I mean Roberto Gomez isn’t exactly a scrub. Guy has won major events so surprising, but not really.

Last time I heard anything about Ralf was around 10 years ago or so.
I heard he was not doing to well do to some serious health issues due to diabetes complications.
Years ago like mid 70's we used to go to Fort Worth to gamble with those guys, there was a 24 hour bowling alley named Meadow Brook Bowling Alley that was the after hours action spot in Fort Worth.

Fat Ralf Cortez & Bird Frank Thompson were two of the top guys we got action with.
Both of those guys had a very different unique playing style, anybody that saw them play knows what I am talking about lol
Both those guys back then could really play.

I only saw him play once and was very impressed with his light touch and smooth game. I heard he died young.

I wish I was there! Looks like Dennis is playing lights out, and many of the top players are there. I love the added action that comes with the calcutta's. Big paydays there. I'm not ready to fly though and Texas is not where I want to be right now. I'll stay in my cocoon here for a little bit longer.

Would you be required to quarantine upon return to Cali ?

I thought finals were today! I got the two day pass because I missed day one and they said finals today!

Will I be able to watch?

14 year old Jr Champion Lazaro Martinez lll just eliminated Roberto Gomez from the 9 Ball division in a hill hill thriller.

Kid played pretty sporty

$4000 for Dennis is a hell of an investment. Honestly seems a little low. Wish I could have been there.
