Matchroom Improvement list

Shane and Tyler announced for the Mosconi today. Looks like Filler will be announced in the next day or two. Should be interesting. Albin Ouschan told Doggin It that Filler was excited to be back in the Mosconi.

Filler himself was watching the Philippines Open intently to see if anyone would pass him in points. When it was clear no one could, he wrote a short FB post about it.
Very nice. Sanity returns to the Mosconi. With Filler, SVB and Fedor there, it is as if Matchroom is reestablishing the Mosconi Cup as the gathering place for the greatest champions. The Filler vs Gorst matchup in singles instantly becomes one of the most anticipated matches of 2025. In Emily we trust.

Mike Dunklin

Never even heard of him and that's not far from here. There's only 5 names on there I recognize from Southern Illinois, a handful towards the top from the quad cities minus Bowman and 2 at the top are more St Louis players. I talked with Dunklin at a tourney once, he's a really nice guy and highly respected by all the top players. He was telling stories and one time him an Hennessee won some $ in Danville, Il then got robbed!!
Yeah Bob was a sick 14.1 player.
I still recognize 25% or so of those names.
Dunklin and Donny Branson tried getting my buddy and I into a money game many years ago.
My bud could easily hang with Mike but neither of us were a match for Donny. Hard pass on that game.
They probably hoped we didn't know who they were.
I spoke with Mike this summer at JOB's in Nashville. He plays in the split brackets down there fairly often.
