Pasted from my MySpace bulletins. This was from Hard Times Sacramento, Ca
So our first of the month tournament for March is done. As I walk in the room I look around on Saturday during the One Pocket portion of the event and see Billy Palmer walking around. Needless to say I was very surprised to see the big man looking well. Although he did not win the one pocket event this time, (Frank Nordman took first) he did play well enough to fininsh in the top ten.
Sunday rolls around and we get 48 players in our 9 ball event. Small turnout maybe due to the Bar Box event held in Reno. Roger Estelle took first by defeating Jeff Gregory (winner of hot seat match) 6-2 & 4-1 after going through the one loss side early. During the early stages of our tournament, Director Tom "Sactowntom" Suarez asked that I take over the directors chair because he is feeling sick? Little did I know that he suffered a very mild heart attack. I contacted Tom last night and he informed me that he will be released March 4th but will not be back to run any of our other tournaments for one week. We wish him a speedy recovery and are very thankful that our other tournament director Ken Schuman will be in place to run the rest of our tournaments.
Thank you and good luck to all,
HTB
