Week two

Last weeks results:

8Ball Crushers defeat Break and Run 5-4 - Rocky did little for EC last season, guess his efforts were one way to assure himself a spot when he wants.

Sexy Poolerz defeat Simply Pool Souls 5-1 - Looks like Joe has some work to do if he wants to compete for the top spot.

Freedom defeat Straight Shots 5-3 - Another slow start for Straight Shots on the horizon?

Dead Strokes defeat Latin Pool Legends 5-2 - Even if I knew Daru was going to bring 3, I still would have predicted them to win..

This weeks matches:

Monday @ 7pm - Sexy Poolerz [1-0] @ 8ball Crushers [1-0]
Sexy Poolerz were able to walk all over SPS as expected, but this week they face a dark horse who have been over achieving as of late, or have they? 8bc on paper don't look talented, but recent results across interleagues show 8bc are a top 3 team. How? Who knows, they have a lot of talented players who have risen to the occasion when necessary, with no one player being depended on week in and week out, which is key. Sexy Poolerz have great players, and then they have a number of good players like 8bc. For 8bc to succeed this week, they'll need to target the likes of Craig and Mike and hope they have numbers heading into the 6th game otherwise it could be lights out for them. Sexy Poolerz is a smart pick, but for some reason, those damn 8ball crushers...

Prediction - 5-4 8Ball Crushers

Tuesday @ 7pm - Break and Run [0-1] @ Simply Pool Souls [0-1]
Both sides coming in off tough losses, one a blow out the other a close game 9 match-up so something has to give. Break and Run made quick work of them in WSOP a few weeks ago, and in carry format you imagine the same result should follow, but this all does depend on how many top players Dina can get to the table. Their player consistency is poor, but based on their line-up from last weeks loss to 8bc, they should be able to handle SPS with ease unless Joe or Jason get on a real tear. SPS has a lot of undervalued talent, so if Break and Run take this too lightly, SPS could have numbers and would leave a BNR player with the task of carrying.

Prediction - 5-2 Break and Run

Tuesday @ 7pm - Straight Shots [0-1] vs Latin Pool Legends [0-1]
This match can straight up go either way, Straight Shots are talented but why do they always suck at the start of interleagues? Players like Jon, Pita and nhan are more then capable of winning matches on their own, just like LPL and their miniscule roster. Not sure what's going on with LPL and their PRO plans, but if SS shows with a full roster, I cannot imagine LPL winning without a full roster.

Prediction - 5-3 Straight Shots

Wednesday @ 7pm - Dead Strokes [1-0] @ Freedom [1-0]
Dead Strokes got a great win on paper, even though it would have been such a let down if they hadn't pulled it off. Dead Strokes have an average roster, but have always given Freedom trouble and with Freedom's strange showing last week, anything is possible. Last week Freedom were carried by a str0ker and Andy, while players like Adam and Matt lost, and whoever 0rgasm is. Andy, Adam and Matt alone could, rather should carry against DS if they show again, so unless Dead Strokes are able to come out firing and throw Freedom back on their heels, I can't imagine an upset here.

Prediction - 5-3 Freedom

Thursday - Happy Turkey Day!
