Corey DEUEL vs. Joshua FILLER - 42nd U.S. OPEN 9-BALL CHAMPIONSHIPS (2017)

[@tomalderman7598]

Hope Corey will start playing more events.

[@AdamMarr]

Filler has improved much in the last 5 years. You wouldn't see him make some of those mistakes like that now.

[@cakins1986]

Yeah, this would be a massive upset in 2023.

[@wilsongalbraith5341]

1:44:50 - Josh and Pia take a sip of water at the exact same time.

[@edyoung3664]

saw that too

[@JustSaying290]

Soul mates I guess

[@jann326]

Corey’s bridge looks so stable

[@davidparker8752]

I always think the same thing. I’ve tried to replicate it and my fingers don’t even bend like that! 😳🤣

[@FlyingBanana78]

Corey has gorilla hands. They're huge

[@randallgibson8619]

I don’t see how he gets his fingers bent like that! I really wish I could get a bridge like that established on a high ball shot.

[@mikemorgan8646]

The winner didn't scream and jump on the table, thank you.

[@HillbillyIslandLife]

It wasn't the finals. He would look foolish for jumping on the table for advancing to 7th/8th... .. ..

[@mikewest712]

@@HillbillyIslandLife especially considering this match was on the losers bracket.

[@babyylonn]

it's only filer that behave that way, he's a child after all.

[@louisevillebrun3854]

OK earl is 🤪

[@tgh223]

[@sonco3938]

wonderful match

[@Mike-e1b4h]

I love watching 👀 Corey play 🎱 and he wins Everytime! 😁

[@jinkyong467]

Sure, he use his iq to play pool, look like he enjoy it not play though

[@edwingenio2038]

Go corey

[@tommydickon1098]

Fantástico jugador

[@neuvocastezero1838]

Thanks again Pat Flemming!

[@markabrice]

Does Deuel ever smile? Answer: kinda. I think I detected a hint of a smile at 1:32:14. Oh, and a big one at the win! Hats off to Corey, one of the best matches I've seen him play.

[@steves2241]

Mark talked about what a great guy Corey is, and what a great sense of humor he has. So I ran into Corey at a pool tournament a few years ago at Big Dog Billiards in Iowa. He was in-between matches sitting there waiting for a cue repair guy to put a new tip on one of his cues. I was also in-between matches and I had just bought a new Meucci cue, a BMC pro series 5 custom cue signed by Bob Meucci. I knew that Corey was sponsored by Meucci so as I was walking by where he was sitting I said Hi Corey, I just got a new Meucci cue and I really like it, and then I asked him how he liked playing with a Meucci, he looked at me and he said one word, fine. And that was it, then I stood there for a little bit waiting to see if he would say anything else. Then he turned his head away from me without saying another word, so I stood there for a few seconds more, and walked away. In closing, he seemed like a jerk who was hoping I would just leave him alone and go away. And he was not doing a damn thing, just sitting and waiting for his cue to be repaired. You would think a guy who was sponsored by Meucci would talk to another player who was using a Meucci cue, and at least ask to see the cue, or say something more than one word and turn his head away, which is a clue that he does not want to talk to you. I was sort of mad about it, and I almost said ok see you later jerk. That was the first thought that came into my head, but I did not do it, and I just walked away thinking he was a jerk.

[@Joshua_t_]

He’s a jerk because he didn’t give you some attention that you think he owes you because you bought a cue from a company that sponsors him?

[@slayyedd]

You are SOFT, grow a pair steve

[@Heriberto-l1r]

No mention of Fillers great comeback..now that was heart even though Corey is my favorite

[@tyronemosley6810]

Filler lost this Duel to the prince of pool....

[@jasonjohnson35]

Why was he leaving the last ball off the rack and trying to get them tight? When I rack I put all 9 balls on and feather the sides and it's tight. It just took forever between games. Other than that it was a great match!

[@mikewest712]

Can someone explain the jackets? They took a break and came back wearing jackets.

[@williambarnes-fg3oh]

at these large events the temperature in the arena will often change quickly and drastically in either direction... Likely that the A/C had began to churn out some cold air and they simply would rather deal with the bulkiness and higher chance of an incidental foul than dealing with being cold.

[@stephencushing8148]

If you aren’t gonna allow jackets, you gotta at least make the room a comfortable temp

[@zgoosekeeper]

The Fillers look EXHAUSTED.

