Feijen in for 9th Mosconi outing
NIELS FEIJEN is today named as the third member of Team Europe and will make his ninth appearance in the PartyPoker.net Mosconi Cup when the 20th anniversary event takes place at the Mirage Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas from 2nd to 5th December.
Dutchman Feijen, who sports a highly impressive 59% win record over the years, made his debut in the Mosconi Cup in the crushing 1-12 defeat of 2001 but has since gone on to be an integral part of the winning sides of 2007, 08, 11 and 12, including MVP honours in 2011.
The Dutchman, who came so close to winning the World Cup of Pool last week, will move to fourth on the all-time European Mosconi Cup appearances list, and joint fifth with Rodney Morris on the overall roll call.
This is the most prestigious event of the year to play in and since this year is a very special edition, I'm honoured to make the team, said Feijen.

Team Philippines - Lee Van Corteza & Dennis Orcollo, with Barry Hearn
Philippines edge the Dutch in World Cup thriller
TEAM PHILIPPINES made up of Lee Vann Corteza and Dennis Orcollo became 888.com World Cup of Pool champions as they beat Holland in a thrilling conclusion after an action-packed final that illustrated the sheer excitement of top level pool.
The match ebbed and flowed and reached a climactic final stage that saw both teams buckle before the Filipinos redeemed themselves sinking the 8 and 9 for the title and $60,000 top prize. It was the third win for the Philippines in the eight year history of the event, following wins for Efren Reyes and Francisco Bustamante in 2006 and 2009.
This year they enjoyed wins over Croatia, Singapore, Hungary and Chinese Taipei en route to the final but the best was to come in the championship match.
Orcollo was delighted in victory, The fans here were why we won. There was a lot of pressure and things became very difficult but the Filipino community in London who supported us throughout really helped us through.
I reached the final of the World Cup in Manila in 2010 but we came up short so it is fantastic to win here in London. I would love it for me and Lee Vann to defend the World Cup in the Philippines next year as it would be a dream come true to win it again in our home country, he added.
Corteza continued, You have to thank those Philippines supporters who helped us through. Representing my country is such a big honour for me and Im very thankful and proud to have won the World Cup of Pool for the Philippines.

Team Holland - Nick van den Berg & Niels Feijen
Its Holland v Philippines for World Cup glory
Semi Finals
Holland 9-4 Finland
Philippines 9-7 Chinese Taipei
THE FINAL of the 2013 888.com World Cup of Pool will be between Holland and the Philippines after both enjoyed semi-final victories at the York Hall in front of an enthralled crowd. The Philippines came through a real thriller over Chinese Taipei in a match that saw both teams enjoy extended periods of dominance while Holland endured a sticky first half before running away with it against the Finns.
In the second match, both Philippines and Chinese Taiwan made mistakes in the opening racks before Corteza made an excellent combo on the 9 ball to make it 2-1 and then Ko made a bad miss in the next and they ran out in the next to make it 3-1.
An illegal break in the next got the Taiwanese back to the table and negotiated a tricky layout to reduce arrears at 2-3 but the Filipinos won the next to get the Filipino flags in the crowd fluttering.

Team Philippines - Lee Van Corteza & Dennis Orcollo
Final four set for Sunday show down
Quarter Finals
Philippines 9-1 Hungary
Chinese Taipei 9-3 England A
TEAM PHILIPPINES made up of Dennis Orcollo and Lee Vann Corteza ended the 888.com World Cup of Pool journey of Hungary as they hammered them 9-1 to advance to Sundays semi-finals where they will face Chinese Taipei who beat England.
With victories over Croatia, Singapore and now Hungary, there were probably tougher routes to the final day of the event but Orcollo and Corteza barely put a foot wrong as they broke well, potted well and on the rare occasions that their opponents got to the table, it was to extricate themselves from a snooker.
The Hungarians, who qualified for the main event in a qualifying tournament in August, had put out China in the first round and then Russia in round two, will take a lot from their participation in the event and come back stronger next year.
We were a bit lucky off the break, said Corteza, modestly underplaying their prowess with a break stick.
We always had a ball on and we tried to make the most of it. We didnt really give them that many chances so were really pleased to be through to the finals.
Last year (in Manila) we lost in the first round but this year, being in London, theres not so much pressure so were trying to relax and play our best. Its either England or Taiwan tomorrow but both teams are very good so well have to come with our best, he added.
On todays form, the Philippines will be favourites to take their third 888.com World Cup of Pool title.

Team Holland - Niels Feijen & Nick van den Berg
Dutch and Finns through to last four
Quarter Finals
Finland 9-3 England B
Holland 9-8 Japan
HOLLAND AND FINLAND both made their way through to Sundays semi-finals of the 2013 888.com World Cup of Pool with wins over England B and Japan respectively and they will now face each other in the first semi-final on Sunday afternoon.
The Dutch had to grind it out against Japan in a hill-hill thriller with both teams struggling at times, while the Finnish pair of Mika Immonen and Petri Makkonen looked in good shape against England B as their title defence continues.
In the second match of the session, Japan and Holland both teams shared the opening racks as they tried not to give anything away with so much at stake. The Dutch pair of Nick Van den Berg and Niels Feijen could not get away from their high-spirited opponents - Lo Li-wen and Naoyuki Oi and after six racks it was all square at 3-3.

