The Valley 9 Ball didn’t go so hot for me. I was 1 and 1 in the main tournament and 1 and 1 in the single elimination sportsman’s division (I lost to a guy called Rex from Wyoming).
Saturday was a long day. My first match started at 9 a.m. I won that one, then lost, then won five more to make it to the redraw. In Valley, you have new life in the redraw. I also played two scotch matches, totaling NINE MATCHES that day. Unfortunately, I was pretty exhausted by our second scotch match. Neither Samm nor I were on top of our games and we lost our second match of the single elimination format. The first round of the scotch didn’t begin until 10:30 p.m. That was tough.
On Sunday, I lost my first match for the redraw 5-4, then won three more before getting eliminated from the tournament at 33rd-48th place. It paid $425.
The team event is starting this morning.
I hope everyone had a great Memorial Day weekend!
