BILLY THORPE VS DAVID ALCAIDE | Match 13 | Highlights | 2024 BetOnline Mosconi Cup

[@tomaszhoekstra7357]

Still hilarious that this is the best the US has to offer. And Europe put in the B team and is killing.

[@G35Jeff]

You’re not wrong, but it is one country versus an entire continent. Europe has double the population. Any single European country vs. the US would be a struggle for that other country. Facts!

[@bootypounderzzz4313]

I mean it is a country vs a continent

[@rockort3330]

Why we talking abt continents and countries? Lol have nothing to do with that. They just have better players. US players didnt show up to play.

[@bootypounderzzz4313]

@ I mean Shaw should’ve been on team USA but something happened with his citizenship so that didn’t happen after all obviously . US never shows up to play

[@napostrophen]

Tyler is the only American with a solid break on this table this Mosconi

[@shortydancer]

2:08 some scrub tries to shark David while he's stroking. But when Billy got the same, the crowd boo'd lol. Come on guys.

[@napostrophen]

Idk. Maybe it was the difference between talking and making a high pitched whistle🤔

[@Anonomousxxx]

US crowd constantly shout and make noises when Europe is at the table When USA team plays it's almost always silence

[@bmac7885]

@@napostrophen Talking!? The crowd have been yelling and booing on every European visit to the table, the players have to stand up and refocus on nearly every shot due to crowd disrespect

[@D.TruthRaven]

hahahahahahahahahahahahhaha, poor me, poor me, pour me another and hush up, you know better than that?

[@jacobeppler2181]

We should’ve picked Oscar

[@scoobsmagoo7677]

The audience needs to be spoken to by referee. No noise period when player goes down on shot period!!!!!!!! I don't want to win because one of my fans screamed at my apponent while shooting.

[@EliteComments-w7s]

It’s the Mosconi.

[@breeze7863]

Europe is worse lol, shut the shit up

[@louisbuzzi869]

I miss Makayla Tabb, she kept the crowd in check, so to speak, plus she's pretty.

[@grumpygrandad1216]

USA have been calling out when we are down on a shot and nothings said, Europe do it once and get hammered for it 🤷‍♂️ And no I don’t agree with it at all

[@MedicatedActivities]

It’s kind of embarrassing that America only has one cheer lol it’s really all they got at this point

[@seanscanlon9067]

20:10 - The commentator saying that wasn't the best but I think Billy was trying to pocket the two-ball into the right-hand centre pocket, as we look at it.

[@dikshensutaria7]

exactly I dont think that billy would be so far of the top right pocket if he was trying to pocket the ball in that. But both played well

[@seanscanlon9067]

@@dikshensutaria7 Yeah and he left shape on the three-ball too.

[@madmarvdesigns]

Recently the US has been reaching record low fertility rates so probably in the 2030s the US will destroy Europe but right now most European and East Asian countries have super low fertility rates so they have lots of players with no kids and lots of spare time a big advantage over the US many people in the US have like 3+ kids

[@wadefallat7683]

There is a healthy passion in both areas. Pretty sure Mosconi would approve. Cheers!

[@louisbuzzi869]

One if by land, two if by sea. Anyone get it?

[@shortydancer]

Should have been Oscar! Honestly, it seems like he gets pushed over every year. It's disappointing. Last time we got Oscar, he got paired up with Earl, ugh.

[@patoa3481]

They could have even gone for Sam Henderson

[@truonglongnguyen2148]

@@patoa3481 not sure if Sam is ready yet. Shane Wolford seemed solid last year

[@bernhardhnida3038]

The American players shall be more sportsman like and calm their own US crowd.

[@D.TruthRaven]

foul at 1min 50 second that was a PUSH SHOT all the way???? Where was the ref on that?

[@cpm4778]

David "soft break" Alcaide

[@madmarvdesigns]

The only reason Europe performs better is because their fertility rate has been lower than the US' for a long time now so more players with no kids and lots of spare time

[@gerarddresch712]

Maybe they shouldn't of Screwed over Oscar Again?

[@duanegrimes8662]

Europe is just breaking better

[@blueak3339]

billy played good honestly, just got a couple bad rolls. good match.

[@udtojanpestillos2094]

Sad for Barry. He is a Triple Crown Runner Up. He is just not the man for finals when you look at his stats. Also a bit unlucky with his final draws. Had to play prime Sullivan in 2013, Prime Higgins in 2018, Prime Robertson and Trump in 2022. Hopefully he will get one, maybe at the masters if he can keep up this form.

[@someguywhocanfly]

Wrong video mate?

[@ToBeHonestWitchu]

I love pool trust me but what’s with this corny ass music 😂😂

[@jhorennlim7367]

This should've been Oscar, instead good ol boy system was used to pick a player. USA will never win the Mosconi Cup in the coming years.

[@freedomforthebrave]

Americans need to stop that usa usa usa thing lool ridiculous 😂

[@masterollers]

CONFUSED why we not seeing full match instead of 20 mins clips. This bs taken out how Pro use defense and patterns to next shot. Horriable reduced to watching youtube commerisls run longer this is bs as fuc... Not helping the sport to see a match reduced to watching microwave cook. I cant be only person annoyed by this bs SUPER ANNOYED We wsit a full year to watch Mosconi then get this bs 20 min clip Ridiculous Un-reward... So copy this and paste thid on every Mosconi clip will get their attention ss some bs

[@EliteComments-w7s]

I agree. The edited games are trying to appeal to short attention spans, but fail to tell the story of each match. I would prefer contiguous long form content, no jump cuts.

[@masterollers]

@EliteComments-w7s KEY as yousaid.made formpeople.bored as babbling know as spoiler alert sd a chicken chasing with ADDA hyper.nerds. This seem tonstarted about 4 years ago at.current rate will lose sponsors. As The Olympic draws eyes all over the world sponers will say no cares for finding it biring to watch.

One main father was word of miuth to Pool Fans in leagues to watch APA 8 bsll, 9 ball leagues, youth leagues, straigh pool League as TAP, Nation Tourments held across countrynevery 17 week after tropies. 3 x 17 of 51 weeks a year and Holiday Breaks.

Later will find no one cares.for this bs The gall the nerve gumption that this is creating Intrest. Its not - we want to see our favories as SBV Fendet coach JJ annoncer. Super Sad the Players recruited to travel and time ben tsken away. By Corp meddling thus sponsors will drop off. To force viewers to pay preview watch will backfire. I Learn watch masters cue tip upclose camera work. To making cue, draw etc. Then, I repeat feat practing now become boring by micro wave clips jipping viewers how their doing these fests. Again by major sponsors force us to pay to view. And we miss rooting and intros and crowd response and the pageantry of event. Likr the Superbowl. These corp people sold us out jipping our fun. By greedy back stage Corp tactic to make us watch by pay preview AND - I cant be the only person feeling the same...

[@celestialsamurai2042]

Maybe because it just aired? They want people to buy the pay per view to watch it live or go there and buy tickets. That's like saying "I'm pissed I can't watch a full movie that just came out for free". Com'on, use your brain. You're lucky Matchroom was gracious enough to even put these out this quickly considering it just happened today. People complaining and have no clue what they're talking about.