Team England A - Darren Appleton & Karl Boyes
Down to the last eight in London
Round 2
Japan 7-6 USA
Holland 7-5 India
England A 7-5 Italy
WITH TWO days play left at the 888.com World Cup of Pool, the tournament is down to the last eight teams as Japan, Holland and England A all recorded second round wins at the York Hall in London.
With England B already through to the weekends quarter finals, the A team followed them in as they came from behind to beat the plucky Italian pairing of Bruno Muratore and Fabio Petroni.
The Italians enjoyed some good fortune and before long they were 4-1 to the good as the
English team of Karl Boyes and Darren Appleton sank deeper into their chairs. England took the next, but the Italians though were in stroke and they took the next to move to 5-2 and put the English under extreme pressure.
A blistering break from Muratore left them with no reward as the 1 ball was covered by the 2 and they elected to push out. England put them back in and Petroni missed with a snatched attempt at the pot on the 1 ball.
Appleton and Boyes dished up and when Boyes split the pack and left a shot on the 1 ball in the next it was enough for them to run the table and get within one of the Italians at 4-5. After some exchanges in the next, Petroni jumped the cue ball off the table gifting ball in hand to the English who accepted gratefully.
It was the turning point in the game as England broke and ran the next to reach the hill at 6-5. Boyes played a super-tight safety in what was the final rack and although the Italians escaped well, Appleton was able to pocket the 1 ball and they were on their way to victory.
Sometimes in pool it just doesnt go your way at the start of the match. They had a couple of nice rolls but that is pool and you have to be patient and try and fight back, said Boyes.
It was unbelievable to win five racks the way the match went. In the first round it went our way but this was reversed and you have to sit and be patient. We have won World Championships, US Open, Mosconi Cups, so we know how to win from behind.
Appleton added, I dont think anyone else in this tournament could have won that from 5-2 down. They were getting all the luck in the world but I said to Karl we havent had an opportunity.
The way we played from 5-2 was unbelievable. We made some great finishes and played some great shots. It has been a great nights pool for everybody. They didnt do anything wrong from 5-2 but the roll of the ball turned and we had some opportunities.
There was a the devils playground of a lot of pressure and this is why I want to play with Karl because when pressure is on I know he will make the shot.

Big guns make their move
Round 2
Hungary 7-4 Russia
Philippines 7-3 Singapore
Chinese Taipei 7-1 Greece
UNFANCIED QUALIFIERS Hungary continued where they left off against China on Wednesday as they once again made light work of more exalted opposition as they put paid to Russian hopes at the 888.com World Cup of Pool by a 7-4 score line.
There were also wins at the York Hall for Chinese Taipei and Philippines as the big guns made their move into the quarter-finals.
Balazs Mikos and Gabor Solymosi looked to be enjoying every minute of it and played in the sort of relaxed manner that can count for a lot in a high pressure event like the World Cup.

Team England A - Karl Boyes & Darren Appleton
Double white-wash for Teams England!
Round 1
England A 7-0 Indonesia
Round 2
Finland 7-6 Korea
England B 7-0 Germany
THERE WAS double joy for the two English teams at the 888.com World Cup of Pool as first England A routed Indonesia 7-0 to reach the second round, and then the B team smashed Germany by a similar score line to reach the quarter-finals.
Both teams looked in outstanding shape and with them both being in different halves of the draw the possibilities of an all-England final on Sunday night are not out of the question.
England A, comprised of former World Champions Darren Appleton and Karl Boyes, looked very much the part as they completed the first round matches with a thumping 7-0 win over Indonesia at the York Hall to set up a second round game against Italy.
Looking focused throughout, England never let the Indonesian pairing of Ricky Yang and Irsal Nasution off the hook as they put on the best performance of the tournament to date.
Appleton was certainly pleased with how it went; We are best friends and we have been for a long time, so we feel really comfortable together. We always play really well together. We had the advantage of watching all the other matches so we got to see how the table played and we really enjoyed it.

Team Italy - Fabio Petroni & Bruno Muratore
Chinese Taipei, Greece and Italy win as first round nears end
Chinese Taipei 7-5 Belgium
Greece 7-0 Australia
Italy 7-3 Spain
THERE WAS more first round action in the 888.com World Cup of Pool at the York Hall in London and there were wins for Chinese Taipei, Greece and Italy who all make their way through to the second round.
Italy won the session closer as they got the better of Spain in the Mediterranean clash. The Spanish David Alcaide and Juan Carlos Exposito - didnt enjoy the best of luck as they scratched a few times and were confronted by some tricky layouts.
The Italian pair of Bruno Muratore and Fabio Petroni, who has been representing their country since the early days of the competition, looked in very good shape though and will be quietly confident about the weekend. They will play England A or Indonesia in round two.
