I don't know for sure who is better at money games, and to be honest I find it funny too, but Efren has openly said that though he can beat dennis in tourney matches consistently he won't play him high money games because dennis is the 'undisputed money game king' of the phillipenes.smashmouth said:long race, big stakes, even money
NOBODY touches Efren, ANY game
If Yang wants it, he needs to hang around Manilla a little longer with about 25k, Efren backs down from nobody
people forget, when fillipinos speak about Dennis being the best at cash and Ronnie being the best at rotation and such and such a player being the best at whatever.....
it's all really a discussion about second place
it's a given over there, a given, that Efren is King at cash and tournaments, all games

like when the Colts beat the Bears, no doubt there who the better team was, or when Tyson was smashing guys in the ring during his prime
obviously in pool, years of big wins over the best is the standard by which the best are measured but I say again, from time to time, on some rare occassions you just need one long, fair match
I don't see why everyone is finding this Yang win so tough to swallow

Bayawak said:Hey Joe, like what cheemagun asked you, who would you back up against those Filipino players?
Put up or shut up!!!
Bayawak aka tirador....

Bayawak said:Joe,
It doesn't have to be big money. It can be done in fun, like you will not post a thread for a week if you lose, or something silly like that.
Archer had tried that and he did very well indeed against Django. He even broke and ran the whole first set against Django. Well, Django came up to him and asked him to double the bet, Archer declined, and Django proceeded to beat him and win the money.
So you see, my friend, you can put up anybody against these guys, and we won't even break a sweat!!!
You got my drift???
smashmouth said:and when you hear about Efren losing now and again, it's always giving weight
the world's best all demand weight from him, it's ridiculous
nobody wants him even
Hail Mary Shot said:Because people here are not that easy to jump in the bandwagon. When someone beats Yang one time, can we say that that person who defeated him is already considered the best?[/QUOTE
If someone proved that they deserve to challenge him by beating just about every other top player for $, then I wouldn't have a problem with that. If it is a long race under equal conditions. Of course, there may be some debate, but I don't think it would be out of line for someone to say that this person is the best, if they defeated Yang and everyone else in long races. I am not saying Yang is the best, but as far as $, he has to be at the top right now. Nobody seems to be eager to challenge him playing 9-ball.
