Once again we had a GREAT time at the Dec 9 $30 9ball tournament put on by Cue & A Billiard Promotions and Clicks Waco. 48 players made their way to Waco to compete for this months event.

Top picks for this months tournament were returning 2 time Champion Charles Holan of Houston, Returning runner up Jay Calhoun of Austin, Tony Barrington from Tyler, locals Carl Ray and Garry “thrill” Hill.

Finishing 7-8 were straight shooting Louie Pacheco from Ft Worth and Charles Holan of Houston. Both played very well! Good job guys!

Coming in 5-6th was “young gun” Adam Austin, who’s game is really maturing fast, and Jimmy Davis who always plays very well. Way to go to these two local guys.

The stars lined up “just right” and 4th place went to yours truly, Ray Hansen. I guess it’s true that if you wait long enough the sun will shine almost anywhere.:p :D

Our third place finisher was Daniel Herring from Ft Worth. Daniel played very well. I believe we’ll be seeing him with the title real soon!

David Parker, “young gun” from League City area came in hot after playing almost all night! David defeated James Callahan of Mckinney 7-2, Bobby Comgys from the DFW area 7-4, Louie Pacheco of Ft Worth 7-2, Charles Holan of Houston 7-5,and local “young gun” Adam Austin 7-6 for a shot at the “hot seat”.

Jon Rollins of the Dallas area started out the day with a bye, then defeated your truly 7-5, Lawrence Garza from Dallas 7-6, Tony Barrington from Tyler 7-4,and Jimmy Davis from Waco 7-2 for a spot in the “hot seat” match. Rollins torched the “hot seat” match as he won it 7-0! David was not discouraged though as he defeated Daniel Herring 5-2 for another shot at Jon in the race to 9 Final. Jon proved to be too much fire for David to put out, as he would close it out 9-3! Jon Rollins would be our new Champion.

Special thanks to Jim Ashby, manager of Clicks Waco, for hosting this event. Thanks to Lewis Jones of PKL Promotions and the Fast Eddies 9Ball Tour for their support. Lewis & Paul do a great job with their events and are an inspiration to me. Tim Byrum of Lonestar Billiards will no longer be providing cue repair and sales as it became too much strain on his schedule.I would like to thank Tim for several months of support and some great work.It will done by James Hanshew of Hanshew Custom Cues beginning at the January tournament.

1st – 560/700
2nd – 285/350
3rd – 225/165
4th – 110/130
5-6th – 60

You and Ray Jr. always run a great tournament and we had a great time despite disappointing finishes.

If the stars line up right I will be there in January, if not, February.

Actually I don't believe in that stuff, I was being facetious. We all have days were things just seem to work out and some days where they don't.

Your a great competitor who always brings some "class" to our event. I hope you can make it in January.

Sincerely

Ray

Ray, I really believe you are doing a good thing here and will continue to support your event in the same fashion next year. We all need to support each other and the games growth.

Nice work,

I was actually referring to the fact that I am going to be out of the area for the holidays and only if the stars align would I be back in time to compete in the January event (such as you move it to the 14th).

Nobody who saw you play would say anything about luck or rolls on your part. When I left you were playing fantastic and I had an idea you might be able to snap off the whole thing.

And there is nothing harder in this game than to compete in and run a tournament at the same time. My hat is definitely off to you.

Ray Jr keeps things moving along while the old man is shaking the heavens and earth with stellar play.

How's that for hyperbole?
