Dear Gentle Readers,
Headline # 1: Woo Woo!
On Efren’s victory:
Danny D., “That’s why they call him the Magician.”
Headline # 2: Danny Is Human.
Scott, “This doesn’t look like the Danny Smith of yesterday. Sometimes he feels like he just has to go for a shot.”
Scott, “If anybody knows about getting upset, it’s me. I use it as motivation. Danny gives up.”
Scott (on Danny’s game-winning 2-rail bank against Justin), “I’m an aggressive player and I don’t shoot that shot.”
Scott, “Danny got 3 balls. Yesterday he would have gotten 33.”
Commentator’s comments:
Billy, “Alex and Scott REALLY want to beat each other.”
Danny, “This is a big rivalry. Even though they’re laughing, they really want to beat each other.”
Danny, “A lot of people don’t make $1,000 a day.”
Danny, “This is why one-pocket is so great. Something new comes up every day.”
Danny, “Alex is bouncing up and down. His motor’s running.”
Danny, “Wrong again, DiLiberto.”
Scott, “Winning the lag in a race to 3 makes you a 65 - 35 favorite.” (Interesting stats: http://forums.azbilliards.com/showthread.php?t=401187)
Scott, “He missed by a city block!”
Billy, “Efren’s on tilt.”
Danny, “He made it! He made it! He made it close.”
Billy, “Efren was one of the best balkline players in the world.”
Billy, (on an Efren shot), “Absolutely brilliant.”
Billy, “A Game of Controlled Aggression is by far the best book ever written on one-pocket.”
Billy, “I love shots that are natural.”
Danny, “If I had to pick a player to win right now, it would be Smith. Wait a minute.”
Some musings …
Efren may have stumbled and limped into the finals, but my sweet baboo still won it all.
How far was the commentator’s booth from the table?
Scott was the only player / commentator.
Kenny spots balls with the numbers up.
I was pleased to see all those player’s vests. Classy.
SVB practiced the break, then one or two follow-up shots. Repeat.
I wish there were a strong woman one-pocket player. She would add some visual energy to the room.
One fan donated $500 for the player who finished last. Sweet.
Danny was the only player to make a ball on the break. Efren didn’t break all that well throughout the tournament.
Billy laughs a lot. I bet that reflects his true character.
Codswallop is my life,
Sunny
P.S. File this under Absolutely Nobody Cares Except Me. A certain fella who ‘just wasn’t ready to get married’ changed his mind. Good news, yes? Well, he also ‘just isn’t ready to have children.’ Sigh.
