I had an easy first round opponent. Some dude named Mike Dechaine. . Oh well. There were a couple highlights anyway.

I am currently watching the young gun Billy Thorpe play another kid named little Dee race to 25 in 10 ball for 5,000. Edit... I could only watch for 20 minutes. Boring compared to 1p IMO.

That's undoubtedly Little D from Hattiesburg, Miss. He's a straight shooter, and loves the action.

In the banks, I see Chicago Mike made it to the 8th round, meaning he's getting into the nice money. He has to play Justin Hall, who was probably one of the guys favored to win the event, so Mike will have his hands full. They both have one loss.

Brumback and Daulton still undefeated. Daulton squares of against Jamie Farrell this morning. Jamie is a sharpshooter who owns a poolroom in New Orleans. He spent a good bit of time in Chicago, where he learned to play top level banks.

I'm surprised to see Bobby Hunter get to the 8th round undefeated. Bobby is a straight pool champion, and a good 1P player. Evidently he can bank as well.

In the 1P, our man Tom Wirth won his first match. Unfortunately I think his opponent was another one of our guys, Ace (Walter Kelley). Bernie P. also won.

Interestingly there is both a "Chris" Gentile, and a "Christopher" Gentile in the 1P. At first I thought it was a mistake, but yet they're playing different opponents on different tables. That's quite a coincidence.

I got the same impression and was disappointed. I saw him at a tournament late last year and I thought he might have straightened up.

If I'm reading it right, the final three in the banks are Brumback, Daulton, and Reyes. What a trio! As I recall, they draw to see who gets the bye. All three have used their buy-backs. It seems to me that they ought to play round robin from here. A lucky draw for the bye into the final is mammoth at this late point! In a contest of skill I don't believe that a guy should be able to get a bye into the final match.

Semis at 4:00, Final at 8:00.

P.S. Chicago Mike finished high up in the standings. Great tournament, Mike!

I meant to tell you, Mitch - you did last 42 minutes, which ain't bad. Seriously, though, you put some balls up on your side each game and gave him some fits. How about him short circuiting when you wouldn't concede the game? Dechaine was on his last ball and shot it haphazardly as if to say, "you should be giving me this ball." Best part? Dude misses it!

I see our man Lou Figueroa has gotten to the 6th round with only one loss. Keep it going, Lou!

Bernie Pettipiece is still undefeated after besting an always tough Tang Hoa from L.A.

And John Brumback is also undefeated in the 1P so far. Good luck John!!

Mitch is my buddy, but you guys need to ignore his po-mouthin'.... sumbitch plays pretty darned well. I'll say about him what Cardone said about the Ghost... He's sneaky.



Hey Mitch... I warned you I was gonna rat you out.



(I ain't knockin'... just 'splainin' :heh )
