busty up 10-4 day one in the books.
Well I was kind of thinking that because Corey had a few scratches that were very costly for example and he also had a number of balls that just hung up in his pocket that could’ve been game changers had they dropped. But obviously Bustamante played really well — I mean nearly faultlessly. So I’m not sure what Corey could have done to win yesterday but a few better rolls would have definitely helped!!I'm wondering if Bustamante was getting good rolls the whole first day (like making the ball in the illustration)?
Corey spotting Busty 6 on a race to 30 (10-4 first day) would not be his dream matchup.. Maybe Corey will catch a wind and even 'er up.

Busty got in on the 4th.Over 10 years ago Bustamante went up to Sacramento accompanying Efren to play in Chuck Markulis' Jamboree. A great event which combined 9 ball and one pocket. My man JJ Jenkins who used to record matches on VHS caught the affair. It was one of the few times Francisco entered into a one pocket event and his game was running 8 and out. Efren and other one pocket aficionados were laughing at the way Francisco played. He had no idea of safety play and shot at everything. The whole antithesis to the "Chicago game". Fortunately it is recorded on tape for history. Francisco even is caught laughing at himself.
But his years of being on the road with Efren seemed to benefit him. He shot shots last night that wouldve made Efren proud. Some carom shots as well as combination bank shots just was amazing. His complete control of cueball and his pocketing ability makes for him one of the deadliest money player today.
I look to Corey to do much better today. Corey has skills with the rack and if he catches Busty sleeping can jump ahead. FB cannot underestimate Corey.
PS FB did fly in from the Philippines so both were on jet lag.
Yes. And he is spotting Corey about 12 yearsBusty got in on the 4th.
