Summer time

Summer is here once again.

Team was 7/8 at ISPA -- Not very good finishes for me. Didn't play well in singles - what-so-ever. VNEA was a crap shoot, made some great games during team play to help us into a fairly decent finish Sunday morning.

Played Theo Sunday night (Mem. Weekend) and won two sets. Race to 4; 8 ball -- I got all the breaks. We went hill-hill first set and back/jacked it and I won the second set. 4-2. It was 2-2 i believe when he rolled the 8 ball after pocketing a stripe and it fell in the side. 3-2 me. It was crazy because the window to get to the side pocket was NARROW and an off angle. Luck, Karma, Destiny -- Freaky any way you call it.

Played a lot of 1 pocket with Ray that night as well. Even is probably no longer good. He banks too well and the second half of the game is usually his. 10-6 went my way 4 x in a row, so probably 9-7 in the future -- Maybe just 9-7 on my breaks first.

Looking forward to some summer league to get me playing again regularly and making the weekly tournaments when I can. traveling this summer probably doesn't involve a pool excursion as well. Bummer.

If you need a good snooker table, I know of a place in the NW corner of Nebraska. LOL

Once again, hoping summer pool brings winter champions.
