                                                                                           2010  1 - Wall Money Game
Joe Durso vs. David Chapman

Speaking of Joe Durso, this clip shows a perfect example (at 17 minutes in) of his typical antics at the Coney Island courts. Joe often exploded when he was behind,

stategically hoping to get into the head of his opponent. Concurrently, watch the understated response of Chapman

- controlling the cadence of the game, which contributed to his legacy as a four-wall champion.

Satish Jagnandan v Pee Wee Castro

This match includes commentary by the always colorful Joe Durso, famed one-wall

champ and spectacle of the Coney Island courts. Joe actually does a nice job 

   of explaining the nuances of the one wall game in this clip.  If you are unfamiliar

with one wall, this match demonstrates it at its best.
