I might be bias because he knocked me to the losers side in the 3rd round last night but Shane Manole seems to be playing pretty well. He broke & ran 4 of his breaks against me. He plays Chen this morning on the winners side.

Thanks for the update. I got a call late last night. He told me that he played a really strong women player his 3rd match and was a bit nervous about it. Hope he continues playing well and I hope that you kick butt and take names on the B side:smile: .

Get These Players To Fast Eddies In Lafayette Next Weekend!!!!

I really expected Lewis & Paul to be in Houston talking up the Lafayette tourny. They ARE some busy people though!

Ted did make an announcement about the Lafayette tourney! And.....the White Diamonds event. Sounds like the tournament trail to me!! LOL.

Ray

Finals starting soon!!! Shane WILL have to double dip Bastrop!

Hot Seat winner from Bastrop,TX., James Davis Sr. aka "Bastrop". Has been playing the tournament circuit for as long as I can remember!! His name can be found in tournaments like the Red's event that Cesar Morales won back in 1985!! Both feared and respected on the table.

His opponent...... we all know this young man's accolades!! 2007 US Open Champion, 2007 World 10 Ball Champion, spawed from a family of champions, with numerous national titles!!! Shane Van Boening. Already lost the hot seat match to James 9-5!! Will take some real cunning to pull this one off!!
