It's with a heavy heart we share this video of Amar Kang and Fedor Gorst from 2021. The match was played in Amar's home pool room at Hard Times Billiards of Sacramento in Sacramento, California.
Rest easy, Amar. You will be missed dearly.

Another great tournament at Hard Times Billiards of Sacramento comes to an exciting conclusion!
Congratulations to James Aranas for taking first place and the $5,500 prize!
The weekend tournament began with a heart warming, loving remembrance of Brendan Crockett, whose life was lost way too soon five years ago. Oscar Dominguez, Sal Butera, Tyler Styer and Melissa Helland were on stage to talk about Brendan's life and his continued legacy.
The tournament began after the moving and tearful presentation of the recreated Predator/Jacoby custom pool cue Brendan played with that was also lost in the tragic car accident and fire. Tyler worked closely with Predator's owner, Karim, and the Jacoby Cues team to make this recreation possible.
The tournament brought some of the best players in the world to compete on our live stream this past weekend. During the two-day event, we had over 10,600 comments and reactions from nearly 241,000 viewers who were watching from 10 countries including Australia, Germany, Philippines, Canada, Vietnam, India, Columbia, Peru, Singapore and all across the entire United States.
Together, we were a pool loving community and it was truly magical at times! An astonishing combined total of 642,063 minutes were viewed world-wide during this two-day live-streamed tournament!
We had great commentary in the booth with us including professional players Roberto Gomez, Omar AlShaheen, Oscar Dominguez and Tyler Styer, to name just a few. The discussions and insight from these amazing players was simply fantastic!
Along the way, my son, Steven Taylor was keeping the viewers engaged with responses to their comments in the Facebook and Twitch forums. Collins Newey and I were handling the majority of the commentary while behind the scenes, Michael Sammon was wrangling pro players into the booth and keeping the DigitalPool tournament bracket updated throughout the entire weekend.
As you can see, it takes a team of dedicated people to make an event like this as entertaining as it was.
We want to thank Desiree Dominguez for organizing and running the tournament and Oscar Dominguez along with their amazing staff for their welcoming hospitality at Hard Times Billiards during this exciting event. Without their excellent dedicated coordination and teamwork, none of this would have been run so smoothly.
We will be back at Hard Times all weekend starting this Friday at 6pm Pacific Time to stream the California State BEF (Billiard Education Foundation) Junior 9-Ball Open tournament with an added prize fund of $10,000. Every dollar of this prize money will go directly to the juniors in this event.
We hope you will tune in and help us support and cheer on these upcoming young men and women!
Hard Times Billiards 3rd Annual Brendan Crockett Memorial 10-Ball Open Tournament - $10,000 Added!
Our first Pay Per View event comes to a successful conclusion!
The 3-day match between Oscar Dominguez and Omar Alshaheen had the wide range of emotions you would expect from reading any great book. I want to thank them both for leaving everything they had on the table. It was a close, hard fought battle from the very beginning and the ending did not disappoint!
Omar takes it 100-98 for the $40,000!
Thank you Oscar and Omar!
I want to thank our sponsors for this match. Without your support and funding, none of this would have happened. Thank you to Colby Frontiero and Reed Merschat with Salotto, Hard Times Billiards of Sacramento, Cue It Up Network, Adam Stickles, Jeff Trevarthen, Molina Mike, Young guns wear, Renew Cali Solar, Billiards Blvd, fast&loose designs, PoolDawg.com and Dynaspheres.

Oscar and Desiree Dominguez - your hospitality, sincerity, caring and friendship with us and everyone around you is contagious! You both set the bar so high and it inspires others, myself included, to strive to push on and keep up. It's an absolute honor and privilege working together with you both.
Michael Sammon - you are a video editing master! Your behind the scenes eye for magic and fire is inspiring! Thank you for stepping up and providing content and input very few in this industry dare to attempt!
I want to recognize my son, Steven Taylor, for all of his technical wizardry, demonstrating grace under fire, successfully managing a challenging production and being the quiet voice behind the curtain pulling the strings. Without you, my son. none of this would ever be possible. I love you.
Finally, you the viewers and supporters. We, here at Aaron's Pool Parlor, are constantly looking for ways to improve our live stream. We listen to YOU because we are here to serve YOU. Thank you for watching, sharing your input on enhancements and for supporting us and pushing us to do better.

We were planning to live stream these events at Hard Times this weekend, but unfortunately we won’t be able to attend. I’ve been battling a severe flu all week and still have a lingering cough and chest congestion. Fortunately, my Covid test was negative.
We wish everyone the best of luck this weekend and we look forward to the next big event at Hard Times next month.

Filming a commercial here tonight for a local web developer’s small business!
We are very sorry to announce today’s live stream is cancelled.
Steven woke up with allergy/cold/flu symptoms and we made the difficult decision to stay home to be on the safe side.
We hope you understand and we look forward to the next event soon.
Good luck to all of the players in the tournament today!
