Yu Ram Cha v Allison Fisher Women's 9-Ball Pro Finals Galveston World Classic

[TiNhAMouTiK]

u guys LIKE for YU RAM CHA or the video ==?

[bacardipr05]

She is pretty in a school girl type of way...Yu Ram cha...XOXOXOXO

[pruce]

Wow, try counting how many time Nick Varner says "uh" during the commentary.

When it comes to shooting, and talking pool Nick really knows his stuff, but man he just wasn't cut out to give the play by play... lol

[daveusaz1218]

Miss Cha is an excellent player, where did she go, to the cash tables? N. Varner did a good commentating job but I can't decide if I like the guy or not because I saw him cheat on a televised game, where he stroked the cue ball and then waved his stick to move a blocking ball, and I looked at it several times and my verdict is, he cheated, but hey, he got away with it, so money in the pocket, just like a bankster. Lifetime foul on all balls for N. Varner, LMAO

[Tehbrainlessone]

its about individuals, not men or women, gosh get a grip.... <.<

[xxastudxx]

I am a male pool player and i watch these women play often as i can.

very impressed

very motivational for me

[AMoOoNa19904]

Yu Ram Cha I wish to win on you when I'm playing with you next time :)

[jacxinthebox]

I wouldn't go as far to say men are way better. Women play a different game thats all. The safety play in this match was phenomenal!!

[poolplayer2007]

yea it depends on the ball rolls and ball misses and safety play

[dotamaster123]

okay i skim through the video and saw that, the players did a race to 9 and then a race to 7, and it took them 3 hours to finish, regular race to 9 in men tournament ends in around an hour, they took 2 hours to finish a race to 9, this already show that women can't defeat men in pool consider the pace they play at, overall if you know to play better pool, watching the men's games are more efficient

[pboy6969]

@dotamaster123

So I guess the fact that Yu Ram Cha has beaten Shane Van Boening mean nothing to you... And by your logic, since Ga Young Kim has destroyed an opponent in an 8-ball match (harder and longer than 9/10-ball), wining 7-2, in 35 minutes means that men can't compete with women?

Start living in the 21st century.

[mKoala73]

@dotamaster123 It took 2 hours to finish a race to 9 because they use several minutes before shoot a ball, but tell me how many shoots they missed ?

Start living in the 21st century.

[zzzthaoster]

these ladies are so good

[zzzthaoster]

the quality here if bad...what's going on,?

[schneeaddict]

I would bet the reason is that it doesn't seem out of place or prejudice for separating men and women, where as separating blacks from the rest would be considered unethical. I'm not saying it's a good reason, just that it is the reason, and as I said before, there is a move to bring men and women back into the same tournaments. Another point: the women are helping out the sport gain recognition because they are the ones who get air time on ESPN. That is unless it's trick shots.

[2DD1515]

i like YU RAM CHA!!! SHE's So pretty! :D

[gochujang888]

One of the main reasons why pool is dying is because of the lack of skill in the commentary. One of the commentators is lacking in knowledge and other loves to cough up his dinner onto the microphone.

If the pool industry wants the public to take pool more seriously, it starts from the commentary. How is someone who has an interest in pool going to take this sport as a professional one when the industry hires clowns like these.

[DooMERful]

@gochujang888 too right mate i wish pool can be popular like soccer

[GetMeThere1]

Allison Fisher at least USED to beat all the girls on a regular basis. She's living proof that you must prefer eating clams to be a fairly high level pool player....

[dochmbi]

@grouchysin, Ok I get your point on hand-eye coordination and physical strength, but your second point about there being less women overall so they need a separate group doesn't make much sense, since by the same token we could separate black men into their own group too.

[schneeaddict]

@dochmbi actually there is no biological reason that men are better than women. In fact, professional women are as good as professional men. Even on the break, there is nothing a man have over a women. Good breaks have NOTHING to do with strength, it's all about the proper hit and the SPEED of the hit. It is correct though that the women are separated because they are outnumbered. There is a movement of tournaments including men and women now. Check out Jasmin Ouschan, she is competitive vs men.

