[@Crazeyfor67]

I'm huge Filler fan, but I'm very happy that Lee Van won this match. It's great for pool that a veteran of the game rose to the occasion and played damn near perfect pool. Joshua made some mistakes, but I don't think anyone could have beaten Lee Van this day. Congratulations LVC! You deserved this!

[@perun4649]

i just found out he is 44 yo, he loos very young

[@junkyard1979]

Jeremy Jones is taking it to a whole new level of commentary.

[@brianpurdy6072]

Gotta say, always liked Lee Van's game and was pulling for him but did not think he could dominate the whiz-kid like that. Wonderful pool, deep pleasure to watch it.

[@AccuStats]

Yes, superb!

[@auntiekriss]

His character was calm and genuine humble too, and that's one thing important for a world class champion players👍🏻. Btw this was a nice HQ video, thank you for sharing🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@scottbacci8933]

One of the most impressive 9 ball performances I’ve watched!

[@elie3537]

Lee Van corteza is underrated . He is one player that has a special talent !!!!

[@johnhernandez4734]

FUCKING SPOT ON! UNDERRATED! Completely agree!

[@jermainerodgers]

He needs to win big tournaments like us open. 9 ball

[@kenabella9131]

100% Agree with you. In Manila, he is a star but yet very humble. Believe it or not, there are lots of up and comers back home that has the same attitude and style like LVC. America will get to see them soon hopefully. LVC has been great for the game. Hands down to Josh.

[@riche.9990]

This guy Lee Vann Corteza should be in the pool hall of fame someday. He plays pool great but underrated.

[@rickewell5967]

our names are similar. I had Lee Van sign the ball cloth afterwards. I followed him the entire event. Such a solid and underrated dude like you said.

[@jojibaranggan3522]

Everything is perfect. Video, Audio, Commentators. The Players are beyond perfect.

[@arpeemac]

here in Manila, I play in the pool hall where LVC practices. He would either play 15-ball rotation or practice long shots. he does this alone for many hours.

I'm not even watching live but my heart stops during and every shots that Lee Van Corteza made, such an enjoyable and learning viewing this pool game. Also the commentators were awesome, thank you

[@raymst4925]

Lee Van is one of the most underrated players in the sport. He can be easily be top 5 9&10 ball player in the world, the problem is his hunger and desire. But any day he can beat Filler, SVB, Shaw, Orcullo. Plus, he is known to throw some money ball games back home.

[@Harry-ks7gx]

[@newtype5005]

where are the people who said that Corteza only got lucky against Joshua in the last video?

[@squeegied3rdeye713]

I came up gambling pool in Houston in the early/mid 90s when I was in my late teens early 20s and saw JJ play up close and personal quite a bit. During this match he mentioned his dad not being a big fan of him playing pool seriously then coming around once he saw he was a serious player I thought that was pretty interesting I'd like to hear more about his early years coming up

[@kabayanhustler]

Awesome performance from Lee Van Corteza. Truly the Slayer! Thank for the upload Sir Pat!

[@AccuStats]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@dannyberkabile265]

Corteza shoots like Grady Matthews. He doesn't stroke it like Efren, Joshua or Strickland does, but sort of pops or quickly punches or pushes his cue when he shoots. I've been taught stroking your cue is the better way to shoot pool, but Grady shoots exceptionally well and so do others who play this way. For me, I do both depending on the shot and how well I'm shooting. I've found on some shots just a quick movement of my wrist to cue the shot is very accurate.

[@chrispafrieddreams9118]

The shorter the backswing, the less margin there is fo error..

[@dadejavusc]

Wow Lee Vann is from my city. I cant believed he dominated Filler in this match. Total @$$ whipping. If he play like that all the time he will be hard to beat. Thanks for the video. Greenville, SC!

[@bruceperez2283]

Lee Vann played closed to perfect .. he was on fire on this match, unbeatable form.

