I had a pretty good tournament, finished tied for 28th from a field of 501 players. I did manage to beat Rodney Morris by a score of 3 to 1, my last game was a break and run 5 and out. Failed to get by Alex the lion Pagulayon, he won 3 to 1. Met Fast Eddie from this board, also Steve Booth, and John Henderson. I'm 72 and have played in all 18 of the DCCs.

Fantastic run Jim -- I saw you right after your win over Rodney and you were feeling good! Incidentally I saw Rodney a little later and he said something like, "That old guy sure could bank!"

Very well done.

I wish I could have seen you play. I am half your respectable age and fared WAY worse...but had a great time.

Again, Congrats.

Pulling for the monster and monster nice dude, Mr. John Brumback here down the stretch. Love that guy...

I realized later that I had made 9 banks in a row, banked 4 and out in game three, then broke and ran 5 and out in game 4 for a total of 9 in the same inning.

Really impressive, Jim. Sorry we didn't meet. Next year.

I have been playing banks with Big Jim since 1964, and he can bank. I saw him beat Efren twice in banks in the same match. He made his winning bank only to see the cue ball scratch. Talk about a cooler, we were both devastated, however he re-grouped and made the final ball to beat Efren. Of course, I heard about that match for a year or two......Good Playing Jim
