Money Match TV 14 is on Saturday 20th August, the headline match is our defending champion, Matt Lawrenson against Craig Osborne.
Lawrenson has already proven that he has some pedigree beating the 9-time MMTV champion Arfan Dad 21-12 last time out. In addition to this result Lawrenson also has a European Junior title to his name and a GB9 Challenge Cup win as well.
It is one of the most interesting match-ups we have seen at Money Match TV as there is no doubt in anyone’s mind that Craig Osborne is a quality player. It will be his first outing at the Vegas Bar in front of the MMTV camera’s but he is no stranger to top level pool. The Ipswich based cueist recently lifted his second GB9 main tour title with a victory over Imran Majid at the Northern Masters just two weeks ago and before work commitments took precedence he was also a top 16 ranked player on the EPBF Eurotour.
The match is being played for a minimum £2000.00 per man with talk of possibly a £6000.00 total pot.
Whatever happens it will be a thriller with the usual race-to-21 racks, winner break format in operation. The player that can control the break will no doubt end up being the winner as has been proven by so many MMTV nights!
