WOULDNT IT BE GREAT TO SEE KEITH AND DAVE MATLOCK IN A MATCH TODAY!!

ID PAY TO SEE THAT!

KEN

AND HELL YES, I AM YELLING!

LOL! Keith won't be there, but Dave Matlock will be there for sure.

There's plenty of horses in this race, good thoroughbred American horses, plus the three Filipino champions who will be giving them all a run for their money. :p

Maybe it is me just being confident in our players...

I don't see the Philippines' being a threat in this crowd. There is no where for them to hide on these tables; I see a lot more kicked shots finding a pocket sooner than later. But we will see. This is one hell of a ticket baby!! I wish I was there.

Does anyone know if PROPOOLVIDEO.COM will be there to stream some of this?
 
Everybody's scared of who???

ron is right. vilmont won the olathe event 3 weeks ago. jesse is looking like he did 3 years ago. which means everybody should be scared

My boy ain't scared of him! No way, Jose!!!
I'll tell Dennis to go get him for whatever amount he wants!! You want some of that action?

and baraks has never lost a ring game tourney as he won both of the mobile al. ring game events.

i have said it before but the quad cities has per capita the best talent in the country.

2 pro tour rookie of the years + jesse and vilmont and dont forget jesse's brother. he is a champ too

Dude,
Look for a heavyset Samoan looking guy named Kenny, the Bull. He backs up my boy Dennis and you guys can get played. What did you say again, "Everybody should be scared of who?" we'll see about that.

In your opinion, is Dennis the best there? We will have to wait and see on that one.
 
just checked the Action site and nothing new as of yet... I would have bet that they would be some going on by now.

The 10B calcutta does not start until Friday night (8pm) and then play begins...but I'm with you...I would have thought some action reports would have come along by now.

I agree with Ronnie (MrSchon9). There's three strong Quad City boys in there...one of them has to take down some big $$$. I haven't heard much out of Jamie lately, but he is great in the ring game format...and Chad & Jess are playing super solid right now. Wish I could be there.

I would take Orcullo this time around if I was betting the cash but since I am pulling for a good guy and betting a whole lot of air, I will pull for Shane VanBoening.

For the cash, I think Orcullo is tough as nails and he hasn't gotten there as much as he has in the past and I think his talons will be sharp and strong.

I believe that every one of the top players has their turn at the main feeding trough and it just depends on who is the hungriest as to who will come out on top. This is a gourmet meal for some good shooting pool player.


God, I wish I was there. I finally found a round trip ticket to Kansas City MISSOURI for a little less than $300 which makes it almost acceptable but then you have to figure out how to get all the way over to Olathe and the pool hall from the Missouri airport. Not knowing how or how long it takes or how much it costs to get from KCM to Olathe is an aggravation and a consideration. Southwest flys into KC, MO but not KC, KS. Since I wouldn't be playing, and only staying for the weekend, I could probably stay awake for a day or two while looking like a bobblehead. :D

I'm certain that many of Buddy's fans from Central Florida will be pulling for him, including me. The problem is that Buddy's once powerful break has deserted him in 9 ball and 10 ball. It seems that he also has a stamina problem lately. While I've bought Buddy a few times in the calcuttas, I'm leaning towards Corey Deuel and Dennis Orcullo. Of course the bartables may make a big difference here and Buddy is still a great run out artist....

(of course Buddy is ALWAYS a threat in one-pocket )

Oh, geezum, I forgot about Buddy. OK, Shane, take a back seat, I'm pulling for Buddy. Go BUDDY!

It is about 30 miles from the airport to Shooter's, you can take the super shuttle from door to door for about 20 each way.
