Scott definitely has the knowledge advantage in this matchup, while Dennis gets the nod in the execution department. The problem with someone who can execute at the world class level like Dennis is -- he can somewhat nullify the knowledge gap by playing without a shot clock. Dennis plays one-pocket pretty slow and if he can study the table forever he will eventually find a shot. I think this is the major problem with one-pocket. The real beauty of the game shines through when a guy like Scott can step to the table and immediately see the shot and get on with it. It's not beautiful, but more like watching paint dry, when someone like Dennis come to the table and studies for 5 minutes only to shoot the shot most of us saw before he even got out of his chair.
So I don't think I read anywhere that there will be a shot clock.
No shot clock = Dennis wins.
