Alex finally won to go hill/hill but almost gave it away. Up 6 to -1, ball in hand in the kitchen he shot a spot shot and made it but ricocheted off a ball by Justin's pocket (that I thought he was sure to hit) and scratched. The game eventually got to 5-3 before Alex won it.

Alex to Break hill-hill.

Alex takes the cheese... 8 'n out.

Wins 5 of the last 6 games.

Bergman looked a little tired and tried to win it a little too fast at the end IMO. He had chances but Alex did what he had to do to win it, like he always does.

The hot seat match was between these two and pretty much the same. Justin had him 2/0 and Alex won three in a row.

Alex just plays too good. Everything he does is perfect. His pace at the table also has to be considered a factor when playing him. He is very deliberate and if you are used to a ram jam type of pace, that can take you out of your game. However in this match Bergman also plays with the same type of pace so the best player won period.

Alex also looked like he would also win the nine ball, winning the hot seat match against Shane McMinn, who played well but was outgunned.

Alex lost in the final race to 13 to Rodney Morris who is also on a tear, winning in Wyoming against a tough field last weekend.

The tables looked a little soft and the top players were running out anytime the balls were spread.

Great stream by Big Truck and poolactiontv.com who will be at Bogies next week for the Senior One Pocket Classic.
