Just wondering what those of you who watched the match and know of Justin B thought. Ive never seen anyone at 19 and thats even SVB and the other top notch pros today hold themseves together in big action like that, exept Keith Mcready, J Bowman, J cone and a few others that come to mind. I mean at 19 the kid has been traveling on the west coast playing in some of the toughest action halls out there and playing for big cash. I know there is a ton of young talent out there but how much young tallent also has the hustle in them to grind it out for the cash. Just wondering what AZer's think of his performance:D
 
Justin has been tearing up the field around his area in the Midwest for quite a while. Remember when he won the High Pockets tournament in Memphis, back to back in April, 2005 and Sept. 2005 when he was only 17..:eek:

Look at the list of opponents he had to go through and the list that entered the event to win this April.

Buddy Hall, Dave Matlock, Reid Pierce, James Walden, James Baraks, Scotty Townsend, Chris Bartrum, and Brandon Ashcroft were some of the top players that entered. 17 year old sensation-Justin Bergman went undefeated in the main event. Justin topped Todd Miller 11-4, Reid Pierce 11-6, Younger Chapman 11-6, Robert Newkirk 11-8, Josh Diegler 11-6, Blake Todd 11-10, and James Walden 11-8.

Here are the links to just two of the events he dominated.