[@MrJdsenior]

You get these two guys commentating and you can learn quite a bit. I like that they see shots differently sometimes and discuss it, and I like when NEITHER of them gets it right like that high quality draw Corteza put on to get down table on the closer side of the eight. I thought the gal in black on the right was funny on that shot Corteza jacked way up on at the rail. Her face looked like it would if she thought she was biting into an orange and got a lemon...and then she was first out of the gate with the applause...AND gave him the 'worship' bow. All pretty appropriate for that shot. I especially hate those, for some reason, when they are almost dead straight with that one about was, too. When you can do that to Filler, you know you are kickin' it. :-) Corteza really is not afraid to pull out a stroke and do some magic with the cue when necessary. Some pretty gutsy very accurate play there. Thx again for the great commentary Mark and Jeremy.

[@chrispafrieddreams9118]

Try aiming straight into the rail, on those , jacked up it throws the ball right in, I'm.talking about aiming outside the pocket by half s diamond..

[@kriskringle6173]

It literally doesnt get much better than this..wow. Josh just didnt hit them shots like he usually does. And Lee drilled him for his mistakes..and then some. Out standing play by Lee. Extremely impressive Some of the best pool I ever saw.

[@VioloTube]

Wow 😳....what a f....a performance from Corteza, never see something like that.....👏👏👏

[@AccuStats]

We agree!

[@NEdubz]

.978 is some pretty serious speed! Stronger than a 🧄 milkshake

[@dollyrayos1429]

[@markdignadice]

That was a statement win by the veteran Corteza. You may be world number one with the straightest stroke, but you don't scare me. I got shot-making skills myself plus a better than yours safety play. And I don't get pressured easily cause of my daily big money game experience against the best Filipino cueists.

[@RichardsWorld]

It's nice to see Josh is acting matured now. His young age and ability can take him places.

[@dukebmxrider]

49:20 lee van’s stroke and pattern play comes from Winifield Alvaran A.K.A “grandmaster sir perfecto” a washed up former Philippine national team player who is a local legend in 3 cushion billiards, nine ball and rotation. Grand master perfecto was my mentor during the early 2000s and was an influence to lee vans game during the late 90’s. Lee van took it to the next level he is a solid grandmaster & is my favorite player.

Lee van so far has the most winning rate against Joshua Filler

[@squeegied3rdeye713]

I'm confused by the sequence at 25:00 when Corteza broke, didn't make a ball, Filler pushed out, Corteza then played safe but Filler passed it back to him. Did I miss something??

[@52alkom]

I was confused at first then I put extra attention to details and this is what happened. Lee Van broke dry at 23:53 Joshua pushed at 24:17 Then you see Lee Van squaring up to take the shot at 25:06, however at 25:09 you can see only the hands, but he takes his chalk and walks away, so basically he didn't like the shot and put Joshua back You can confirm this, as the hand that takes the shot at 25:20 is a right bridge hand, with a glove and a half inch ferrule shaft. All contrary to lee vans left bridge hand, no glove and a one inch ferrule. Also Lee van doesn't wear a ring on his finger while he plays, Joshua does. Hope it clears that out for you.

[@squeegied3rdeye713]

@@52alkom duh it happened kinda quick i didn't see Joshs gloved hand quickly take the shot. He took a lot of quick rushed shots in this match. It's one thing to play fast and loose but that tactic obviously didn't work for him here he got smoked

[@52alkom]

@@squeegied3rdeye713 no worries. Yeah that specific moment bugged me as well so I had to pause the video and put the sherlock hat on lol. And well that's joshua for you. Pure straight talent and shot making. Usually this fast pace works well for him, as he at a young age has had great success. Im glad this time it didn't though, Lee Van is my #2 favorite player ever and he was absolutely dominating here. Joshua with time will eventually mature and combined with his great talent will probably dominate for a long time. Even if you shoot great, I would say you shouldn't rush yourself. Consistency is key.

[@squeegied3rdeye713]
