Play-offs!!!

So its that time of year again its time for the Active pool play-offs see link http://www.blogger.com/www.aactivecoin.com . My goal for this season (so what if I set it half way through the season) was to at least be %50 percent for weighted average, wins to loses that sot of thing and well here's the numbers the weighted average -0.04 so just a bit of the mark then wins to games played 49/112 so also not quite. Looking back on the season it could have been better team wise it was a good season play wise "inconsistent" would be the word, that and my break it's now fairly good nice ball spread good cue ball control but zilch going down WTF and then the odd time i screw it up I'll get a ball or 2 down but nowhere to go from so need to work on that.

Now on to play-off fever the singles tournament stats Mon 25 @ 6pm woo woo and Cougars N' Cubs first game is 6:15 pm vs Polyorchid. twitter on the right side of the page will be the place to get all the update well that's all for now

In best Camera Work the Oscar Goes To...

Not this blogger. So a while back I did some video work 1) was the stuff in my pool case and 2) a walk though of the Broken spoke. So video 1) got scraped because a week or so after I got a new case got rid of some stuff etc so i need to shoot that again. Video 2) let me tell you it was bad I mean really bad, nay REALLY REALLY REALLY BAD. there was random noise in the back round, the colour was off, it was shaky lets just say I'm glad I have a digital video camera because if not it would of been an epic waste of film. This being said I'm going to buy a tripod and try it all again so I'll keep you posted

The Twitter

Just added a "twitter" widget to ye old blog ooohh fancy. Tonight I continue my quest to break even with the win to lose ratio in pool. Last night played the "first" night for bonus ball league it was interesting have to say not a fan or the format, 3 player teams 3 rounds, 2 rounds of scotch doubles then 1 round of singles... not a fan of scotch doubles meh also coaching is allowed hmm well i post more as the season goes on. well I'm off to get ready for regular league tonight finally a home game at the spoke

So this past Sunday (feb. 6) we ran the Broken Spoke 9-ball tourament again, and your winners are

1. Dereck


2. Andy S.


3. Dave H.

Ran fairly well, a bunch of new people came out and word seems to be spreading. A shout out to Tom for finding the Tournament white board so we don't have to draw out a new one every week. We have been working with the handicap to make sure its as fair as possible so if your a seasoned vet of the pool world or just starting out on your pool journey for $10 come on down and spend an afternoon shooting some pool.

As I've mentioned before starting feb. 23 at McPhillips Street Sation Casino Is the 1st. amatur Bonus Ball tournament so you'll find me there this sat practicing and getting ready for that. If you happen to be in the Winnipeg area and want to get the inside scoop on this new game to hit the green felt hit up their web site http://www.playbonusball.com/ and shoot them off an email they'll be more than happy to show you how the game is played.

Well I'm off to go check the mail with any luck I've got 2 shirts waiting for me

peace out
