Sorry we missed all you guys. We love watching the streams and even more, when we can go.
Speaking of going... We made the trip down to the anniversary party at Rusty's Billiards, in Fort Worth, TX. We had a blast, but we were also thinking of all you guys. It was also our 23rd wedding anniversary, so we celebrated our success, as well as theirs. :thumbup:
For anyone who went here and missed the Rusty's event, the results of the Rusty's event are posted here: http://forums.azbilliards.com/showthread.php?p=1957050
I hope the White Diamond event turned out well. I hope some of you at least missed us, too. :sad:
Congrats to all who took home a little something to remember the event.
We're looking forward to reading more about what we missed. So, fill us in.... There are folks who went to Rusty's, but were curious how this event was going, too. LIKE US!!

It was great! I wish they could have live streamed other tables so I could have seen more than one table at a time. When you have that many players of that caliber, you can't go wrong. Chris and Ashley run a great tournament. Good food. There were so many people you almost needed stadium seating to see the matches. The action was fast paced as well. Jermey Jones vs Cliff Joyner, Lil John vs Nick Vita, Lil John vs Shane Winters, Chris Miller vs Dave Parker . . . . . This was the first time I have seen many of these players. Jesse Bowman is a MONSTER on a bar box and runs out effortlessly, Chuck Raulston hammered through the entire losers side after losing his first match and picks up third (I think). I missed out on the finals, but assume that JJ won over Vita?
1st Jeremy Jones
2nd Nick Vita
3rd Chuck Raulston
4th JP Lopez
5-6th Gary Abood Bobby Johnson
7-8th Cliff Joyner Bobby Pickle
9-12th Jr. Davis Jesse Bowman Lil D <<<<not for sure on 9-12th
2nd Nick Vita
3rd Chuck Raulston

Your right about Chuck Raulston, he lost his very first match, then won like 13 in a row. Pretty damn strong. He ended up in 3rd.
Yah man thanks for the props buddy. I told Jesse when I had to play him Sunday in my first match in the winners don't make this $20 dollar player put your $2700 dollar ass in the losers bracket lol. (like there was a chance) I did have the lead in the match at one time. I won the first game! LOL Then I drew some guy from Pennsylvania (the sleeper in the tourny as Josh Hilliard asked Saturday) this guy killed me worse than Jesse honest truth I pushed out twice only time I shot lol. Stone Cold I will see you next time buddy will take you to Soops down the street. Never mind you get all that good cajun sh*t you live in Louisiana!
Well guys I will tell you this, it was a real pleasure to have Ray let me help him with the stream. I hope I did a good job. I tried real hard with the help of Glen from Neew OOOrleeeaaans and Big Truck to keep everyone posted on the action and who all the players are. I just hope that I did not screw up anything, miss anyones questions, or offend anyone. If I did it was not intentional. I love pool and have always loved to be associated with it even though I never had the talent like these champions.
How bout my man D Park for alot of people on the stream saying he had no chance being down 7 in a 10 a head and coming back. I think he just showed how big his ticker is and as we like to say when we bet on something get the cash! We knew we had the worst of it like everyone else. The problem is that we also know D Park just don't like sweating action as much as I do. He wants to play and will get out of line like he always does to try and get the cash!
I also wanted to say congrats to Jeremy Jones and Nick Vita for a great tournament. Anyone who can make it to the finals in a 128 man tournament deserves props!
Thanks again Ray for your effort in promoting pool and all these tournaments as well. Your hardwork makes it easy on the sweaters!portunity.
Sure thing buddy! :thumbup:
Juice,
I really appreciate your help with the reporting and commentating! You did a GREAT job!!! It was really fun being in the mix with you and Glenn!!!
Major props to my new friend Glenn Brathbury from Nawlins! Glenn also did a great job with the reporting and commenting.
I feel very fortunate to have had the support of two guys who know action as much as anyone around. If Juice and Glenn are going to an event, you better mark the calendar because it means action will be there!
Thanks to both of you!
Ray
