I'd like to bet Dennis even on Day Three. Day Three result only!
Dennis Orcollo vs SVB (Race to 75) 9 ball (22-24 Sep)
- Thread starter spartan
- Start date
Agreed. Dennis had some minor errors today, but he shows up when he needs to. Tomorrow is the day to watch for sure.
Not to ruin your action...if anyone can come back to win the whole thing (I realize you are only looking to bet last day) it would be Dennis. Most others with 10 game alternate break would pack it in. Having said all that SVB would probably be a 4:1 favorite from here.
i would be hesitant to bet on what seems like mainly an exhibition match. svb insists on rack your own when he gambles, i very much doubt he would go to the philippines and agree to having a local guy racking in a proper money match. the bet is probably insubstantial. but it's still always enjoyable to watch these two play each other
There are dam few other players willing to go to the Philippines and gamble with those guys. I can`t think of anybody at the moment. Give him credit, he has big balls. Another thing to remember is that if Shane is racking his own the other guy is doing the same thing.

there are others actually, this match is part of the philippines vs the world series. alcaide won against orcullo, big ko did too and i think appleton and chang are next.
i would never deny the greatness of svb, he's the world champion for a reason. i'm not questioning the integrity of the ref/racker either, just pointing out that it's a deviation from the usual pattern of how money matches are set up and agreed to.
The difference is Shane has been doing it for years
They made mention at the beginning of the first day SVB offered to play 10 ball but Orcollo declined so this is what they settled on. Basically Derby City breaking rules but a different rack.
Been watchin', too bad the one announcer is typical, states the obvious all the time, very one dimensional.
Mute is definitely in cue.
Otherwise the production is good.
Good tune up for both players, with the Open coming up.
Will D.O. be at the Open/Visa?

he got a new visa but he's still contesting the ban. Jay H. would know current update on this.
Fatigue and play conditions gettin' dirty.....
65-64 now.
Back and forth
I haven't seen a back to back to back to back, etc., barrage of top level pro matches, ever. Good job to Sharks.
