Round 1 play started at 3:30 and updates will follow.
 
Just wanted to give kudos to Marge and Shannon. They are the nicest people you will ever meet and they run a great tournament... I would recommend giving it a shot to anyone that has a chance to play in one.

King Street Billiards in Fayetteville NC is a really nice pool room too, 5 brand new diamonds and 10 other Gold Crowns with plenty of room between tables. They've got a great kitchen too... If you're ever in the area you should check it out.

Feel free to wish me luck against Larry Nevel tomorrow too :D
I'm going to have to run a lot of racks to win that match...
