Players & Fans,

Congratulations to stop # 1 winners, Tom Cayer ($1,050 main event), Brandon Butler ($300 2nd Chance) & $1,800 Joss Cue raffle winner Bob Madenjian

Stop # 2 of my Joss Northeast 9-Ball Tour will be at Yale Billiards in Wallingford, CT on September 26 & 27 for a $2,000 ($1500+$500) added 9-ball event. Our host, Bobby Hilton, deserves much credit for continuing to bring our tour back to Connecticut. The Northeast is very lucky to have someone who promotes the game as well as Bobby! So let's come out in big numbers to show our support! Yale Billiards has been around for 30+ years with just the last few in their new building. They have a full bar with an extensive bar food menu to satisfy all of our needs.

This event will be played on Yale's 16 brand new Gold Crown VII"s for the very first time! There are also a few 7ft bar boxes for league play. Yale Billiards is also the home of the increasingly popular "The Sharkstream" which allows for live streaming league and tournament pool matches as well as our event. You can access the live stream on Facebook on "The Sharkstream" page or on YouTube by searching Yale Billiards Sharkstream. So come on down to compete or just watch another great tournament. Be sure to take a chance on winning a beautiful, $1,800 custom engraved Joss cue in the cue raffle. Anyone can participate and you do not have to be present to win! We will draw for the cue just prior to the finals of the main event.

This event at Yale Billiards will consist of a $1500 added Saturday and Sunday Main Event (entry Fee $120 for pro level or $70 for non pro level plus applicable tour fees) and a $500 added second chance event on Sunday ($20 Entry Fee) for those non pro players eliminated from the main event on Saturday. All of our billiard parlor main events are races to 9 on the winner’s side and races to 7 on the one loss side. I reserve the right to alter the format anytime to accommodate large fields or at the direction of the host room owners.

For those of you coming to play, you must arrive on Saturday September 26 , BEFORE 11:00 AM, and in proper dress. Jeans and sneakers are permitted in our billiard parlor events. But please, No T-shirts, No tanks, No shorts or sweats. The dress code will be strictly enforced!!! Complete tour info can be found on our site http://www.joss9balltour.com .

ALSO, I am Always looking for donations for our Joss Junior 9-Ball Championships! This season it is scheduled for March 13 at Brick House Billiards in Syracuse, NY. If you would like to donate any form of billiards items or cash it will be greatly appreciated as ALL proceeds go directly to the junior participants!! If you have a junior player 18 or under that would like to compete, please contact Jenn Wolfe at 315-920-5470.

Please remember to spread the word to frequent your local billiard parlors and utilize the world class products of our most generous sponsors. They are the backbone of our sport and deserve our support more than ever!!

I hope to see you all at Yale Billiards.
