It ain't enough...........Filler is BBQing him 9-3!
Shaw was up 3-0 then fired at a 9-ball combo and missed.
Filler 9 games in a row; Kid looks so relaxed and calm.........
well put, JAM. you're quite a librettist.
i think i have seen aloysis yapp play, he was the bigger of the singaporian duo at WCoP last year?

American pool is a lap down on the Asians and euros, sadly.
I hear you. I just like America to do well. This is the only sport I follow and like the "home team" does well. Plus I love the way those three men play (minus the melt downs one tends to have these days).
They are saying on the stream that the Kos and CJL went to the same school in Taiwan and played pool with a school sponsored program. That kind of formal training and competition growing up is incredible and a good reason why they're on top...among other things.

This Sanchez Ruiz has game. I like the way he's breaking. With more power than some others tbis week. It's working out so far.

the break is clearly the biggest reason he is in the top 16
Trust me: you, JAM and I can form a barbershop quartet. Our first hit single will be USA! USA! USA!
Coz tritet isn't a word.
Alex v. Yapp <-- what a match! It could have gone either way. Both players fell down a few times, but Alex pulled it off.
I loved the way Alex fist-pumped Yapp right before the last game, to remove the tension. That was a show of good sportsmanship by Alex. That's why we all love Alex Pagulayan. :lovies:
I have to objectively believe SVB to be the favorite.
Plays tomorrow vs J. Wu.

Since Filipinos are technically "Asians" too, the pool scenario in the Philippines is totally different - playing money games all day on dirty, slow tables. Not to mention the hot unventilated poolrooms, squawking chickens and loud karaoke. :grin-square:
