Chris Melling beat Mike Sigel twice in challenge matches.

[The Kid]

According to the IPT website Chris Melling beat Mike Sigel 8-7 at the Hard Times qualifier thus earning him free entries into the next 2 qualifiers.

This is a quote from the sportswriter's coverage at Hard Times.

"Mike Sigel is one for one today in his challenge matches. He went hill-hill against Chris Melling before succumbing 8-7, but he took his revenge on Mark Trainer 8-5. Melling earns free entry fees into the last two qualification events, while Sigel earns $2,000 for his win."

But then I noticed that Chris Melling played Sigel again and beat him again this time 8-4.
This was at the next qualifier at Country Club billiards.
The IPT website states that Chris Melling won free entry into the final qualifier in Weert.

I don't really understand how Melling would be allowed to have his name in the hat to play Sigel again, if he has already won the free entries.

Melling is a legend by the way.

Melling should have said something....if he had already played Mike he should have given that opportunity to another player.

Where was Deno Andrews? He should have known that Chris had already beaten Mike......
