Team Philippines B - Dennis Orcollo & Roberto Gomez. Orcollo and Gomez Keep Home Dreams Alive
TWO OF the heavyweights of world pool will contest the second semi-final of the PartyPoker.net World Cup of Pool as Taiwan and the Philippines both recorded last eight wins at Robinsons Place Mall, Manila on Saturday evening.
Taiwan, represented by Chang Jung-lin and Ko Pin-yi, held off brave Poland for a deserved victory while Dennis Orcollo and Roberto Gomez set the 2,000 plus crowd on fire with a 9-1 win over Mika Immonen and Markus Juva of Finland.
With assembled experts divided on who would win, it was the home nation’s remaining representatives who got off to a blistering start. Juva’s foul on a jump shot in the opener set the tone as the Philippines completed the run out with cue ball in hand.
Playing superbly, Gomez and Orcollo broke and ran the next two and made it 4-0 when Immonen’s attempt on a 2/4 combo failed. They broke and ran out the next three, making the game look easy.
Finland, going cold sitting in their chairs, had the occasional visit but not to anything of any value to them. They had a chance to take the eighth game but Immonen missed a horrible 8 ball.
The Finns finally got a rack to make the score 8-1 but another miss from Mika, sealed the deal for a 9-1 Philippines win, much to the delight of the crowd at the mall and many more watching around the country on Solar Sports.
"We played a great game and it was our best performance but maybe we can play better tomorrow,” said Gomez after the match.
"We were trying to look for the break and I think we found it as we made it every time. The break is something we only practise two or three hours before the game here so we're ready for anything. It's really important to practise on the same table and on the same cloth.
"We have Taiwan tomorrow but for us we do not see who the opponent is. If we play the same as this then we can beat anybody and everybody but Taiwan are a really tough team."
Orcollo added, "We made our break good and there was always a shot on so that's why the confidence was there. With the audience there's a lot of confidence there as they are always very supportive of the Philippines and that's why we played really nice tonight."
"Read More..." for the full details.
Team Taiwan - Ko Pin-Yi & Chang Jung-Lin. Taiwan Looming in Sunday Semi Showdown
Earlier in the evening, Taiwan looked all business as they disposed of the plucky Polish pair of Radoslaw Babica and Mariusz Skoneczny by 9-5. Trailing 3-0 and then 5-2, the Poles got back to 5-4 at one point but the quality of the Taiwanese play was too much in the end.
They now face the Philippines in what promises to be a humdinger of a match on Sunday afternoon.
With 32 teams representing 31 countries – home nation Philippines has two sides in the competition – the World Cup of Pool sees the gathering of some of the most decorated stars of the pool firmament. The event is taking place at Robinsons Place, in Ermita, Manila.
With a total purse of $250,000, the winning pair split $60,000 between them while first round losers are guaranteed $1,500 each. All the action will be carried live on Solar Sports in The Philippines and other broadcasters across the region.
DAY 5 - SESSION 1 - PARTYPOKER.NET WORLD CUP OF POOL 2010
Team Germany - Ralf Souquet & Oliver Ortmann. Germany Dump France in Dogfight - Magnificent Chinese on Track for Title No.2
GERMANY are still on course for their second consecutive PartyPoker.net World Cup of Pool final as they laboured to a 9-7 win over the French team of Francois Cottance and Stephan Cohen at Robinsons Place Mall in Manila.
Ralf Souquet and Oliver Ortmann would have started as overwhelming favourites against France following highly impressive wins over Hong Kong and Russia but pool isn’t always like that as they struggled throughout as the dogged Frenchmen stayed with them.
In the end though they had a little bit too much going for them and they can now look forward to a semi-final match up against China tomorrow (Sunday). The Chinese looked superb in dismantling Indonesia and the Germans will have to pick up the pace if they are to succeed.
"It was a tough one. We win as a team and lose as a team. It's doubles and I can't win by myself and Oliver can't win by himself - It's a race to nine winner break but it felt like alternate break,” said Souquet.
"France were not the favourites against England but still won. I didn't watch the match, just the last couple of racks but I heard from a lot of spectators that France v England was a really bad one but they still beat England who had two of the reigning World Team champions.
"It's not as easy as it seems for outside spectators, once you're in the arena and feel the heat. The French team might be a little under-estimated but Stephan Cohen won a 14.1 world title and Francois Cottance is very well known on the Euro Tour and a regular there."
Ortmann added, “That was my worst match. I didn't play that good and made a couple of mistakes. I'm glad I had a strong partner like Ralf and that's why we won.
"Part of being a team is getting confidence from the other player and that's what helped this time. Ralf helped me a lot and that's why we won. We knew France would play better than yesterday - they couldn't play worse.
"We were the favourites but we know both players from the Euro Tour. Everyone expected us to win and it's tough to be the favourites."
Germany were always in the ascendancy and at 7-4 to the good, it looked to be a formality. However, Cohen and Cottance dug in, chipping away and at 7-8 down and breaking they looked to have a chance.
They didn’t take it though and when Cohen missed the pink 4 into the centre pocket, it was game, set and match Germany.
Team China - Fu Jianbo & Li Hewen. Earlier, the Chinese duo of Fu Jianbo and Li Hewen looked the business in dismantling Ricky Yang and Mohammad Zulfikri of Indonesia and the 2007 champions will be hard to beat.
Both players have strong all round games plus plenty of bottle and both are capable of pulling out stunning shots when needed. Their biggest strength though is their ability to convert racks from the smallest of opportunities and the telepathic nature of their play.
Zulfikri and Yang are both quality players but they were on the rack from the off as the Chinese put them under severe pressure.
China went into a 3-0 lead and the writing was on the wall but Indonesia fought hard and won the next three to level the match. That was to be their last significant contribution to the contest as China came with all sorts of shots to win the next six games and seal victory.
“That was a great win for us and we are feeling good about our game,” said Fu.
With 32 teams representing 31 countries – home nation Philippines has two sides in the competition – the World Cup of Pool sees the gathering of some of the most decorated stars of the pool firmament. The event is taking place at Robinsons Place, in Ermita, Manila.
With a total purse of $250,000, the winning pair split $60,000 between them while first round losers are guaranteed $1,500 each. All the action will be carried live on Solar Sports in The Philippines and other broadcasters across the region.
