Hi All,

Not BAD BLOOD, but both ladies are very competitive and hate to lose. It should be a good one. Hope they get a good turnout!

Thanks,

Dave

LIVE FROM DENVER
 
I really admire The Viper, the way she gives back to charities through pool.

And Vivian is so cool. She's a pistol for sure, always full of personality.

This looks like a great event: two lady pros giving it their all. Love it! :)
 
I like it when Vivian turns her finger around real fast like a tornado after she wins a game. Cute schtick. :thumbup:
 
David Peat is getting so much press these days, my brain read the Thread title as The "Viffer" vs The Texas Tornado. I thought, "Wow, that's different, Vivian vs Viffer.".

Duh...
 
If I lived in Denver, I'd sure be there...sounds like fun! Just passed the info on to a Denver friend...he doesn't play, but I suggested that he & his lady expand their horizons a bit.

Melissa is good people. She asked me to play with her to get her ready for a tournament and it was a very enjoyable experiance.
she does a lot of things to promote pool here in Denver.
And she is not a prima dona .One night I played in a small round robin tournament with only 9 players and she gave her time to run it.

Yes, that is what it looks like. I am just helping spread the word. For more information I guess you could contact Melissa. Sorry, that's all I know. Added: I confirmed this w/Melissa, yes it is a race to 15. Should be fun.
