Williebetmore said:Satman,
So let me get this right; if I just hit 3 extra balls this winter I can win next year? Damn, I only hit 2 extra balls last winter, I just knew I should have done more. Congratulations!!
P.S. - you should tell us what happened at DCC.

satman said:Thank you very much, I did have a pretty good week. I wish my team would have done a little better. I have been able to hit a few extra balls this winter and have been extra inspired after my beating at DCC in Jan.
And yes it is true I will be inducted into the Valley league hall of fame this year in Las Vegas. I'm extremely excited about that.
Thanks again, Sam.
PS who are you eieio?

Eieio59 said:Uh... duh.... only your second biggest fan!
satman said:That's right, 3 extra balls, every 5 minutes for 3-6 hours a day, 5-7 days a week, all winter long, plus excruciating beatings by some of the worlds best players. But remember to have fun and it's all worth it in the end.
If you've never played at Derby city, It's a fabulous tournament. Sam
satman said:Willie, I know you don't care much for bar tables but, The Valley state championships are at the Marriot Hotel on 21st street in Indianapolis April 14-18. Lots of good pool at this event. Sam
Sam,satman said:Willie, Last year at DCC I got a chance to get started and finished in the final 36 of the bank division. This was the only large scale bank tournament I had played so I was pretty happy. This year I started off with Dave Matlock who came to the table like he was late for something. Dave played an incredible match. He broke and scratched, I bank 2 and miss, He banks 6 and out. He breaks runs 2 and misses, I bank 2, he runs out. He breaks and runs 3, I bank 3, He runs out. About 6 minutes total for my first match. Painful.
My next match was close it came down to the last ball. I lost.
One pocket; Either my first or second match I played Jose Parica and I had a chance to win the third game but let it get away on a mental error.
One of my one pocket matches I was down 2 games to 0, 6 balls to 2, and manage to come back to win the set. My opponent was a little upset. What can I say, I don't ever give up til it's over.
Next match I lose 3-2, it was close.
9-ball, I draw Judex James, Who is a fine 9-ball player and I just couldn't get anything going and he pummeled me 7-1. I decided not to buy back in and came back to Indiana to play in Ft. Wayne.
That was it in a nutshell. All those players there and I draw bad all week.

Looks like Muncie is trying to take over. Congrats Sam on all your accomplishments. I got to see you shoot some at the BCA tourney, not as much as I would have liked to, but you were really stroken! Eieio--I know you're good at making shirts but playing pool too? Just kidding. It's nice to see you two on this site.
Eieio59 said:Looks like Willie.... ought to move to Muncie! Come on up, the water's fine..... (gotta watch for the minnows though... they been growin up!)
Just kidding. Lots of pool playing in this little town.
