I just finished talking to Gregg Sullivan, we talked about the last DCC in regard to the good and bad points. We covered just about all the questions one would have if interested in attending. Some of the good points were that the security was much better than at the Exec West, and the food was also better, plus the concession stands were always open. He assured me that there would be more restaurants open this year over last year, based on the severity of the winter storm that precluded workers from getting there. He also said that the hotel was allotting him an extra 100 rooms this year. That will help a lot of the people that had to travel from outside hotels. I asked him about the gambling area, that is one of the big attractions at the old DCC that was missing the first year at the new location. We agreed that gambling at pool was what really made the DCC a special event, and this year he would make changes with the gambling areas. There is a room on the second floor above the tournament room, where there are 8 tables, he is thinking about making that room the official gambling area. In addition to that he said that after tournament play ends (daily)about 12:00 pm the tournament room would be available for gambling. But please be discreet. Well it seems to me that the next DCC will be much improved, and we all should be looking forward to attending. I know I am, basically because I enjoy the gambling end of it, in addition to the tournament play.

For those who would like to compete with me gambling the following is a resume of the last 3 years that i've put together.Below is my resume for the past three years ( approx. )

In the past three years playing players I have lost $53,000, but there are still people that refer to me as a player who only plays with the nuts. I guess the people that make those unfounded statements are people that really don't know, but are quick to try to impress people that they are among the smarts.

Bill Incardona the nut player still wants to play, Who's next?

Billy, Was anything mentioned about whether Accu-Stats would be at this years Derby? I can't seem to get an answer in the DCC forum.

one and done

Great post Billy. Can't wait to see you in action again this year.

I would like to play Shane again, but considering how easy he beat me i'd be a fool to play the same game. I got 1 hit and the pick from him, broke for the same pocket, and if I made a ball on the break I would pick then shoot.He beat me 5 games straight, and they were'nt even close. He really played well. If someone can convince the Mars Man to let him play me with the same game, only difference is he goes to 9 instead of 8 he's got action. That seems to me that's a small adjustment, especially when you consider how easily he won.:o If not there will be others to step to the plate.

Whataya say Johnie? (Mars):confused:

Thanks,
Bill Incardona
 
I am hoping that the Action Room at DCC 2010 will be NON SMOKING

No matter what, it will be a great event, and I will be there playing $ 5 sets all day long :D
 
Damn, Billy, if you're making that kind of jing whacking people.... pay me 70% of what they pay you and you can clear the difference just making the call :) After all, you probably get the discount at Dennys by now, right? It's hard to make your gettaway in a Scooter Store scooter :)

It will be if TAR is in it. You have my word on that. It was supposed to be non smoking last year and we expected the hotel to enforce it. They didn't so this year we will. No one likes playing or sweating when you can't breath.