[dochmbi]

@schneeaddict If men don't have any inherent biological advantage over women, then why are there separate leagues. That's like saying "Oh, because there are so few black people playing pool they need their own league because otherwise a black man is never going to win a pool tournament and it's unfair" Or insert any other minority you can think of.

[zzzthaoster]

@dochmbi

in this sport women can beat men, it doesn't take power or strenth only precision.

[KarenCorr]

@zzzthaoster Men are wayyyy better.

[hongguitar]

There are no sports in the world that women are better at.

[LeonFleisherFan]

@dochmbi The argumentation we keep hearing here in Europe is that it's more attractive for the female players to have their own league(s), and that there would be (yet?) fewer female players if they "had to" participate in the men's league(s). Of course we'll never find out this way - the situation being doubly comfortable as it is, since nothing keeps women from playing with the men if they like. If it's indeed true, then well, I'm always in favour of more players competing - but still...

[nmbluegrass]

@dochmbi I can't even think of a minority that doesn't have members who can't achieve excellence in pool. If you look at the Bank Pool Hall of Fame, a few of those guys are black. I can't think of a Native American professional off the top of my head, though I've seen some skilled Natives play at my college. Anyways, I think they should experiment with a guy/girl league. It would be interesting.

[syuanrong]

My goodness... a brutal match to sit there and watch. They have to think and commit their shots a lot faster. There's no creativity in their play...

[dochmbi]

Why is pool separated into men and women? Do men have some sort of biological advantage?

[grouchysin]

@dochmbi yes, better hand-eye coordination and physical strength. Many shots (aside from the obvious break) require a combination of coordination and power. Also, non-biologically, far more men play cue sports than women so there's a greater pool (*cringe*) of male players to reach the top level.

[TheNecador123]

@dochmbi  yuuup.

[wlgmail]

Cha Yu-Ram is a great player and I enjoy her games a lot. Of course, Allison Fisher is always the best ^_^

[doody39711]

the most poring brutal video i ever saw

they should be rulls and time cloock for shoot 30 sac. not all day for 16 games

booooooooooooooooooooooooooo

[schneeaddict]

@doody39711 BCA rules do state that a 30 second shot clock can be put into place, however it is up to the official to determine if a shot clock should be imposed. Usually if shots always take long then a clock will be set up. A fair amount of pro tournaments do already have a shot clock in place as part of the general rules.

[jaybanthony]

30 min for 2 games?....wtf.....this is brutal to watch.

[zzzthaoster]

@jaybanthony

and it's a race to 9 too, I thought it's race to 7

[o0J4Y0o]

the host in the beginning looks famaliar... i think hes from Hardtime billiards in Sacramento, CA. anyone else know him?

[japmsn]

Where's the rest? :(

[justinebilliard]

I enjoyed it very much, plus with the Inside Pool Magazine and the Billiard Digest you can read about it while also watching it so it all comes together.

I'm a pretty advanced player and I enjoy watching what they are thinking. Thanks for videos. Dave Justine

[tonofclay3]

I went to Inchon, South Korea for 3 days and I noticed that everyone there plays carom billiards not pocket billiards, I am suprised there is a South Korea that can play pool. Are there any other as good as her?

[poolplayer8910]

@tonofclay3 there is...ga young kim and jeong yeong hwa are 2 professional players from South Korea

[sas1ni69]

Yu Ram Cha rocks =)

[darkiboy2]

how do you make so long vidieo's?

[sas1ni69]

partner

[MacManLtd]

if your a partner you can pass the 10 min limit, as long as the video is under 1GB.

[darkiboy2]

ok tks but ow do you become a partner?

[RossFxx]

You can pass 10mins if you're Director. Like me☺

[MacManLtd]

Does that still work, I thought I tried that and it didn't work for me, just a side note the real limit is 10:59, I've pushed it to the limit a few times :p

[RossFxx]

Well maybe, I've not tried it; so I can't really say that you can go over 10mins. I'm just saying what I heard from other YT users, I.E. comments.
