Denis Grabe pulled off an unforgettable comeback to capture the 2025 Kamui Las Vegas Open title, overcoming a dominant start from Joshua Filler to force a dramatic shootout and clinch the championship.
What initially looked like a one-sided final turned into a battle for the ages. Filler came out firing, crushing the first two sets 4-0 and 4-1, seemingly in complete control. But in a stunning reversal, Grabe fought back, taking the third set 4-3 and then leveling the match with a commanding 4-1 victory in the fourth, shifting the momentum entirely.
That’s the magic of the Pro Billiard Series sets format—a match can turn at any moment, creating unmatched excitement for players and fans alike.
With everything on the line, the shootout delivered even more drama. Filler shot first and made his first three attempts, but Grabe matched him shot for shot. When Filler missed his fourth, the door opened for Grabe, who kept his nerves in check and delivered the winning shot to claim the title.
With the victory, Grabe earns $37,500, while Filler takes home $17,500 as the runner-up. The WPA-sanctioned event featured a 128-player field, making this a massive achievement for Grabe in one of the biggest tournaments of the Predator Pro Billiard Series calendar.
