A real treat to watch one of the old school legends on the table. Weenie Beanie was most noted for his one pocket game, but a real pleasure to see him play straight pool. Ortmann was but a 'child' in this tournament, but it's evident the Europeans play a tough game of 14.1.
The match was up on CZcams for a long while but then AccuStats decided to be smart and start placing copyright claims on all their videos. And yeah, not exactly a riveting finals.
i miss beanie and genes pool room--place had some real characters--and that stupid amos and andy game--they loved that thing--nobody ever had better burgers than them either........
I love straight pool. Straight is where your true talent comes out
Thanks for posting most enjoyable.

lol..that 1 ball call was amazing..it could have meant the whole match to miss there
Ortmann won the U.S. Open 1989 with a final against Steve Mizerak. It would be great, if someone could up this one
I have to CD, they both played poorly but Oliver still won...race to 200.

Good to see weenie . All I heard is how he kept pool players pockets fats with his money lol. Lost over 6 figured to a couple people easily.
Sounds like wrestlers
Close match. Both players had idiosyncrasies you don't see so often these days. Good play, though.
