Live NOW! Austin Murphy vs. Efren Reyes

Did you even look at his ipt profile compared to others? My point is everyone else on that list would've been playing better than he is right now.

He needs a lot of work IMO in terms of shot selection and just shot making altogether.

He is only 14. How much do you think he should have accumulated by now?

I am sure that a more experienced player would be playing better. However Austin won the viewer's choice - and kudos to the IPT for doing what the viewers wanted to see.

I guess the only thing I can say is that a solution is for players to get out there and market pool so that more people outside of the hard core fans will participate in events like this. They say a rising tide lifts all boats.

So here is a chance for players to aggressively market pool in a grassroots fashion and try to get interest started virally.

4:1 Efren - Austin looks lost. He is clearly nervous. Efren started shakily and has given up opportunities but has also pulled off some Efren Magic shots in his runouts.

Efren is so good he makes you afraid to approach the table. John Schmidt said playing straight pool in front of Sigel is like having sex in front of a porn star. How do you think it feels to be PLAYING Efren in Austin's position.

ah? having sex with the king of porn?:D
 
That's got to be the hot babe you were speaking of. She is interviewing both players.

Her "suit" reminds me of an episode of Star Trek... HOT
 
I will be more than happy to sponsor Austin in an winner take all two man tournament against anyone who has posted in this thread to this point. I will put up $1000 for Austin's entry fee to this event. It shall be played exactly tot he same rules he is playing in now. Would anyone who has posted previously like to accept this challenge?

Am I too late? :D
 
I want to see a good match too :-) I knew the odds were stacked against Austin and it's tough to watch. But this is a truly GOOD person and someone with a bright future. He will have many more great matches and tournaments in front of him.

:-( Bummed - Wish Austin would/could show more of his real speed.
