Wow billy is getting a ball. I been away too long. That’s some crazy stuff

 

[lll]

my knee jerk reaction would be to say tony has the best of it
but you never know which tony shows up
sometimes you dont know which tony is shooting!!!!!

 

[cincy_kid]

I like Tony

 

[El Chapo]

Wow Tony must be playing super sporty. Why don’t I hear much about orcollo these days, is he ok? I think he was assumed to be the best all around player when I stopped following pool A whiles back

Has Tony ans Alex ever played one of these matches? I still think Alex was the best one hole 0layer, at least for a good few years back in the day

Orcullo got his visa pulled for over staying. At least a 5 year ban or something like that. Several lawyers have tried to get him back in to no avail.

it was a visa violation not overstaying but making to much money to qualify for a tourist visa instead of athlete's visa trying to remeber when that was maybe three years ago

Tony has won playing with that game before and it wasn’t close . He’s the favorite in my opinion.

I think a top 10 player giving another top 10 player a ball is tough, but when you are talking about a top 3 player, maybe top 2 in the world... then a ball isn't as unbelievable imo.

I'd almost rather see them play bumps since they are both top in that as well.

Tony is outclassed playing bank pool. Especially if they play full rack bank.

billy is a crazy banker and shot maker but has poor patientce in a longish race tony should out move and out play him in my oppinion

 

[crabbcatjohn]

10k ea might not excite Tony much. Kinda like me playing 20 a game. I shoot a lot of flyers for 20.

That’s amazing. All the social media got him. Leave it to beaurocratic bs To stuff it all up. I wish I could live in the Philippines in fact I could see myself moving there one day So life could be worse.m

 

[Island Drive]

Win...............wind.
Might depend on which way it's blowin' this time.
Or, maybe someone's stringin' wire?

 

[Terry Hanna]

Should be a great match!! Starts next Thursday.
Jeremy Jones and Larry Schwartz will be doing commentary breaking down the shots and strategies.

Dennis was using a tourist visa to enter the US. He always left on time, and paid taxes, but Customs said he did not stay in his home country at least 50% of the time in the past five years, so he was flagged upon reentry in January 2021 and given a five year ban from reentering the US. He has since been declared an alien of extraordinary ability, and when his ban is resolved, he will get the proper documentation to come and go as any other world class athlete.
