Week 1

Season 3 is now up and raring to go; I would like to take a minute to welcome the new leagues that have signed up for what looks to be a very exciting season.
Welcome:

Elite Pool Legendz
Extreme Cues
Greatest Pool Competition
Natural Born Players
Outlaw Heaven
Pool Hall Shooterz
AP – I will update when I know your name lol


There have been a few changes this season, to both rules and schedule, could you all take a few mins to familiarise yourselves with them.


Week 1 Season 3
This week is going to be fairly difficult for me to predict as I have actually only heard of half the leagues, but I will give it my best shot.


PKS Vs AP
EC Vs MP
TH Vs OLH
FA Vs PHS
GPC Vs EPL
PPZ Vs NBP



PKS Vs AP
PKS last year towards the end started to put together a decent side, and were unfortunate in losing to MP in the semis of the playoffs, I feel if they have kept a similar side to what they had last year they should have another decent run, As for AP Im sorry but I don’t even know your name (page needs updating), if you get off to a good start here you will have a shout at the playoffs.

My Prediction
3-2 PKS


EC Vs MP
This is my match of the week, MP were victorious in season 2, having beaten FA in the final of playoffs. Everyone knows what MP are like though, as soon as they start losing they start whining, now that there are a few more decent leagues (no offence) in STL I think MP will struggle, they never cope with pressure. As for EC, looking at what they could have in their locker it could be very interesting they are capable of blowing any of the leagues away, but will they have their strongest team? Well I doubt it. I see this being a nasty encounter and lots of bad mouthing.

My Prediction is based on a strong EC side
4-1EC


TH Vs OLH
I’m not sure what to make of this match, what I mean is I don’t know whether Thunders will show, Thunders were by far the best team last season, but unfortunately their players did not follow the guidelines for setting camtasia up in playoffs, Thunders turned up with 4 players in playoffs and beat FA 3-0, but their tapes failed as they were not saved as avi format. If thunders do show I don’t think they will have as stronger side as they did last season, as for OLH well again I haven’t heard of this league, and I don’t see many players signed up for them.

My prediction if Thunders Show
3-2TH


FA Vs PHS
This is going to be a good match, I have seen a bit of PHS players and Im half expecting them to be very similar to MP in the fact that they will mouth off at any given chance, please forgive me if im wrong. FA have a few handy players if they turn up and if they can all concentrate they have a good shout at making the playoffs. As for this match, well its going to be tight for sure. PHS can talk all the shit they like because FA are well behaved and are unlikely to bite.

My Prediction
3-2FA

GPC Vs EPL
This prediction may be a bit bias of me, but what can I do. EPL are the strongest team in this competition and could pull the A team in at any point. As for GPC I haven’t really heard of your league, I anticipate EPL setting their stool here and turning up with a blow-out in mind.

My Prediction
5-0 EPL


PPZ Vs NBP
PPZ had a dreadful season in the last one, but they started to play a lot better towards the end of it, NBP im afraid I haven’t heard of this league but they could possibly surprise a few teams, catching them off guard. PPZ will be looking to avenge their last place last year.

My Prediction
3-2NBP

There you have it week 1 predictions, GL everyone and have fun.
