Team China - Fu Jianbo & Li Hewen.

Second Title in Four Years for Li and Fu

CHINA, represented by Fu Jianbo and Li Hewen, won their second PartyPoker.net World Cup of Pool crown as they dismantled the Philippines by a 10-5 scoreline and silenced a huge home crowd at the Robinsons Place Mall in Manila.

It was the second time that the deadly Chinese duo have now lifted this prestigious crown – they beat Finland in a hill-hill thriller in Rotterdam in 2007 – and they never let up from the opening rack as the home team felt the pressure and never really got going.

Over the week of the tournament, the sheer quality of their play throughout shone through and in Fu Jianbo they have one of the most exciting players in the world. Li Hewen though is as reliable as any player and to win the World Cup twice in four years cements their world class credentials.

"We are very happy with the victory but we just got the luck we needed from the Philippines team,” said a reflective Fu Jianbo.

"They made a few mistakes and we took advantage of that. The Philippines team literally gave us the match because they made a lot more mistakes than we did. It was very pressured though, because it was a big pro-Filipino crowd.

"It was like the home court advantage so to win here, we’ve got to be very, very happy winning the tournament," he added.

For the Philippines side of Dennis Orcollo and Roberto Gomez, it was an anticlimax after their heroic 9-8 defeat of Taiwan in the semis and maybe they were mentally drained by their efforts.





"Read More..." for the full details.


Team China - Fu Jianbo & Li Hewen.

Either way, China took the opening rack to settle their nerves but the Philippines levelled it when their opponents made a mess of the 8 and 9 balls. Every Filipino pot and Chinese miss was greeted with deafening cheers.

It’s hard to under-estimate the pressure the players were under and it showed in a shocking third rack as the four struggled to pot a ball between them as the crowd started to get agitated.

Every single player missed shots they would normally have made. Gomez's mistake, when he missed the 9-ball into the side pocket, was the most crucial though and Fu Jianbo downed the 9-ball for a 2-1 lead.

The next rack isn’t much better and it went to China to increase their lead and they took the next to go to 4-1 which silenced the huge home crowd.

Orcollo made a huge error in the next when his attempt to snooker the Chinese fell woefully short. Fu Jianbo, normally the most reliable of potters, missed an easy 9 ball but Gomez could only play a less than watertight safety and Li Hewen played a magnificent cut shot to give his side a 5-1 lead.

The Philippines desperately needed a break to stop the runaway train and they got it when Li, scratched pushing out. They tried for the three foul rule but Fu went off three rails for the great escape. Gomez left a poor snooker which Li potted with a kick shot and it was soon 6-1.

It soon became 7-1 as the dynamic Chinese pair ran out from the break. The Philippines finally got a shot at the 1 ball in the ninth as Li hashed up a 1/4 combo. Orcollo though, missed a tough long cut on the 5 ball and China took another rack. China reached the hill as a weak shot from Orcollo left an open table.

Philippines finally won another rack to reduce arrears to 9-2 and they then broke and ran the next two to get the crowd going. It was all too much of a mountain and although they got to five racks, it was the mighty Fu Jianbo who rolled home the final 9 ball of the tournament for Chinese glory.

As well as the title, magnificent trophy and gold medals, the duo also took the US $60,000 top prize.

“It was a great performance from us and playing with Fu gives us so much confidence,” said Li Hewen.

“To win the World Cup again is an incredible experience and fantastic for Chinese pool and we can’t wait to come back next year and try to defend our title,” he added.

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 6 - SESSION 1 - PARTYPOKER.NET WORLD CUP OF POOL 2010




Team Philippines B - Dennis Orcollo & Roberto Gomez.

China Edge Germany as Pinoys KO Taiwan in Thriller

The 2010 PartyPoker.net World Cup of Pool final will be contested by China and Philippines B after a couple of epic semi-finals at the Robinson Place Mall in Manila.

Earlier China (Fu Jianbo and Li Hewen) had beaten Germany in an exciting encounter before Dennis Orcollo and Roberto Gomez blew the roof off the venue with a marvellous 9-8 win over the dangerous Taiwan.

The Taiwanese pair of Chang Jung-lin and Ko Pin-yi looked very relaxed throughout the match as the hyped-up up Filipino pair fought to stay with them. It was always close and at 8 all, Ko broke in the last and downed three balls. The lowest numbered ball, the blue 2 was available but Chang, taking an eternity, missed the tough pot.

The crowd went wild and Orcollo started jumping up and down like a madman out of control. They managed to compose themselves and with the massive crowd willing down every shot, they cleared the table to book a place in the final.

"I have never been that nervous in my life and my whole body was shaking’” said Orcollo, who will now need to calm himself down for this evening’s final.

"I said to Gomez to just hit the back of the ball. He hit the back of the ball and it worked. Now we're in the final. I was so nervous I nearly passed out."


Team China - Fu Jianbo & Li Hewen.

Earlier, China made it through to their second PartyPoker.net World Cup of Pool final as they edged past Germany in a thrilling match in downtown Manila.

After winning the opening rack, the Germans got the worse of the exchanges and the Chinese pair established a 6-1 lead in the race to nine encounter. A dry break from China in the eighth rack gave Germany a chance and they stopped the rot as Souquet downed the 9 ball.

At this stage, the Chinese must have felt fairly confident but within half an hour the Germans were all square and in the ascendancy. Li Hewen missed the 4 ball in the next and Germany took the lead for the first time since the opener.

Souquet and Ortmann had played outstanding stuff to get back in the game and they nearly made a golden break in the next to reach the hill.

The 9 ball hung over the pocket with the 2 ball nearby but Souquet missed a very tough pot on the 1 ball. China did the necessary to get to 7-7 and then ran out the next to reach the hill.

The winning run out nearly broke down but Fu Jianbo, who must be one of the greatest shot-makers in the game, potted an outstanding 8 ball down the rail to seal it.

Germany, while clearly disappointed having fought so hard, were edged out by the better team on the day and can console themselves with $8,000 each.

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.
