ESPN Classic on now

Watch the power that Tony had with the break - making 2-3 balls and able to run out from anywhere.

I sure do miss that guy.

Tony was killed in a terrible accident involving a train. Do a search and you can learn more about it.

Tony Ellin. He had a tremendosely powerful break. The man was gold on the table.

I drew him in the opening round of one of the Bicycle Club Tournaments back around '94. I was hanging out at the bar drinking with Tony Banks and some other guys that used to hang out at Bob's Billiards back then, anyway I ended up getting a pretty drunk before the match and I decided not to even show up for it since it was a during the prime session and I didn't want to make a fool of myself. I now regret missing the oppurtunity to play that guy. He seemed like a real nice guy as well.
