just got back to my room...
started out against john smitdt played bad in middle of the game but won 7-5
played luat next 5-4 up pretty good play then thrown last 3 racks away and missed 8ball...just wasnt feeling great on the cue today
but battled back drew luat again this time beat him 7-5
so put me in last 8 everyone on one loss so become straight k/0
draw corteza felt i was playing ok but wasnt really get much run and no shot after breaks
6-5 down i got ball in hand with 4 hangers probably missed easiest run out of my life to make it 6-6 ..my break ..as they say in states i dogged it big time..would have had adam smith in semi final which would have good ..other semi is ralf v svb
hopefully pick myself up for straight pool final later tonight
when i reflect i suppose ill be pleased with my play over the week..round 11-12 in 9ball beating so many good players races to 7 is not too bad!!
finished 5th 9ball
17th in banks
around 30th in one pocket
2nd in one pocket challnge with 50 ball run
and still got straight pool final to come!
thanks for support

Well done Daz on a tournament well played. What's the rules about the "One Pocket Challenge"? Also, anyone know who won the TAR match between Niels Fiejen and a guy called, I believe, Scooter. It was a race to 21 with Scooter getting the 8 and 9 and there was something like $3400 in the middle.
