I will start the top ten list and anyone can feel free to add to it. This is the last day of voting for the big IPT matchup.

#10

I really really want to see Efren Reyes play as much as possible before he stops playing competitively. Every time I see him play I'm inspired to practice harder and play more tournaments.

#9

The money he will earn when he wins goes to a good cause. He supports many of his family members who are poor.
 
1 Murphy, Austin United States 18.26 %
2 Foldes, Vilmos Hungary 17.05 %
3 Reyes, Efren Philippines 15.03 %


I have no problem with Austin Murphy playing! I've conceded that he will play.

Just vote for Reyes so we can see Austin fulfill what is probably a dream of his. To play Reyes live with a big audience! Infact that can be reason #8

Vote for Reyes so Austin can more exposure! Yeah that's it!
 
I would like to see Efren and Austin win.

Efren because besides Earl, he IS one of my ALL time favorite players (and always will be)

I'd like to see Austin win because he is a kid that plays well and everyone deserves a chance. I think he would learn a lot and it would be a great experience for him to play Efren.

Austin and Landon Shuffett will probably represent the US of A someday in the future. I think it would be great for both of these kids (as long as they stay in school and it's ok with their parents) to get as much experience as possible.

Love your avatar! I will spot either one of those 3 girls the 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and the 8 ball for $100 just for a chance to play them. Adorable! (I have a rule that I never spot the 7.)

Thanks!

You must not like $ very much;) .

I'm the worst player of the 3 of us but we are all capable of holding a cue stick:) .
 
Im happy for Austin. I wish him the best, but honestly, why would a Reyes vs. Murphy match be a good one? I don't particularly like the idea of a Foldes match either, but he is one of the worlds best 8-ball players. If we are going to put someone in strictly to be there then my vote is for Bernie Friend. It will be entertaining even when he gets embarrassed.
 
Well I do like money but I prefer spending quality time with cute asian girls more than $100

Don't put it past me. I'll fly down.

Lucky for you flying would be rather expensive considering all 3 of us live in different states:) .

FYI: Today is the last day to vote. It would be a good one because the only other alternative is going to be Foldes vs Murphy. Don't be like the people who voted for Perot and wasted their vote.

Vote REYES!!!

1 Murphy, Austin United States 18.63 %
2 Foldes, Vilmos Hungary 16.87 %
3 Reyes, Efren Philippines 15.27 %
4 Hofstatter, Gerda Austria 9.02 %
5 Boyes, Karl England 4.27 %
6 Strickland, Earl United States 3.93 %
 
Today is not the last day to vote as someone said earlier in this thread. The voting ends at midnight central time on Friday April 11th.

That being said, I hope people hold off on pumping up Efren for another couple of days, and keep voting for Austin until he gets an insurmountable lead instead. A few days ago they took away about 6% of his votes and it could happen again. Once Austin is absolutely guaranteed to be in it, it should be no problem getting everyone to throw their votes towards Efren on the last day to get him in at #2.

That is strange, they must have extended it. I double checked the closing time over the weekend and I'm sure it said Tuesday, April 8th. Maybe they like all the traffic from people voting.

3 Reyes, Efren Philippines 16.06 %
4 Hofstatter, Gerda Austria 9.06 %

All I have to say to Vilmos Foldes is, "Fugetaboutit." Reyes Is breathing down your neck and the man can't be stopped. Not on the table and not in a popular vote.
 
1 Murphy, Austin United States United States 19.25 %
2 Foldes, Vilmos Hungary Hungary 16.22 %
3 Reyes, Efren Philippines Philippines 16.21 %

Could it BE any closer? Know that your vote for Reyes right now could literally be the vote that gets him past Foldes!
 
Just voted for Efren and here's the current standings as of 3:28 am Pacific:

1 Murphy, Austin United States United States 19.02 %
2 Reyes, Efren Philippines Philippines 17.31 %
3 Foldes, Vilmos Hungary Hungary 17.22 %

Luxury,
You don't have to fly all over the country. All three of us are going to be in Vegas during the BCAPL National:)
