Isn't that what DCC's for. Maybe they should just get rid of the tournaments altogether.

Yeah, since they're only getting like 400+ players per division.

I believe Shane has been offered the same challenge, race to 100, with Dennis, and the offer was declined. I'm not sure Busta could get there, but what a game that would be.

BTW, the offer was a couple weeks ago.

Actually, I think the offer was to play Lee Van for 50K, while he was in Manila. But he had a prior engagement with Earl. I like Shane (a lot) but that is a game that he will have to do a lot of thinking before taking. If it were to come off, it would probably be a Race to 100 played at Bugsy's. The same place where Shane played De Luna.

Shane will never run out of action if he decides to stay in Manila for a few

Shane got when he was still back there in Manila, thnx to Toupee Jay! :D

SVB beat Romy "Salamin" in 9 ball (9-4) for 1000 pesos, and another grand
in 10 ball while giving the wild 8 (9-8). Romy is outside the top 100 there.

SVB won against 19 year old Mike Feliciano in 9-ball (9-7)for 2000 pesos.
They played even.

SVB beat Jeff De Luna for 2 dimes playing 10 ball. The score was 21-13.

SVB over Rodolfo Luat for 2 dimes (15-14).

SVB again over Ramil Gallego for 2 dimes (11-10).

SVB lost to Warren Kiamco for $3,250 playing 10 ball (28-17).

This is all correct. The only game that didn't come off was a 2K match with Gabica, who claimed to be "tired".
 
I think nobody can beat EFREN REYES race to 100 winners break on a 9 ball game ....I want to see SVB vs YANG race to 100 and will see who's the MONEY KING of all time. or lets put SVB vs REyes race to 120 "The colour of money III"
 
Jay,

Don't mean to put you on the spot, but I'm curious. Who would you pick in these match-ups, race to 100, 9-ball, winner breaks?

SVB vs. Efren
SVB vs. Archer
SVB vs. Bustamante
SVB vs. Yang

Who would be a favorite against Shane in a race to 100, 10-ball, winner breaks?

Good Morning Jay,

So are you saying that in your opinion, Lee Van Corteza is the biggest threat to Shane among all the Fillipinos? Aside from Lee Van, who among the Filipinos do you think will give Shane a hard time?

If I had to bet, I would bet on Shane. But playing 9-Ball, any of these matches could go either way. I see Yang as the biggest threat of the four.

Any one of about a dozen players are a threat to beat Shane, evidenced by his loss to Kiamco. Lee Van is the player that the BIG backers in Manila are interested in putting in the box against Shane. He stands up good for the cash.

If Shane is going to play an Asian player in a TAR match, Yang and Lee Van are the two most logical choices. But Francisco, Alex, Dennis, Ronnie and Marlon would be very competitive as well. All of these players figure to give Shane much more trouble than Corey or Earl did. There wouldn't be any 3-2 lines or 15 to 20 games on the wire.

You might see someone offer 6-5 or maybe 5 to 7 games on the wire in Ten Ball, with the latter five. Against the first two players, Shane may still be the underdog!

I was there and really wanted to see this happen. Dennis played so well in the ring game, but, he left his break in Manila. Again, who doesn't play real good oon the bar box.
 
Nobody needs to MAKE SVB look like a superstar... he IS a superstar!

Actually, at the same night Shane had won Luat for 2dimes 15-14, Gallego for 70000pesos (=1600$) 11-10, he also played Jherome Pena 10-ball for 20000pesos (=460$), giving him 1 on the wire, and beating him hill-hill again, 11-10. That match ended about 6.00am.

Jay, I've heard that Lee Van has beaten Dennis couple of times for large amount of pesos in Manila, but would you still consider him being stronger than Dennis, who was the top dog until that Yang incident?
I know the backers can be ruthless, and the loss to Yang maybe hurt Dennis and his rep a bit, but every time Dennis has matched up with Dyango (at least those times I've heard of) Dennis has won, then those match ups with Efren and Lee Van, I've heard Efren had won, and I've heard that Efren don't like to play Dennis as "he cannot beat him".
Maybe someone likes to play someone more than someone else, these chemistry things are natural, but I'm still bit curious if Lee Van can come out stronger than Dennis.

About Yang I'm not sure, as I saw his loss and spoke to the same taiwanese reporter as you, and Yang really seemed to have lost his motivation somewhere. After a long break, he could stand up again and beat Shane, not probably now.

And one more question. When you invited Yang to DCC, and Yang asked from you "if they gamble 9 or 10?", did you sort of read from him that he doesn't want 10? I've sort of understood, that they still play mostly 9 in Taiwan..

Lee Van beat Dennis several times earlier this year. But with these top filipino players, they go back and forth. They all play so good that they are all capable of beating each other on a given day.

Yes, Yang may have lost some of his motivation. But a little money on the line might perk him up. He seems to prefer a big challenge match to trying to win a tournament. He appeared to like the idea of money games at Derby City, as opposed to the tournament proper. I don't think he is opposed to Ten Ball vs. 9-Ball.

I'd say it's 50-50 whether he will come to Derby City. I wouldn't be surprised to see him there. They (the Chinese Taipei players) all responded well to my invitation. It's a long expensive trip to Louisville from Taiwan, but these are young men who play great pool, and love action. So it has to have some allure for them. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
