Hope we see Bosco, Tigerair. Today is for sure to be one fine Sunday. With the final four in the winners' brackets consisting of Efren, Johnny, Hatch, and Bustie, there will surely be a good show to be had by all.

Mike Massey is going to do another trick shot exhibition today for the public. He is so charismatic, on and off the table. The little kids love him. It's a wonder he doesn't have writer's cramp as many autographs as he has signed this weekend. Even the pool players were in awe of the shots Mike Massey does in person. Some of these shots have never been seen before on TV because the TV medium can't capture the magic of it all. Mike is truly a great ambassador for pool.

How far is Rochester from here, Tigerair? It would be great to see you again.

Coverage

Being a former CNY'er, being able to follow the tourny online is fantastic. I know alot of the locals that played and it is nice to see who they matched up with. The reports are great and the pictures are the usual Hoppe standard of greatness. Thanks alot and looking forward to seeing everybody at the GCO in November.

The reports are great and the pictures are the usual Hoppe standard of greatness.

Wow, those pictures are incredible! The 2 pics with the tables and arena in the background are beautiful. Great job Dianna, and as usual, JAM with her detailed insight of the tournament matches and the action at the crap tables, just perfect! Great job ladies. Peace, John.
