Monday Picks
MadSkillz @ LPL - Dazed says 4-3 LPL. At ANY other point in this season I may have easily disagreed with him and called him an idiot. Not so here. And actually I don't think MadSkillz has gotten too much better than last season. You may recall they were 4th in their Division last season, 6th overall in the AL thanks to a win over...Guess who? LPL. That ain't gonna happen here. I think king_hustler could be at work, at the match, at a baseball game, at a gay bar, it may not matter. Both teams will really be fighting for this win, but I think LPL will not just win 4-3, but that they may force king_hustler out before game 7. But, you can't just fall asleep on MZ like Wild Angels did, cuz man they are really good at taking advantage of big mistakes. It should be a really entertaining battle.
UnitedPool @ 8BallRunners - 5-2 8BR...Hmm...That's a good pick. UnitedPool has caught some breaks this season. 8BallRunners need this win to get into a nice little tie for 4th place. yes UP has Ketan and badking who has started actually winning games again, imagine that. But 8BR is hot right now. LuckyCandi winning the Reg Jump last night, the win over PoolFiction last week, they have finally become a team to reckon with. Unlike the beginning of the season where they were horrible, they're now starting to get that little "we belong in the Playoffs" status, and hey what's the easiest way to get in? Winning your matches of course. 5-2 8BR.
PoolMasters @ AbsoluteFinest - This one I sorta disagree with. Dazed has 5-2 PM, I think it'll be 4-3. May not take 7, but I think PM will only get 4. Yes the last really good team AF played schooled em 5-2, and yes PM did beat that team. But I think a couple PoolMasters will make a few mistakes, they certainly haven't been immune to accidents lately, and if they need 'em, they've got damn_balls, jimvan, and my pick for PM's All-Star, dynamite_que playing for them. I'll take everything PM has over what little AF has. Probably should be 5-2 PM, but I'll go with 4-3.
DreamPool @ WildAngels - I can't say much about this one. Even though DreamPool played like BritPool Saturday against StraightShots, they've got a good team. They certainly have a better team than WildAngels. WA has, well, a legitimate chance of upsetting DreamPool, because when it comes to who's more of a team the Angels win that contest. They also had a strong start against LPL before blowing it. DreamPool has better players though, and with all that praise to Dp, I go 4-3 Angels upset 'em. I'm gonna be dead wrong I almost guarantee it, but it's one of those little feelings.
HotShotz @ LuckyPool - This depends on a lot of things. The biggest factor is how does Tyler run this match if he's still captain? If snake is back as captain, then I definately think HotShotz should be ready. Dazed has AceMarked the man to look out for in HS. The guy has played what 2 MLP games including Tours this season? :P It's definately gonna come down to who captains better here but I think LuckyPool will FINALLY get a 6th win in a season. They're gonna win this match, it's gonna be 4-3 LKP and that may be short-changing 'em a little. Jenn, Snake, l0ser, Tyler, good 4 and I'm of course leaving out people. HS doesn't play a huge bunch of safeties from what I've seen, so I don't think Tyler (goober) will lose his temper during his game. But that certainly is a good bit of advice HS if ya wind up against him.
