Aranas vs. Filler Ten Ball

Are those balls Centennials?
Predator Arcos II balls
Bragging rights! :smile:
Someone mentioned 12grand.
There's money in the middle from backers and side bettors, I think they said $16k or something
It was 59-53 Filler when James had a 6 ball skid and hang. Filler ran out to go 60-53, then broke and ran the next 6 to close out day two 66-53 on an unfinished run. This might be the best 10 ball run I've ever seen and it's in progress until tomorrow! Two jump shots on the 1, a 1 ball so tough I didn't even consider offense, and a lot of tough shots. What a beast!
I don't know if SVB can get there with this kid. Filler's break is at least as good and he's hungry and playing like a darned machine. I couldn't get much action on Filler this set but if he wins I feel like I win two bets. The one I made, and the one I saved from seeing this and not betting SVB if they match up. I'm a believer.

Filler blew him up today! He just dominated those balls like only a really great player can. He made them do his bidding. 
Many good shots but my favorite was when he broke up that six-nine duo near the end today. He made a very hard shot look easy.

I'll nominate the title of this match as the greatest ever match title:
The Quarantine 10-ball Duel
Seriously, does it get any better than this title? It's a match title I'll never forget, even though I haven't been watching.
Most of the credit goes to Roy's Basement here, but bravo to Aranas for taking on a stone cold killer like Filler and also to Josh for playing a great, in form player on his home table, but Filler has, to some extent, developed his strong pedigree by regularly matching up with the top Asian players. Also, I don't know if Filler has ever played a long race before, so win or lose, he's gaining some great experience here.
Both of these players are representing our game well, and I commend them both. Good luck to both of them in Session 3 tomorrow.

Aranas doesn't have enough sustained firepower to hang with Filler in a really long race of winner breaks.
Short races, another story. Toss up. Especially if they play alternate breaks.
