Week 5

Monday @ 7pm True Champs [#10 - 0-4] vs Magic Pool [#3 - 3-1]
After being only one win away from their first win, Mario & company will need to do a bit more to try and try and get their first against a solid MP squad. TC were led by Jan (n00b_playa) who almost went the distance against Freedom finishing 3-1. Jan will be key if TC want to upset an MP squad that just couldn't close. After Croz missed an 8 ball that would've had MP up 4 games to Ant, they were only up 3 to 1+Ant. While they had no trouble getting rid of that one, the 3 winners for MP had no answer for Ant the rest of the way. Luckily, there is no Ant, just a mini-Ant.

Prediction - 5-2 MP

Monday @ 8pm Xtreme 8Ball [#4 - 2-2] vs Extreme Pool Competitors [#7 - 1-3]
James & company were able to draw their record back to .500 in a big way with a big 5-1 win over MIB this past week, and this week will need to take care of a strong EPC squad, should they show with 5. Jack had troubles getting a team together last week vs BnR as he was only able to come with 3, but should be able to find 5 for this match as it is very well a make or break match for EPC's season. X8B with the win would be able to put a 2 game cushion on the last playoff spot, and with 4 weeks to go after this it would be big, but a win for EPC, and the next 4 weeks will be incredibly fun.

Prediction - 5-3 X8B

Tuesday @ 7pm Freedom [#8 - 1-3] vs Latino Pool Legends [#2 - 4-0]
After having to go the distance with TC, Petey & company will need a completely different plan if they look to take down LPL this week. With Tim having to carry against TC due to Freedom's big names struggling to win, Freedom will need to turn it around if they look to make a push for the playoffs. LPL were lucky to escape last week but Ant was able to carry through 4 games (including his first) as they squeaked past MP. Looking at the stats LPL shouldn't have a problem with Freedom but if they underestimate, Ant may have to do the same to keep Freedom under control should their stars perk up..

Prediction - 5-3 LPL

Wednesday @ 6pm Money in the Bank [#6 - 2-2] vs Pool Fiction [#5 - 2-2]
If you have money in the bank, buy a new machine guys. Beyond Mike, no one on the MIB is sticking out like they should, including their all-star in Si. Why MIB can only win one game vs X8B isn't a knock on X8B, but a major knock on Pommy. Are all these players that washed up? Or can they just not win that one game unless it becomes a bo10 deal like cam comps? Either way, this match is big for both sides as the loser will have one hell of a hill to climb. For PFN, they were able to get past a relatively quiet SPS side this past week but will need to be ready to bring the noise this week. Players like Miz, Cam & Pita will need to be on their game if they look to get past a stronger MIB squad because going 2-3 may provide some troubles down the road for either team..

Prediction - 5-3 MIB

Wednesday @ 7pm Break n Run [#1 - 4-0] vs Simply Pool Souls [#9 - 1-3]
Coming off a dominant win over EPC, Dina & company get a slower week against the likes of SPS. SPS played one of their best matches in recent time against a strong PFN squad but just didn't have the experience or skill to grab more then the 2 wins they got. Dina has too many skilled players that would get cranky if they were sat, so expect a complete blow out..

Prediction - 5-0 BnR
