Purdman and I are going to meet up at First Break in Sterling on Saturday, probably around noon, for a little friendly competition on the billiards table, and probably a few beers, and I can only assume a bit of light conversation. Within driving distance? Got some free time on Saturday? Come play!

Gamblers welcome, but don't start woofing at me for action; you'll find me pretty unwilling to put many of my hard-earned dollars on the line.

Axejunkie, Black-Balled, MikeM, Cory in DC, possibly Flex, I'm looking your direction(s).

Andrew,

Am out of town, and sure wish I could be there with you all!

Count me as a maybe at this point. I do believe First Break has some sort of Saturday tournament, not sure if you guys knew that. I don't know how many tables it consumes.

I think it is a one-pocket tournament, if they are still having it, that is supposed to begin at 12:00 noon. Y'all should play in the one-hole event! It's fun!

Do you think we'll have a hard time getting a table or two (if others come by)? I guess I could always try playing in the tournament, but getting knocked out of it in the first round would start my pool-playing session on sort of a bad note (I don't play the one-pocket so good).

The time we were there and they had the one-pocket tournament, they allowed patrons to play on the back tables. They used the front five or six tables for the one-pocket tournament.

Andrew..too bad your not in Miami again this weekend. The Seminole $25k added 10 ball event is starting tommorrow down here.

I just talked to Mo, the manager. He knows there is a Saturday tournament but isn't sure what kind. There is a tournament there every Saturday morning I think. 8 ball on the winners side and 9 ball on the losers. If there isn't room we can move on.

PS: Or win the toutnament!!!!:D

I wish I were. I doubt I'd have any better luck in it than the last tournament I played down there (since I'm a B player on my best day), but this time I bet I could prove I at least have the ability to make a ball :o Give Tony Ruberto the 7 for me.

One more bump, just in case there's anybody who didn't see it. Also, I forgot to put 8-ball Rat on my list of AZers in the area I'm calling out, so I thought I'd make sure he didn't feel left out.
