<p dir="ltr">I played Bob in a ten to one. He sank one of each on the break, then sank one of each on the following shot but scratched, giving me ball in hand with an open table but only five of each left. Stripes were arranged better, so I took those. We traded shots a couple of times, but since his balls were clustered, he was playing defense. I got to the 8 while he had three left and sank it. </p>
<p dir="ltr">As for Brian, he faced Red in a 4-4. Red was shooting well, winning the first three easily. He was on his way to winning the fourth, but Bob have him a coach when he had ball in hand and only two left. This was a coach didn't want. He tried what Bob suggested and missed. From this point forward the match was Brian's. Every time Red wasn't shooting he was complaining to me about the coach. It was totally in his head, and he kept missing shots while Brian keep getting more accurate. Brian took the next four. </p>

We played Bob Daun's team, formerly known as Mr mR, now know as "Nice<br>
Shot, 6 Bucks" (don't ask me...). I missed all the matches, so I'll<br>
leave it to everyone to summarize his match. I'll just say that we<br>
won 4, lost 1. :)<br>
<br>
In my match, I played Jim in a 3:7. Jim was a little off, and I was a<br>
little on. I made some nice cuts but lost the 1st game, made some<br>
more nice cuts to take the 2nd and 3rd games, had mixed results with<br>
the bank and lost the 4th game, and finally went back to the cuts to<br>
win the 5th game and the match, 3:2.<br>
<br>
We started the night in sole possession of 6th place, 4 games out of<br>
5th. So unless the 5th place team got swept, we will have kept our<br>
6th place finish.<br>
