It is just a little under 1 week until the next Tournament, Saturday December 9, 2006.
$30. Entry, NO Pros or anyone who has finished 5-6th or better in a major event ie Fast Eddies 9Ball Tour, Midwest tour etc….For a flyer CLICK HERE .We are committed to having a good time! Minis will start mid afternoon ( anyone can play in the minis). We will have a selection of custom cues, production cues, billiard supplies and a really HOT bartender. Look forward to seeing you there!


Here's the RESULTS from last month.

We had 42 players make their way to Waco for the $30 entry monthly tournament at Clicks Billiards. There were players from all over the state…...Dallas,Denton,Mckinney,Wichita Falls,Houston,Austin,San Antonio and of course Waco. This created an interesting dilemma for everyone at the auction. No one knew very many people, creating an atmosphere of caution.

The top picks for this months event were Crispian NG, Gary Vanover,John Rollins,Charlie Rikard and Benny Scott. Of these, only 2 would finish in the money.

Our 5-6th finishers were Charlie Rikard (a regular top pick) and local “young gun” Jonathan Neuman, who’s game is really maturing. “Good job” to our local guys!

Finishing 4th was Shonn Ballew from Houston. Shonn is one hell of a shot and always fun to be around. Great Job Shonn!

Third place went to Mark Church, a very solid player who looked like he was going all the way from the very beginning. Nice work Mark!

Jeff Georges,from the McKinney area,started out strong by defeating a very strong “old school” player Newell Bullard 7-3, Royce Bunnell of OB1-Cues 7-4, TJ Carew 7-1 and then top pick Charlie Rikard 7-4 for a chance to play for the “Hot Seat”.

Coming in strong AND solid was another top pick Gary Vanover, yes the son of Texas pool legend Bob Vanover. Gary started out by defeating Austin "straight shooter" Steve Kilgore 7-5, Roddy Chim of DFW area 7-1, Mark Church 7-4, then Shonn Ballew of Houston 7-5 for an exciting “Hot Seat” match with Jeff Georges.

Everyone watching was saying, “It’s Georges” ,and that is exactly how it went in the “Hot Seat” match as Jeff would defeat Gary Vanover 7-3. Gary was not easily discouraged though as he went over to the one loss side to defeat Mark Church 5-2 for another shot at Jeff Georges in the race to nine finals. Both players were tired and playing loose at the start, but the one who kicked it up a notch and closed it out was Gary Vanover 9-3. Great Playing to Jeff Georges, whom I’m sure we’ll be seeing more of, and congratulations to Gary Vanover our new Champion.

Jesus and I should be there Ray. I'll try and convince Doc and a few others to go as well.
 
Crispian and I will probably make it out; hopefully we can bring a couple of others as well.

Leroy did make an appearance but didn't enter any minis. Rody on the other hand cleaned up, winning all the minis!

I may have some scheduling issues on making the Fast Eddies 9Ball season finally in SA but will send some flyers for the Waco DEC 9 event, minimum.

Thanks

It IS a one day event...........howEHHHHver a 2 day event is a lot O' fun. If you haven't made one of the Fast Eddies 9ball Tour stops, It is definetely one of the best venues.Whether your a player or a railbird you can have a great time and make some green. We have talked about expanding the field and going to 2 days in Waco, but nothing carved in stone yet.

Look forward to seeing you guys, bring your game!

Thanks,

***remember the winner has their entry paid to the Fast Eddies 9ball tour.
 
do i need to sign up in advance? or can i just pay my entry there? i'd hate to get there and find out that the field is full.

right now i'm about 60/40 on going there.. i got laid off last week, and am searching for jobs.
 
Call when your leaving.........

Sorry to hear about the layoff......I'm sure it will lead to something better.

You WILL have a spot if you will call when your leaving.

Thanks
