A Record for Drago?

A Record for Drago?Tony “The Tornado” Drago squeaked by excellent all-around player Shannon Daulton with an 8-6 score in one hour, five minutes. Is this his longest match ever? “Maybe so! I don’t know,” he laughed. “Shannon was breaking big, and then luckily for me, his break wasn’t as good as in the beginning, and I started making a few balls on the break. I guess I was a bit lucky to win … but you need that sometimes.”“I played the worst pool of my life,” exclaimed Alex Pagulayan, who handed in his sheet that reported an 8-3 win over Japan’s Kazuo Furuta. Walking by, Ralf Souquet retorted, “Well, as long as you win!” Souquet just scored a smart 8-2 win over David Matlock with a whopping six break and runs.IPT World Open 8-Ball Championship ForumsVisit the IPT World Open 8-Ball Championship Image GalleryTaiwan’s Hui-Kai Hsia has won all three of his matches so far today, having just bested Nick Van den Berg 8-4.
