Checked in the room yesterday afternoon and headed to Family Billiards for a little practice and to get familiar with the equipment. I used to play here quite a bit when I lived in the East Bay over 10 years ago.

Practiced a bit and went to dinner with Amar & Gilbert to a Cuban Restaurant in the Mission District. Great food and a little sangria to wash it down.

Back to the pool room and matched up with local player Hugo for a little action. Got stuck a couple games then got ahead a couple games and finally got even & quit. We have played three sessions now and I am one game winners.

Cole Dixon is here with his daughter who is on leave from the Air Force. Some other old friends trickled in and I'm sure I will see many more today.

Sylver Ochoa may still be in town and if he is I would make him a favorite along with Raphael Martinez and Billy Palmer right there too.

Should be a great time and Hard Times own Tom Suarez will run the added $$ tournament. It is a race to three, double elimination, so we will be here awhile.

I'll update more tonight.

Say Hi to Coley for me...Is he playing in the tournament ? Hard to believe that wet-eared kid has a daughter old enough to be in the service...He must be getting old...

Good Luck...!..(Did Hugo break his stick when you quit even ?)...
