Congratz to both of them. Thanks for the commentators, knowing both of them are competitors adds more to their comments.

The commentary on this is fantastic. Had no idea what carom was and the depth and approachability is brilliant

intriguing sport, never knew it existed. excellent commentary made it very easy to follow, thanks to everyone involved

Truly amazing play. Ive never seen this before but the production and the commentary makes this REALLY easy to follow and super enjoyable. Love it.

Very good commentary, easy to follow, entertaining and informative.

Very nice commentary, big thanks David and Jop 😃

I tried this before a few times... let me tell you how difficult it is what they are doing if you have not tried it yourself.. they are making miracles on that table 😨

The felt is so fast it looks crazy, what an interesting billiards variation

Honestly… 3 cushion billiards, all the tricks shots, exhibition shots and artistic figures are just so beautiful to watch, LOVE it to bits ❤️ This sport feels both high class tradition and futuristic at the same time Crazy stuff and utmost pleasurable to watch

He isn't ranked even though he is somewhat active in 3 cushion (He was knocked out 40-15 in the last 16 at the East Asian Games last month.) He plays it occasionally (without much result it seems) but that's about it.

One of the commentators (Jop de Jong) occasionally plays pool as well. And Florian Kohler (the Venom) plays trickshots on both billiard tables and pool tables.

Beautiful performance. Bravo Yaman.

Really enjoyed watching. Congratulations to the deserved winner!

This discipline is incredible

What a finesse player Yaman is

1:12:52 this is a valid shot, even though it was tricky to see. we do see at the end of the replay, that the cue ball is spinning with left english. with that in mind, we had: short cushion, long cushion counter spin, short cushion, red. if we were hitting the long cushion first, we would go around the table counter clockwise.

Never play for cash with these guys. Amazing skill and years of practice

Artistic !! Absolutel

I have never seen this before - it was interesting and clearly needs massive amounts of skill

I've never seen this version of Billiards before, very interesting.

It would make sense to reduce a point for each attempt, rather than make a 3rd attempt the same as a first attempt.

I see where you're going with this, but if they get it right 1st time i think there is some luck involved. Never played any carom but I guess part of the skill is the ability to adapt on the fly. You play a shot, observe the result and go "Aah, the cloth is a little too slick, lemme aim more there" and then nail your second try. So I guess both formats would be ok, but this one works pretty well IMO.

For each player there are too many shots and possibilities to make the score. Even if the player is played long time, there are still figures that he/she did not try in the tournaments. Even the player try the shots in the practices, the tournament pychology and stress are the changer factors for the players. So that, the first attempts are usually see the possible outcomes after the hitting the ball that what in his/her mind. Second attempts are making sure that the changes effect correctly and the third one is the actual shot. If you noticed Heinrich at a point, I don't remember the exact time, he let go the second attempt. Because he saw that he won't gonna make it. Although the outcomes are predictable, spin, speed, stroke power and the height level of the cue is changes the outcome very easly. Most of time they are object the referee to make sure the balls are in the correct places.

I kind of like your thoughts. I was initially thinking that if the first player gets it in one try, then the opponent must do it in one try. If the first player takes three attempts, then the opponent can steal the point by hitting in less than 3 shots. That would create a very dramatic game, in my opinion.

Beste Jop, gratis lesje Engels: bij did en didn’t moet je het hele werkwoord gebruiken. Aan did en didn’t horen we namelijk al dat het over de verleden tijd gaat. Dus ‘Did he make it?’ ‘I didn’t think so.’ En geen ‘Did he made it?’ ‘I didn’t thought so.’ Verder genoten, hoor. 😁 PS de ush in cushion klinkt hetzelfde als in push.

1:33:12 başkanım haha abi ❤ Tebrik ederim

Heinrichs shot at about 1:12:00 is obviously hitting the short rail first. If long rail were hit first - white ball would take different path hitting the opposite long rail significantly higher up - or differently put, closer to the player - given the white ball's obvious amount of left english / left side spin. Actually I'm a bit surprised that one of the guys commenting doesn't realize this, when it's quite easy to determine, simply by following the "route" or direction of the white ball after the first rail is hit.

Me when I first starting watching this: This is so stupid. Who thought this was a good idea? How is this competitive? How is this a sport? Me 1 hour 35 minutes and 38 seconds later: 🧐 What an incredible display. Yaman put out an amazing effort and really earned his win, but both of them played absolutely admirably. Truly masters of their craft. Also, hats off to the commentary; they really know what they're doing. Their efforts provide to the uninformed viewer such a wealth of information... ahem, not to me of course _dabs at the sweat on his brow_ I've been following the sport for utter aaages, but for the general masses they are truly a boon.

It's interesting that these guys are using Back Hand English, though I suspect they aren't aware of it. It would benefit them by becoming more familiar with their pivot point if they aren't already. Seems with these cues and this heavy Cue Ball, the pure pivot point is around 7 inches from the bridge contact. In US pool it's 10 to 15, depending on tip end mass, in snooker, 12 to 15. In UK pool, also around 8 inches with 9mm tip, thinned brass ferule, due to light CB. This allows a player to alight through center CB then swipe for sidespin and hit the desired aim.

No, on the contrary. During the tournament, the spots from which the cue ball is struck will start to show a certain amount of wear, especially with massé and piqué shots The starting position of the shots for left-handed players is mirror image of that of right-handed players. Since there are few left-handed players, the spots will show much less wear.

Heinrich is really stiff on draw shots.
