Well I'm heading out for my first small tournament today. Just an APA prequalifier. My home team is having an 8 and 9 ball qualifier today. I'm going to try my hand at 8 ball. I'm gonna rattle a few pocket say some bad words and have a good time supporting my team and the Firehall. Wish me luck and hope the old Heubler holds up.

Stay thirsty , my friend .
Uh , I meant Good Luck . . . .

Dang, now I want a Dos Equis Amber but it's only 11:20 AM. I'll have to move my clock forward an hour so it's ok to drink the ones I have in the fridge. You can't drink before noon, you know!

Best of luck in your tourney.
 
Thanks guys,I'm back. 2 wins and I'm in. Got the second one cheap. 1 Inadvertant 8 and a scratch on the 8. Hated to win that way. And yes I rattled a bunch of pockets. Said my share of bad things. Ate a bunch of bar food. And had a good time.
Oh yea the Hubler came through with flying colours.

Mark-

Congratulations on the two lucky wins. Sounds like you were pretty lucky.

Now you owe in the 'lucky category'.

It might be time to hit the practice table-you may not have to pay back all that 'lucky' debt.

The pool gods always collect. At the most inconvenient time.

Take care-it sounds like you had a great time-that's what is most important.

Just kidding-on some of the above.
 
Yea I got lucky in my second match. I won the first one fair and square. Only 1 APA shot the whole day. For some reason I play for crap on our home table. Shoot Valley's elsewhere and shoot great (well, passingly good I'd say). I shoulda lost the last game of the second match. First one was up in the air. Lady I shot is a solid player. She just takes too many chances around the 8. Heck of a good 9 ball player though. All in all I had a good time. Made some jokes was razzed a bunch. Felt good leaving. Played reasonable. Hope to see some more tournaments later this year.

Yea I hope so. It's back to the weekly league grind. I'm 2-0 in 9 ball and 1-1 in 8ball. Gotta pick up my long table game some. Miss too many long cut shots. Still feelin' good about the experience. Hope to keep improving.
