I've been keeping an eye on what's happening at the IPT event, and it looks as though the cream is rising to the top. Yesterday, Efren goes undefeated. As it gets close to the end, the players with the stamina, and that truly love to play {coupled with that burning desire to win} are still playing. I have to pick Efren to win this event.
Do you think one of the others can beat him. I look for Efren and Marlon in the final. What a match that will be. No disrespect to Marlon's game. It will be a much better matchup that Sigel was.

Oh, I think it would be safe to say that whoever Efren plays from here on out had better not miss a single ball and better break better than he had ever imagined. No pressure though!
 
Although I love Efern's game, I'm going to take Marlon on this one. He is playing as steady as anyone ever has the last two tournaments. Great statistics. It is his time!
 
I pick Efren too. With vs the biggest prize money on the line, records shows that he always win it. He's always lucky like that.

My finals pick:
Reyes vs Manalo or Reyes vs Orcullo.

I wished I was there to watch it but I went instead to the Philippines, I hope there's some pool in here. :D
 
Evgeny or Efren

I just don't won't to see the Kiaser win again this soon after enjoy pool 9 ball, he needs some personality like EARL THE NC PEARL.
 
I posted moments ago in another thread, who ever has the stamina, mentally, physically, and how about the back and the feet getting weak. These players have never been through this much play, with this much at stake for this many hours I just hope the final match doesn't have one of the two players spent, I pick Thorston to win it. It takes a great player to run over 400 in straight pool and 8-ball and 14.1 are kissin cousins.
 
i was there all week watching these guys. efren will win if he can get something goin on his break. he just isn't missing balls, damn. the others all play solid, they will have to NOT let efren shoot or try to get into a safety battle with him. based on what i have been watching, i pick efren.
 
My pick was efren but it looks like he is fading. Manolo is turning it up a notch. He has a 50% break and run average in two matches so far.
 
Great Pick

Thorsten H. all the way, he is such a solid player, great focus.
What a great tourney this has turned out to be. I wish there was a way I could be there to watch this final. It's hard to say, considering the outstanding play from Marlon, but's he's the underdog in this next match. With the stamina and skill these 2 have shown this week, who would you bet on this?
While I think Thorsten has a slight edge with experience and his straight pool ability, he has been close to being eliminated a couple of times this week.
Manalo has played top notch pool all week long and has shown that he wants this title.
I'd almost flip a coin if I was in Vegas and getting ready to place a bet.

I picked Marlon in both of um, Sam. Ain't no reason to get off him now.