[@giannigunn5247]

I don’t mean to sound derogatory against the Great hall of fame, announcer, Danny but the term for breadbox I believe it’s either a rough dialect translation. Where is completely wrong banzo is actually monk or priest. Scalto di pane is breadbox if anybody else can correct me on that I would appreciate it being that I’ve been fluent in Italian since I was born

[@kennybuttons1763]

Thee ol jacket game.

[@miltonvanceiii2766]

1:27:10 I gotta find me one of them “dogs playing pool” tommy bahama shirts. 🔥

[@danielkim2997]

turn the heat on?

[@chrisharris8223]

The judge from my cousin vinny also played in the original pet semetery

[@neuvocastezero1838]

I wonder what kind of shaft Filler is using, I don't think carbon shafts were widely available in 2017.

[@asherdoty652]

They don’t need to be widely available for the best players in the world to get them though

[@raskolnjikov1]

It was REVO

[@denispaskal2326]

why corey break with his playing stick

[@mikewest712]

Lots of them did. What with the jackets?

[@blueak3339]

1:47:00

[@anon2414]

Basic shot dude

[@samtoallusers]

Corey is a champion period he has won at at least one world open nine ball. I would put my money on corey playing filler for cash.

[@liyexiang666]

don't understand Corys decision on the ball in hand

[@anhnhatang4545]

Filler đi chấm còn nhanh hơn trọng tài xếp bi

[@Rickbearcat]

If their clothing touched the ball, but the ball did not move, is it still considered a foul?

[@duffyrobert19]

Yes

[@babyylonn]

he doesn't have that many chances against big players who play calmly and calmly. filer , you can go play at leisure parks

[@heribertopabon7366]

Leave it to Grady to say Corey is intimidated by Filler when Corey's beaten Efrem Reyes at his best..Grady like to compare himself with these high level pros lol

[@duffyrobert19]

Grady Mathews died about 10 years. Are you perhaps referring to Danny DiLiberto?

[@suewoo5]

Grady mathews was one helluva player and very very knowledgeable. Danny is annoying af but he's also a knowledgeable player, just not nearly as smart or interesting as Grady. Grady could hang w these boys in straight pool lol

[@johnpaul7756]

Danny too funny

[@lazylightning9378]

Hey did you guys notice they're wearing jackets?

[@mikemorgan8646]

Filler's wife wasn't exactly "glowing".

[@raskolnjikov1]

🤣🤣🤣 of course she wasn´t, she is so in her masculine that it drains her

[@lacc01]

Pia looks like she had a terrible night!

[@f1k199]

Buddy called filler gf fatter than he is. Not cool man. Lol

[@wvfourwheeler8125]

He said she looked sadder, not fatter.

[@rackyballboa5744]

Good match, I thought Filler was going catch up and beat Corey towards the end.

[@onepocketnovice]

Why even make an assertion like that? Like, who asked?

[@TheHydred]

wacky observation

[@duffyrobert19]

Not an absurd assertion, as others would think. Joshua had run 4 nearly flawless racks, and 2 more were definitely in the realm of possibility.

[@acedimacali7377]

Your facts are inaccurate!

[@dshadow3173]

Just can't watch grown men play with the 9 racked on the spot. One of the worst things ever brought into pool.

[@virginiad2592]

Everyone talks about the players loving this game. Between Joshua, Pia and Corey, I've never seen 3 more miserable-looking people!

[@dawitgerim3502]

corey is not in the mood of playing that why it didn't end 11 to 2

[@liakosliakos348]

at 1:45:00 watch its hilarious

[@bradburtrand1527]

Stop complaining about their coats

[@MrKeysersoze1981]

Dude doing intro needs to go. Damn that lip smacking.

[@kingstaff4]

I think that jackets look terrible says the commentator. Big cry baby shouldn’t be commentating. He’s always crying and complaining about the players.

[@NoName-ml5yk]

Those street jackets do look crappy.

[@NoName-ml5yk]

@Karl Childers Yes and when you're trying to promote the game image does matter. Super serious fans may not care all that much, but they aren't the entire target audience.

[@NoName-ml5yk]

@Karl Childers Your point is not clear? It is in the interest of Accu-stats to promote the game.

[@heribertopabon9613]

First that one announcer says Corey's intimidated by Jashua ha ha ha Corey beat Efren Reyes at his best.. he's have the new kid in the block a nice lesson

[@robdetuinman2]

This was 2017 so like 6 years ago. Deuel hasn't won much in those last years while Filler won practically everything
