European Championships in Carlow

video streaming

Hi,
I found live-scoring page but... do you know if there is any chance to see live video streaming from Carlow? Is there TV covering?

Hi

we are hoping to do some live-streaming, when we can resolve some technical issues.

Meanwhile there are match videos from table 1 on GCS of a variety of matches, including the Main Tour Play off.

Today we have seen Darren Morgan on table one, also Reanne Evans.,
Later today the match between Tom Gleeson of Ireland and Ian Bowie of Scotland will be up on the GCS event Video pages.

I've been reading reports from Sascha Lippe and Lasse Münstermann on a German forum; thumbs up, guys, great effort! (No idea if they read TSF, though.) I also discovered that the Norwegian champion is there, but not really being a contender for the title. C'mon, lad, for kongen, is, brus og pølse!

Lasse has been having some problems with blackouts and dizzyspells, so I'm quite impressed he's been doing as well as he has been doing. Hopefully he gets it sorted out soon!

Hey Maija, which forum are they posting on? Thanks.

Snookermania (EM section). Oops, forgot to mention that Thomas Beil also writes there.

Wow, great news...

Currently it seems only the following two players are still on course for the big one.

Tomáš Kejla (Czech Rep)
Sergejs Kolcovs (Latvia)


(the big one here being failure to win a frame)

GCS now has their live stream up and running

One of the most exciting players, Michael White, lost 4-5 against Lasse Münstermann yesterday despite making 3 centuries. He also made a 141 in the group stages, the highest break of the Championship so far.
He will be on the Main Tour next season anyway, and I know I'm not the first one who says this, but he does look very promising.

Looking good for Lasse. I wrote earlier that he's been having some health problems, but he's now reportedly back to normal and right now he's playing Jonathan Nelson. 1-0 to Lasse. C'mon, get your maintour ticket now!

I was really stunned to see Münstermann win against White but I think experienced prevailed. Anyway, it was a fantastic match as the Welshman had 3 tons (!!) and a 70 break. Add to this he compiled 141 (HB) and 137 in the group stages...
This boy is really a beast in the making. I can't wait to see him on the Main Tour. He may struggle in the first games at the Pontyn's but biy, this kid has a unbelievable upside...

Who do you think will win?

Personally I am hoping either Munstermann or Haneveer takes the title, although I could also see the possiblity of Kevin van Hove doing a European Championship/European Play-offs double.

[Alex0paul]

I reckon Vincent Muldoon could do it. He has got very close to qualifying for the main tour a few times and he is in his home country. Plus it would be better if Kevin van Hove or Rodny Goggins didn't win as they are already on the tour. At least I think they are.

[rivercard]

Can't really tell who will win it.. The overall standard is quite high, I think everyone has the ability to do it. I hope Brendan O'Donoghue will at least get to the final, I noticed he plays quite fast and fluent snooker.

[Alex0paul]

Well the semi final line up is;

Vincent Muldoon V Kevin van Hove
Rodney Goggins V Bjorn Haneveer

If both Muldoon and Haneveer lose which player will be given the main tour spot? I would hope that Muldoon would get it as Haneveer has never done anything when he has had his chance.

Also Rodney Goggins is surely the best name in snooker.
