Piasecky did not qualified for World Cup Finals 08. Nov 2004
Samuel Piasecky in Slovak Television

Samuel Piasecky
  On December 11-12 Birmingham (GBR) will host 12th FIG Artistic World Cup Final. After great results in La Serena (CHI) Sep 11 - 1st place on parallel bars and 2nd place on high bar, in Glasgow on Oct 31 - 6th place on parallel bars and yesterday 4th places on parallel bars and high bar in Ghent Nov 7, is there a chance for Samuel Piasecky (pictured from Sport News at Slovak Television STV Nov 8th and on our picture taken Jan 14 2003 - Isn't it the same picture?) to qualify for World Cup Final?
  Unfortunately the answer in "NO". This talented gymnast from Kosice (coach Jozef Ducak) who trains now in Slavia UK Bratislava (coaches Martin Zvalo - Jozef Konecny) is in the latest parallel bars rank list published by FIG today - Nov 8th on 18th place with 74 points and he takes 23rd place with 50 points on high bar which is not enough for World Cup Final. Nevertheless his recent performance proves that Piasecky became one of the best PB and HB specialist in the world.
