Noteworthy events from 2023 Summer Week 08

Outstanding outing(s):

  1. Julian F, Esteban Q, and Alejandro T each scored a perfect 80.  For Alejandro, it was his first ever in our league.
  2. Sam B shot a 76 – his highest score this season.
  3. Tim B and Fermin A each had 75.

RAFFLE Status:

    1. Sal H had his first selection since Week 13 of the 2022 Autumn season. He broke dry on Table 06.
    2. Ed S sank the 1-ball in the north side of Table 11 on the break. The 2-ball was looking juicy but the 3 rolled between it and the SE corner.
      • The 8-ball was hanging in the SW corner tempting Ed to consider a bank, but he went for the 2-3 combo and made it with authority.
      • The 2-ball rolled twice as far down-table than the cue-ball for a decent setup to the NW corner, but Ed elected to cash out for 2/9ths of the available pot.
    3. The remaining pot rolls onward to Week 09.

OTHER:

    1. In their opening game of the night, Kevin C and Joe L leveraged table position and patience for what seemed like a 50 inning game on Table 02.  Joe won it.
    2. Sharp Shooter’s had only one player who did not finish with a 49.
    3. The two Tom B subs each played.  Their scores added up to 99 points.
    4. This season’s 2nd-half envelopes will be available next week for the remaining weekly fee collections.
    5. Reminder from the venue: There will be a tournament held on the 9-foot tables this coming Tuesday, Sept 5th, 2023 beginning at 7:30pm.  Therefore, it’ll be wise to arrive earlier than that to better ensure inclusion.
