Derby City Classic
catching naps while standing; snacking on nutrition-less junk, and jousting non-stop from one discipline to the next to a whole new depth, it’s a wonder some of these guys are alive.
Tony Chohan, winning from down 4-8 against Mika, must have been truly motivated by his stellar performance previously in his One-Pocket semis with Efren
Then, after his 3-hour battle in the Finals, Roland Garcia, understandably, ended him. The added points for his 11th place, 9-Ball finish, earned Tony runner-up as Master of the Table.
Fedor Gorst, at around 9 am on Sunday, had been awake competing, and waiting, competing and waiting, onand-off for 28 hours, at 9-2, ended Shane.
Both Cuetec-sponsored players were visibly physically spent. It seemed that both had made more accumulated errors than they had in the entire tournament; When have you seen SVB miss two simple shots…in the same rack!
FYI: Fedor’s route had doused Alex, twice. Skyler Woodward and Roland Garcia both were allowed one game… each.
Earlier, Chohan, Tyler Styer, and John Morra were also left in Fedor’s wake–pun intended.
Shane was undefeated all the way to the 13th round when Alex sent him buy-back. (Alex had just eliminated Joshua Filler in the 12th).
In the 11th, Shane had Skyler Woodward back at the buy-Back booth
Shane, in the 10th, had Hong Kong’s Robbie Capito capitulate. Beware: The 21-year-old Robbie won his first men’s national event when he was 12!
All in all, an incredible journey through the night and well past dawn.
As the cameras didn’t pause much, most of the above action is available at accu-stats.com until February 28th.
See it to believe it.
It’s time for a nap.

DCC’s Friday Night Ring Game: Culminating at $1,200 a ball, Shannon Murphy robbed them all banking $5,000. Billy fought gallantly to secure 2nd and $3000. Skyler Woodward claimed a distant 3rd. Shane Wolford began well. Justin Hall fell fast as did Jonathan Demet.
