Congrats to Jim for his stellar performance at the Hollywood Billiards tournament this last weekend. He posts here regularly, but I don't know if he wants his forum name mentioned.

Cornerman, are you checking this out? Our UMASS pool buddy is hitting 'em pretty straight?

VIP, have you been to our Island since your participation in the 2004 Gran Prix of Puerto Rico?

Hi Bro. Acosta,

No, unfortunately I haven't except for a little shopping. Shortly after playing in the Gran Prix (which I truly enjoyed, thanks for a wonderful experience), I had to close my pool room, and I was so depressed about that and the state of the game in the VI that I didn't play for close to two years. I just started playing again in October, and I'm looking forward to coming over in the next few months. I'm on Ray's email list, so I know about the events, but I've been waiting until my game (and my cash) are in proper order.

Say hello to everyone for me, and I look forward to seeing you guys soon!

Venceremos!
Rudy

Edit: Now that I think about this some more, I should probably come over on some weekends when there are no tournaments, and work out with some of the players. I don't have either the competition or the proper equipment (I'm currently forced to play and practice on 8-footers) over here, and I really need to spend some time on some real tables with other good players! If you can, please send me some info on a cheap hotel or bed and breakfast near to El Criollo or another good room so that I can minimize lodging and transportation costs. Then I'll be set to spend some more time in PR.
