Played this Danny guy last year in a mini at the Rio. He plays good but he told me he didn't do well in the open last year. So if he didn't do well last year whats all the fuss about? His exact words were " yea I'm a scrub". He sounded pretty down on himself for not doing well. Maybe he thought like you guys and thought he had it in the bag. I really believe the open division in BCA is one of the toughest tournaments to win. Race to 5 alternate break and the last 48 are running everything. Sometimes it doesn't go so well for favourites. How about just play and have some fun……seems like a decent option lol
