Four of the five Euro Tour events which count towards the rankings have now been played.

October’s Dutch Open will be the final Euro Tour event used for Mosconi Cup ranking points and with twenty points awarded for winning the event, ten players could […]

2013 PartyPoker.net Mosconi Cup – Europe rout the USA

4th December, 2013 PartyPoker.net Mosconi Cup It’s Europe in a landslide USA 2-11 Europe Strickland & Hatch 3-6 Appleton & Souquet Earl Strickland 4-6 Karl Boyes Hatch & Morris 4-6 Immonen & Feijen TEAM EUROPE completed their finest ever PartyPoker.net Mosconi Cup win, as they beat the Americans 11-2, the second biggest winning margin in the 20 year history of the event. Needing three more points going into the third day, they reeled off the first three matches to hand out a humiliating defeat to the USA. It was Europe’s fourth win on the trot and their sixth in seven years. With a star-packed team, many felt that this was the Americans best chance in a while but after losing the first day 5-0, the writing was on the wall. America won two points on Tuesday but all in all it was a lame performance that will leave many questions. It was Niels Feijen, partnered by Mika Immonen, who downed the winning 9 ball and the final point of this year’s event gave the Dutchman […]

3rd December, 2013 PartyPoker.net Mosconi Cup Europe within three after another great day USA 2-8 Europe Archer & Morris 4-6 Boyes & Feijen Dennis Hatch 5-6 Ralf Souquet Strickland & Van Boening 6-5 Appleton & Immonen Johnny Archer 0-6 Niels Feijen Morris & Van Boening 6-5 Immonen & Boyes ONLY A MIRACLE now will prevent Europe winning their fourth consecutive PartyPoker.net Mosconi Cup as they once again got the better of their American opponents, winning three out of the five matches on Tuesday and now need just three points for victory. For the Americans at least they can take heart from the fact that they opened their account and are still alive in the event, but otherwise it was another disappointing day for the legion of American fans at the Mirage in Las Vegas. The USA will need to win at least three out of tomorrow’s five matches to take the 20th Mosconi Cup into a final day. “We won another session and that is the most important thing,” said European captain Johan Ruijsink. “The […]

2013 PartyPoker.net Mosconi Cup – Europe in Day One rout

2nd December, 2013 PartyPoker.net Mosconi Cup Europe rampant after day one white-wash USA 0-5 Europe USA 3-6 Europe Morris/Strickland 3-6 Appleton/Boyes Shane Van Boening 5-6 Mika Immonen Archer/Hatch 3-6 Feijen/Souquet Rodney Morris 4-6 Darren Appleton TEAM EUROPE created the biggest first day lead in PartyPoker.net Mosconi Cup history as they won all five matches at the Mirage Hotel in Las Vegas to establish a 5-0 lead and give the USA a huge mountain to climb. A win in the team game got things underway, before two doubles victories and singles wins for Mika Immonen and Darren Appleton piled on the misery for the Americans. The much-vaunted change in the break rules saw an inordinate number of dry breaks and it was the Europeans who played the better pool and made the least number of mistakes to build up a mammoth lead. Commented European captain Johan Ruijsink, “It has never happened before and it is such a huge lead that you cannot be anything other than delighted. I expect the Americans will bounce back but 5-0 […]
