Jay must be pulling the rest of his hair out at the 2 min break every single rack.
Sharks International 9 Ball Open (24-29 July), Philippines, Prize Fund $100K
- Thread starter spartan
- Start date
He won 10 of the 15.
jay definitely upped the production with his commentary
from what i have seen of big boys vs nonames, nothing has been suspicious, the lesser known players have mostly shown impressive ability and mental fortitude.
oi leading lil ko 5-3 now on the stream. oi is playing speed pool atm

lil ko came back and blitzed oi. looking more and more probable with a ko vs villafuerte final, especially with these longer races
Very nice set up with seven tables in one large room and one TV table in a separate room. Yes to AC. No comparison to the conditions in the outdoor venues you see money matches played on. I like the Rasson tables with the gray cloth. They play good! Roll true, bank good with tight pockets. A good playing field for this event imo.
They have a full resturant downstairs and a bar that serves food upstairs. Private viewing rooms to watch matches from one level above. All and all a first class venue. One drawback is very little spectator seating. You may have to stand along the wall to watch.
They use the long breaks for people to make bets online between games. Its legal here. The online gambling is the main sponsor for this event. Without it there would be no $100,000 purse. I get it.
If there was more separation (use of lighting) of the table/underneath & it's surrounding area, like Snooker.... the production would be even better.
The current lighting, seems to wash out the players/table into one.

villafuerte going strong despite break misfortunes, 11-7 is almost impossible to catch up in an alternate break format against a guy like oliver
Villafuerte has beaten, Chua and Aranas in money games playing even. So unknown Filipinos are also dangerous.
Never heard of Villafuerte before. But a quick youtube search shows that he played an international tournament in Liuzhou (China) back in 2017...
There is also a more recent video of Chezka apparently beating Villafuerte in a local 10-ball tournament (not sure the score)...

Koy Koy plays even with the world!
The supposedly "unknown" Pinoys really showed their teeth in this tournament. The depth of pool talent in the Philippines on full display this week.
Do you guys think Patric looks a bit like Carlo Biado?
For sure, and Oliver reminds me of Roberto, and Michael reminds me of Lee Van.
Sitting all that time between racks must be frustrating..Watching it is worse than frustrating. Couldnt do it
