Week 1

Welcome to Week one of WPC season 7 and this season is going to be bigger, better and more competitive then ever before. I hope you all read my Pre-Season post. The only team that might not now be in is ICA. If they ain't then on Wednesday DS will play PFN. If that happens then the most successful team in WPC history (probably joint with MP) will be back and in as favourites. PFN will be captained by Kerry and Jamie. There are some great match ups this week however. Lets get into them.

--------MATCH OF THE WEEK--------

Match 1

Simply Pool Souls vs Money In The Bank

Room: Sweet Jane

Day and Time: Monday @ 7pm

Ref: Shelle

Previous Meetings/Confrontations

WSOP: SPS won both the meetings
WPC season 6: SPS 5-1 winners

Emmit did a lot of winding up in WSOP last season

This match is a very interesting match to kick us off in Season 7. SPS have the complete upper hand over MIB in all interleagues. MIB tends to pull off the wins vs the likes on PFN or BNR (BNR last game of WSOP to clinch a playoff spot) but they have not beat SPS ever. Me(jason) has a great record vs MIB. I think MIB have gone with Stevie for captain this season and that would be a wonderful move by rich because he has the skills to try and force a top 4 spot for the playoffs. Emmitt is a average player who can always surprise. The important part of this match will be the first 2 games. If SPS storm into a 2-0 lead then its curtains because they hardly throw away a 2 game lead. MIB have not really picked up any new players in my view. SPS have picked up Noob ology and Rick to name two and the youngster oh.alix who monte the SPS capt is expecting big things from.

Score and Reason:

5-1 SPS they have too much for MIB

Match 2

Straight Shots vs Latino Pool Legends

Room: All Mixed Up

Day and Time: Tuesday @ 7pm

Ref: Sammy (Jason Admin)

Past Meetings/Confrontations:

These two teams met twice in MLP and each had a 4-3 win

This match is a big week one match as LPL former winners and runners up of WPC take on the team that people think should have won the regular title by now. Straight Shots have an array of talent that should dominate inters but really doesnt. They win things like EXPO and BLT in MLP and the UIC Swiss but they dont have proper titles for some time. IPA and the Emerald Division title is about all they have to to show for there team events of the interleagues. However They did win the regular season in MLP a couple of seasons back. LPL are back after a season out because Ant throw out his toys from the pram. These are the only former winners in WPC at the moment and Tino, Steve and company will be looking for a early quick start here but I doubt it.

Score and Reason:

3-3 I see this being a shut out both teams SHOULD be strong this season.

Match 3

8 Ball Crushers vs Freedom

Day and Time: Tuesday @ 5pm

Room: Forward Somersault

Past Meetings and confrontations:

None

So Freedom yet again are in this season, with Ash planning on playing and petey being confident 8BC must watch out this week as FR are very quick starters. 8BC are back after about a 3 season break but are bigger, better and different this season. Bryan is the new captain and Nigel and Bev have moved over to 8BC from ICA who are prolly out of this season too. If 8BC are gonna win they need to match there strongest players up with the likes of Corey, Ash and Petey. If they can win 2 out of 3 from those players then they have a shot. Eba and Hope have both improved a lot tho and these are big threats for FR this season.

Score and reason:

4-2 FR because they have the better players

Match 4

Deadstrokes vs Pool Fiction

Day and Time: Wednesday @ 7pm

Room: A Face In The Crowd

This match is more than likely going to be against Pool Fiction. DS are really strong in WPC and got to the playoffs last season and look like they face a uphill struggle but PFN will be stronger and welcome back :)

Score:

4-2 PFN

GL all and have fun
