| John Morra & Efren Reyes |
Monday, CSI had their second challenge match of the week with an interesting scotch doubles 8 ball format race to 21 . The teams were Corey Deuel and Mike Dechaine (USA) vs Francisco Bustamante and Efren Reyes (PHI). In this match the Americans came away with a 21-14 victory, a bit of an upset in my opinion considering the experience and past success from the Filipino team in 8 ball. Although it should be noted that all four players are proven champions, and Deuel is also known a very strong 8-ball player.
The Grand-Master 8 ball division spent most of the day catching up the losers side bracket. Jason Klatt from Canada played a late night match against Ernesto Dominguez and was able to survive this test against the skilled veteran. He now advances to play Charlie Bryant another strong competitor from Texas. There are 8 players left who will be fighting their way for a shot at Skyler Woodward in the final. Blair Lawson from Winnipeg, Manitoba had the highest Canadian finish in the 1000 player Men's Open 8 Ball division finishing tied for 33rd.
Some other Canadian results from Mondays action
Shannon Keenatch (SK) lost in the winners side final of the "Women's Leisure" singles and will continue play waiting for her opponent in the 3rd place match
-Ryan Solleveld (MB) 5th place Men's Master Singles
-Larry Wilson 13-16th (BC) Men's Advanced Singles
-Blaine Burns 13-16th (Sk) Men's Master Singles
-Bev Ashton (AB) 5th Women's advanced singles.
Today will see the completion of most of the singles events and another great challenge match from CSI. This time featuring Chang Jun Lin (TPE) vs Dennis Orcollo (PHI), I can assure you that this will be an epic match. Even if the scoreline isn't close, it will take phenomenal play to create separation as these two players are right near the top of everybody's list as the best in the world. The match is a race to 21 with the game being 9 ball, this can be purchased on PPV at playcsipool.com
