Paris 2024 Games.
Among those present were WPBSA Vice Chairman Nigel Mawer QPM and former world professional snooker champion Shaun Murphy, who joined senior representatives from the Fédération Française de Billard (FFB) and other international organisations to support the bid.
Billiard sports previously applied to join the Olympic programme for the Tokyo 2020 Games and three years on is in a significantly stronger position to be successful as cuesports continue to grow globally.
The first step to securing Olympic status for 2024 was taken earlier this year by the World Confederation of Billiard Sports (WCBS), the umbrella organisation representing snooker, billiards and carom, when the formal submission for billiard sports to be included as an additional sport at the Paris Games was made with the full cooperation of the FFB.

PARTYPOKER MOSCONI CUP LAUNCHES FANS’ CHOICE MATCH
For the first time fans watching this year’s partypoker Mosconi Cup will have the power to decide which players face off in a singles match.
The players to contest the first fixture of the second day’s play on Wednesday, December 4th will be chosen by a Fans’ Choice vote, conducted at MosconiCup.com. Fans will be able to select one player from each team with the player from each team who receives the most votes going head-to-head in Wednesday’s opening match.
The Fans’ Choice match has no determining factor on other fixtures, meaning the players taking part in the Fans’ Choice fixture can be chosen again that day by their captains. The Fans’ Choice vote will open on Wednesday, November 28th and close at 5pm on Wednesday, December 5th at www.MosconiCup.com.
Matchroom Multi Sport COO Emily Frazer said: “The Fans’ Choice match is a great new addition to the partypoker Mosconi Cup and we’re all really excited to see who is chosen to play the match.

The Predator Grand Final Will Take Place from January 17-20

The World Pool Series is proud to announce that registration for the Predator Grand Final has been opened. The Predator Grand Final will take place in Steinway Billiards, Astoria, Queens, New York City from January 17-20, 2019.
After a poll on the WPS Facebook page, the fans have decided that the players will be playing 10-Ball during the final event of the 2018 season. With 62%, it was a convincing win for one of the newer disciplines in the pool world and one which has won over the hearts of many fans and players.
With just over $10,000 collected over the first three tournaments, the sponsors will be adding money to take the total added monies to the prize pool up to $25,000 in total. The WPS has taken on the feedback received over the season from the players and fans which prompted us to change the format of the whole tournament. The Grand Final has now been opened up to players of all levels which will be divided into two tiers (organizer’s discretion will be final):
- Tier 1 has been set up for the professional and semi-professional players which will give them access to the Grand Final and the chance to win the estimated first-place prize of $10,000 (based on a field of 128 players).
- Tier 2 gives amateurs, ladies, juniors under 18, and league players a chance to compete against some of the best players in the world for a reduced entry fee. But that’s not all, their entry fee also includes an entry for the Poison Challenge Event which is only open for Tier 2 players who have participated in the Grand Final which will have an estimated prize pool of $2,000.

The 2018 GB9 British Grand Prix
An eventful tournament at Telford this time, as the live streaming computer's video card has melted, perhaps under the strain of Saturday's colourful commentary by the outspoken Chris "Chief Pidgeon" Patient - so a chance of no live streaming of the final on Sunday, but fortunately the GB9 team were able to buy new graphics cards on Sunday, so no disappointment to the many who were looking forward to a day of top flight pool action.
Fortunately, we are able to share this selection of stunning black and white images created by the stylish lens of photographer Lee Rigby - all available to view in the article below, and as always we wish to express our gratitude for Lee's sterling efforts.
