8-Ball Super Tour Finale this weekend

Rather than regurgitate something that is already written you can see the full press release here: 8-Ball Pool Super Tour Live. We are pleased to be involved in this tour as it means we can provide high quality pool for our viewers including numerous World 8-Ball Champions like Phil Harrison.

On the press release page there is a poll asking who will win this event, it is a tough question as one of the attractive things about this series is that anyone on their day could win. So far from three tournaments we have had three different winners and it is likely we will see a fourth winner this weekend as well.

Throughout the weekend we will be making score updates and results available not on the blog this time but over at our good friends Cue Club International, here you can get involved in live discussion and also make a few more predictions about the event.

The live coverage is available to paid subscribers only from 4pm on Saturday 21st November, the action (that starts at 12pm) will be free until that time, so feel free to dip in and have a look.

I am predicting Simon Ward to win this one, if he plays!

A Nightmare Couple of Weeks

It has been a testing time over the last couple of weeks, the last two events we had scheduled had to be cancelled (event still happened we were not there) due to two problems with our vehicle.

This led to us purchasing a new car, nice, but financially not so!

It’s actually quite laughable in hindsight as en route to Bristol we lost the radiator, had that fixed and then on the way to Barnsley we made the end of our road before the exhaust fell off!

Oh, and when we broke down on the way to Bristol we didn’t have our breakdown cover or insurance details, couldn’t remember them between us and ended up having to fork out for RAC cover, live is good!

No such problems anymore though.

I am just sorry we did not make it to the events, sounds like we missed a couple of great tournaments.

There is a lot that goes on behind-the-scenes as with every business I for one am someone that just does not like letting people down, especially when we have made a commitment.
