          They don't use the same tables as the tournaments in the UK.

          • I was pretty sure I'd read about the humidity making the tables slow in an interview, I can't remember which player mentioned it tho...

              the German commentator mentioned the humidity as a reason as well

                  I'm not too sure but I think it was Hendry that mentioned it in a post match interview

                          • The table lights give off a lot of heat too. I wonder if they use special lighting that emits a low level of heat. An invention like that would make a fortune so I must see if its a registered patent. If not I'll draft an abstract and declaration this evening ready to file in the morning.

                                Its not a direct link. You have to download TVU and the channel is on there.
