Must See Matches

While I was taking a look at this 8brcam season I noticed there is a couple of matches that shouldn't be missed if given the opportunity to watch. I'm going to list off a couple with a description.

Match 1

xchriskarenx vs p00l_charlie

This is always a great match up to watch as both of these players have very aggressive styles and they make tables work for them no matter the layout. One player is a 2 time 8brcam champion (back to back might I add). The other is a 2 time 8brcam finalist possibly 2 shots away from being a 2 time 8brcam champion. I believe PC has the advantage on CK in their 8brcam matchups but its never been easy. CK is coming off a successful cam comp run in ucc and looks to be the favorite here even if he has a loss already (hopefully that was his bad set). I haven't seen too much of PC lately so I'm just going to act like he is still a good shooter. PC went from being one of the most overrated 8brcam players when he won his first to solidifying himself as a dominant player by winning a 2nd and then a ucc. As of right now I think CK is the better player and PC will have a tough time winning this unless he plays like the 8brcam champ of early 08 (and ck gets another yahoo).

CK 6 PC 4


Match 2

mvp_realm vs powerized

Jordy and Shawn, At first thought someone would think Jordy would be the easy pick due to his successful runs in all his competitions, but after watching Shawn play and remembering how I played Jordy I really think that this matchup favors Shawn's style. I'm not going to go into much detail about this one.

Shawn 7 Jordy 3

Match 3

xxl_machine_lxx vs ta.lent

Si is a machine.
Si 7 Matt 3

but no really Matt has been playing really good pool. Si already took a loss this season to Anil. IF you go by the current trend you shouldn't be surprised if Matt wins this match but when you win 2 8brcams and have a loss in a final all in 4 seasons then you don't need to be doubted.
Si 7 Matt 3

More to come...
