Justin Bergman has the complete package. Tony Robles and I sat and watched him play last month in Jacksonville and we were amazed at this kid's ability, confidence, and his complete lack of fear.

Stan Shuffet has done an excellent job with Landon. Landon is more of a methodical player than Justin Bergman. In about 5-10 years this will be one heck of a good matchup. Overall, I'd give the nod to the guy that will go for the big shots... and that's Justin Bergman. There are many fine up and coming players that play phenomenally well.

Hey Dave,
Just out of curiousity...after watching him play, could you beat Justin? Or did the two of you happen to play?

In the 14 and under division, keep an eye out for Mike Tosado, a solid "B" player from New York City who plays out of the Amsterdam Billiard Club.

SJM,
It appears from the brackets that Mike is still alive. I played in a D-level 9-Ball league with him at Corner a while back (I ended up winning that league, he wasn't playing well in the heat back then). He has grown in leaps and bounds in maturity and ability since then. His dad's a nice guy too..

Thanks for update.
Mike Mallen finished 5/6th last year as 13 year old so it is not much of a suprise to see him going strong again... Has a good eye and really fires away at the balls.

vbookie

Does anyone want to vbookie on the bca junior nationals? And if so would some one explain to me exactly how the vbookie works. Or if no one wants to explain, then some one needs to tell me to search the archives because its been explained before how vbookie works.

It's just betting V-cash on who will win a match or the tournament. If your right you get more v-cash, if your wrong you lose it. Pretty simple.
