How would philippino players fare against earl on 10' table?

The correct spelling is Filipino.

And against Earl, they wouldn't understand what he is saying and beat him all the same. I don't know how rough it was for Earl growing up, but the Philippines grow tough players, guys from half way round the world gutsy enough to come to America. They know they got game, especially considering the limitations on their English, it counters Earl's yapping. It would be comedy for them.
 
Just hoping all you guys picking against Earl on that particular 5x10 are willing to put your money where your mouths are. The table was brutal and he made it look like it was easy for long stretches in the match.

Shane actually caught a gear on day 2 but couldn't manage to hold onto to it or find it again for long........

I think alot of the Phillipino players would beat Earl on the 10ft. They would not miss as many shots as Shane did against Earl. I also think Ralph Souquet would beat Earl on the 10ft.

In order, I like Dennis Orcullo, Lee Van Corteza, Alex P., Ronnie Alcano and Francisco over Earl on ANY table! The filipinos can shoot with either hand and are adapt with the bridge. If Earl wants to play any of these guys, I will be taking all bets. They are a little different animal than Shane and will not be so easily sharked. If Earl plays any one of the above a similar long match, he will be crying like a baby before it's over. Of course rule number one will be that Earl must wear a muzzle! :grin:

And you would loose. Good luck with your loosing bet. No one in the world would have beat Earl on that date, on that table, with the equipment available. NO ONE. There is not one person in all of history that could or would have beat Earl this past weekend.

Now, I am not a huge Earl fan, not by any means. ANY means. But Earl out played Shane, and Shane is one of the top guys to have ever held a cue.

When Shane is DONE, he will have been the best there ever was, people will say Mosconi what? Who? Are you serious? Will be what people say when they compare the greats.

SO, with that being said, No one in the world could have beat Earl on that table, he was in dead punch. DEAD punch. Nothing was stoppping him from winning.

I like Earl in this format on the 10 footer. Many players that have not played on one of these would not know the problems you encounter.

I have. At Raytown Rec in Raytown Mo they have one of these they call Big Bertha. I ran 4 racks on this the first time I played on it and Doug Brink told me that is very rare. I played a few more times on it and understood what he meant.

Earl shoots with that one eye and I think that gives him an edge as far as the shooting ability on long difficult shots. The players that shoot with that one eye have a distinct advantage over the players that shoot with two in regards that they don't have to worry about the non dominant eye working like the dominant eye a little and screwing up the vision of the shot.

I liked Earl in this matchup from the start. If they had an 11 footer he would be the hands down favorite.

I've worked with about 70 of these players that truely shoot with one eye and with alot of work can get very deadly with their shooting. The other eye never gets in the way. They don't even know what an advantage they have because they can't see what it is like to try and shoot with the eyes fighting over the dominant position.

i like earl against anyone that shoots with 2 eyes.

That young guy Mora shoots with one eye also. But he is left eyed but right handed. Earl is right eyed and right handed giving him an advantage there also because the head and right eye are right there. Mora and players like him that are opposite eye dominant but shoot one eyed have to shift their head over alot more to get under the dominant eye.

Again advantage Earl.

I like Earl all day on that 10 footer.

Nothing personal but is there any hardcore evidence that this one eye,left eye,right eye dominate stuff really works,or is it just for people that dont play very good hopeing for a short cut to the top.

Wrong. You are right that Shane is likely to become a great in this game. But never will he be appreciated over Efren, not in my books at least... And wrong, there are many players in the world who could've beat Earl on that table, Shane being one of them. On this occasion he was just not prepared yet. And Tokyo-Dave, Manalo is a good bet.
 
blah blah SVB was supposed to beat Earl...

now 10 other people could beat Earl on a !0'

whatever war Earl !!
 
Back in 92/93/94 (can't remember exact year) a pro tournament was held at Champ's Billiards or CJ's Billiard Palace as it was called later! Earl was practicing on the 5x10 with double shimmed pockets and some were talking how no one could challenge him on the 5x10. I heard he ran 7 racks while practicing on it. All the pro's were there and no one would step and challenge him on it in 9-ball. The Filipinos (Praica & Reyes) want to play him one pocket on it but not 9-ball.
Praica matched up with Amarillo Slim in one pocket and CJ was matched up with Johnny Archer . At that time they all were playing great!
 
Proof is in seeing for yourself............

Sure it works. Over 500 testimonials. Players all over the world playing better than ever before.

I get phone calls and PM's everyday saying I won this and I won that.

I guess you could call it a shortcut. It just gives you the natural ability to see the shot correctly whether your a beginner all the way up the ladder to the pro level.

It's very safe for me to claim that it will cut your misses in half almost immediately after you learn and understand how this works no matter what level your game is at.

There could be 5,000 testmonials and some players would still say, I wonder if it works.

100% money back guarantee. How strong is that.

Personal help with a phone call if there is any problem understanding how it works.

We are all the same and the eyes all work the same. Someone just had to figure out how to make it work for everyone.

The answers are all there for those that want to look and learn.

I can't believe that players are still using those old maple shafts after I tried the predator? they probably never tried one or if they did they didn't know how to adjust.

I can't believe everyone isn't using a kamui after I tried one about 2 days ago? They never probably tried one or they would still be using it.

When I walk into a poolhall and I see 100 players and know what I have to teach will help each and everyone of them tremendously.

I think to myself. If they only KNEW???????????

And once they learn they don't want anyone to know this especially if they have to play them every week.

It is what it is!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I like Earl against anyone one that 5 x 10 table.

He just beat the guy that's winning everywhere for crying out loud.

I still say advantage Earl on the 10 X 5 table.
