Sylver Ochoa. How old is he anyway? Also, Justin Cone (Roadman)

I was going to say Sylver also. I think he is 22 or 23. Pretty good for being so young. I don't know that roadman plays even with Sylver, but I have only seen him play at the derby.
 
Thanks Lenny - I am getting old. Joey Gray.

Sylver is a great choice and one I completely forgot.

Yes Sylver I think is the top dog among the guys under 25, getting 9-7 from Frost speaks a ton about how strong he is, very well could be top 10 one pocket player in the country I am thinking but I could be wrong as I am half the time. :o
 
Man, you guys are good. I was going to say Sylver but ten of you beat me to it.
 
What is considered young?

I heard a rumour of one American recently getting 9-8 from an old toothless guy, playing cheap, and winning.
 
I concur with the SO sentiments. Watched him play SF at HB year before last at the Swanee. Great player!!!!!
 
I think Sylver Ochoa and Joey Gray would be a great one pocket match to stream. Who knows maybe Big Truck could get that match together and stream it.

And here is my bold prediction (I rarely make prediction). Chip Compton is going to make some serious noise at the big tourny over the next few years. This kid is scary good and getting better every day.
 
All of the players already named, with Sylver probably being the best, and also....

Beau Runningen
Adam Smith
Scott Rabon


- Ghost

PS, And watch out for SVB, on the horizon.
 
Shane McMinn and Nick Vita are two others....I like shanes game over Joey, Chip and Nick but thats just me...if they leave him something to shoot at. But I do think Joey moves very very good and he makes great choices and is good about not losing his head...chip is very similar also. But shanes a shooter, if you don't leave him nothing he can't move to something.

Shane is just a monster when he wants to be and thats a fact, the guy could be another Buddy or Archer if he wanted.
