Hakes V Bryant Game 4 - Commentary by Hakes and Bryant. by Aiken Hakes

Morning all,

We have a beautiful sunny morning here in the Mount with 3 spectators and a manager watching on the sidelines, only the die hard fans are left remaining.

Greg has continued his laid break after hitting a "stunning" 28 yarder lift shot in the dark last night, he is well in control of this break.

Approaching 2 back looking like an NSL is being laid with K at hoop 4, K is my 4 - back ball

Correct line of play would be for me to move K but i'm going to put all my eggs in a basket and have a crack with BL which is for hoop 1.

23 Jan 2017 7:43AM (Tournament); 6 Readers

NSL laid Greg will now take over. Nice turn by Greg.

Morning all, from this do-it-yourself NZ Open Final conclusion. Black at H4 is almost full ball open from the end of A Baulk. Aiken is lifting his Blue from 2 and taking it on. Mind the eggs Aiken,,,
