Dennis has bet his own more times than you can imagine, sometimes for thousands per game! He is on Shane's short list of guys to avoid and as for Justin B. that's another match that will never happen for obvious reasons.

Are Bergman and Shane close friends?
No, but Dennis and Justin are.
Justin and SVB match is in the works now and might happen soon
Justin made post not long ago asking for action.
Justin said he would play SVB or anybody else.
Shane was one of the only players that responded and said he would play.

Be careful what you ask for!
Robs him?????????
That's a very strong term, my friend.
I'd say SVB is about a 10% favorite....but ROBBING Dennis is not a wise thing to be thinking.
And there's plenty of pressure. No player wants to lose his backer(s) because he dogged it.
Jay, I would like your opinion. I can understand why the Taiwanese are so good, as they have a national team and training routine. Why are the Philipinos so outstanding? Is it just the conditions they play, or do they have a practice regiment that gives them an edge? Sorry if this is hijacking the thread.
You cant say it is one thing.
Exposure to greatness, ego, need, desires to have some things and to avoid others, etc...
And those are just internal elements.
Like I said....
I look at many of the Pinoys as being pool hustlers, not like in the movies, but more refined.
So who is the best One Pocket player, Alex or Dennis. I doubt we will ever know. One thing I do know is the Pinoys are clannish, they are loyal to each other, it is the world of pool against them!
Why are the Pinoys so good. It is not like they have and opportunity for a bunch of high paying jobs in the PI and they are not going to make it in the NBA or NFL and only a few hit the big time in boxing, but I believe they have proven to be ferocious fighters when pissed off!
So for some pool is and opportunity to make money and they are hungry. Pro boxing in the U.S. is dominated by "minorities" who are hungry, they see a chance at fame and fortune and go for it.

This is closer to the truth. Pool is a way to escape the crushing poverty that so many suffer in the Philippines. Although a few of the top players (Parica and Lee Vann to name two) come from better homes, the great majority of the top Pinoy players started out dirt poor. The story of Efren is a well known one in the Philippines, a poor kid who became rich and famous because of his ability to play pool well.
In the poolrooms over there if you lose you may literally be sleeping on the street, or at least in a corner of the poolroom. One thing they learn from an early age is to help each other out when one of them makes a score, even a small one. A player who forgets this will soon be ostracized by his countrymen.

Alex winning every day....yep. That's what I think.
Tony's (and Scott Frost) style of one-pocket "wows" the crowd, but in a long race, the more traditional style of Alex will prevail. While not as strong as Efren (in his prime), Alex has better cue ball control and a winning technique.
But on the other hand, if Tony's gambles start to pay off, it might be a different story.
Ken
I think this format favors Tony's aggressive style where he can come out with his fast and loose play and not worry about getting behind big early.
Since it's a new race each day everyday will be exciting to watch.Great format for sidebets and sweaters imo
I think we are all in for one hell of a match to sweat going 4 or 5 days imo.
Anyway I'll take Big T , I'ma stick with American player on this one sir ! What do you wanna bet ? And I'm gonna be there if you wanna come play me some to try and get your cash back !lol
