Stumbled on to this wonderful demonstration of straight pool must be prior to Oliver hurting his right arm. What a player it’s no wonder they call him “The Machine” Always loved the Miz.
Almost! And he´s capable of playing like that still today, especially when it comes to straight pool. Kind regards from the austrian Billiard family. And there are no Kangaroos in Austria ;-)))
Actually he said "Oh shit man!!" And Oliver spotted the shot immediately, of course he wished for another oportunity, but believe me, he spotted it. No offence, especially not to the Miz, he was without question one of games greatest! Kind Regards!
helpin him on that 2 ball - true champion that want's the run to continue! Players like this are fading away
Miz spotted that 2 ball right off the bat.
Oliver "The Machine" Ortmann in his prime, conquering USA with his flamboyant straight pool. A real treat to watch.

Miz after ball 113 - "You're a dead man". then helps him find a shot for #114. What a great ambassador for the game.
Ortmann plays like he's got an early train to catch. Love it!
Best & most entertaining 14.1 I have ever seen.
Ein toller Kerl der Ortmman,ich kannte ihn inden 90ern ,kam er nach Fellbach(Stuttgart)bzog die Tische,,,,,,
one of the more entertaining matches for sure.
thx Dennis.
A pleasure to sit through!

Wonder what Ortmann is up to these days? Haven't seen him out on tour. His skill and strategy demonstrated here is so good!
Love the way the balls sound hitting the ball return.
The miz only missed once. Oliver had the cueball on a string however. Great match.
Oh yeah, very well worth watching! Oliver is in dead punch here!
Holy shit!

The pockets are BUCKETS.
that was the standard back then. In more recent years pocket size has changed a lot.
Excellent match love @ 37:36 he switches to left hand
"Your problem is you play too straight" :) Who says straight pool can't be a spectator sport?
