Worth the trip
My first trip here also and I can tell you it's worth every penny . I have been to other major tourneys when the pros are playing for big titles but they have always kind of been segregated from their fans but here they are right here in your face ,,,Bring an autograph book or plenty of paper and a permanent marker
Grady Matthews has been in and out between matches and has converted his
training films to DVD , His wife Randi says due to the technology at the time the graphics are not that great BUT his lessons are crystal clear to the watchful student ,price $30.00
Williebetmore and OHB are here but WBM is not spending the night there has been nonstop pool action in the AZB /One Pocket room with Banks being the most played today ,sprinkled with some 8 & 9 ball and 1p ! I have not seen any 14.1 yet but I can assure you it will be played . We have posted a signup/waiting for the table list but not used it quite yet but probably will B4
the night is over, The Room is spacious with an open table ,we do have an overflow room next door but sadly it is a pay table but that one was required
by the hotel the scuttlebutt says , Greg Sullivan is really pumped up about us having our room and stands behind us and has nothing but best wishes that we make this work he has done everything we could ask for and couldn't be a better host ,From what I can see so far the forecast looks very promising

AZ/OP room is great!
I just met williebetmore and he already has the posters up. They really look nice. Table & lighting is excellent. Showed the room to Buddy & he says he might use is to do some practicing if it is available. The room is nice, cool & quiet. Very good place to relax & BS
Later, OHB

Classy Guy !
So far I have been more or less thrust into service and enjoying every minute of it in the AZ room ,Believe it or not I kind of shared dinner with Stefano Pelinga he was sitting alone at the table across from me in the buffet room. I asked him if he was Stefano and he said yes, I then congratulated him on his recent win at the 2005 trick shot championship and asked him if I was bothering him to which he quickly said no and paid his check and what happened next was great ... He came back to my table and we chatted for a good 8 or 9 minutes about Italy ,I told him of my being ported in Laspezia,Taranto and Genoa ,He said he lives in Roma and we actually chatted about pools bad rap and other stuff he asked me about my game lol I told him where I stood as of now and he tossed me some encouragement which I felt to be sincere ..All in all I found him to be quite a nice guy and a warm individual about the sport
I tossed him an invite to the AZ room and he accepted , He said he would be dropping in
Your on the scene sucking up to the stars guy .....
Ratchet --- Starstruck and getting a buzz off of it lolol

You can take that to the bank
I can assure you everthing that Stefano says is genuine, he is no coward of the truth. He might sometimes even go too far with the truth and this is a very good quality in a person. He is a great friend to pool and even most of his trick shot shooting peers as well. So you can feel at ease when he tells you something have no doubt in him being sincere Ratchet.
