The Holan “tornado” was back in Waco to defend his title from July and defend it he did!
Top picks for the August event were Charlie Bennett from Killeen, Carl Pfenninger owner of Shooters Billiards, Carl Ray from Waco and Charles Holan from Houston.
5-6th spots went to locals Rody Andres, our resident Filipino straight shooter, and young gun Chad Owen.
4th place went to Charlie Rickard who lost his first match and then fought back in one loss side.
3rd place went to another local Benny Scott who’s unique style is very entertaining but keeps him from being a top pick. He does things all wrong but puts it together somehow.
All of the previous was the “calm before the storm”, The Houston “tornado” Charles Holan, that is. Charles started out taking down George Dickey from Dallas 7-5, top pick Carl Pfenninger 7-6, local golf (on the snooker table) sensation Jimmy Davis 7-3, Then our local Filipino superstar Rody Andres 7-5, Charles took the HOT seat from Carl Ray 7-6. Carl Ray fought back in the one loss side defeating Benny Scott decisively 5-2 for another shot at Charles. This time is was race to 9. The match proved to be an exciting one, going back and forth. At one point Carl Ray starting feeling a win but Charles had other plans stringing together 4 racks in a row (not easy in alternating break format). The match was tied up at 7 each when Charles kicked it up a notch and closed out the match for the win.
This was a very exciting tournament! We would like to Congratulate Charles for repeating a win in Waco.In addition to 1st place cash Charles also has his entry paid into the Fast Eddies 9 Ball tournament in Houston thanks to Lewis with PKL promotions and Fast Eddies 9 ball Tour. Thanks to Summer Palace for having a great buffet and allowing us to have our player meeting there. Special thanks to Jim Ashby manager of Clicks Waco for running a great store. Next months event will be the second Saturday Due to the Texas Open on Labor Day weekend. Hope to see you all there.
