WON MY FIRST LEAGUE FINAL! Wheee..... Dominated the finals also, got first place during the session, 4 teams qualified for finals, we won the first match 3-1 games, I was the only one that lost a set but it was because I was upset that the guy I was playing was ranked a 5 to my 6 and I knew he was as good of a player as me. I don't put up for sandbagging and it throws me off when I see it.
The finals last night were a bit smoother. We won 3-0 and beat them by scores of 4-1, 5-0 (me) and 4-1. They only won 2 racks the whole night. I played a lot better than in the first match last week, I had a break and run and several 6-7 ball run outs on a tough table. I was also in the top 3 for top shooter in my skill rating in the league and since I played very well I am hoping that was enough to push me over to first place. There was only about a 5% win/loss ratio between me and the first place guy, with the 5-0 win now that should help.
Of course the prize is nothing to brag about, a $550 entry payment for nationals for TAP, does not include hotel or travel. Which means I'll just be taking my 1/7th cut of the cash. Well technically 2/7 because my son was also in the league.
