9-Ball Comp : 08 February 2010 : a strong field of ten players made two sections of five. Nick Pera and Marvin qualified in Section 1 with Nick unbeaten. Section 2 saw Molrudee and Matt qualify, with Matt unbeaten. In the semi’s, Nick played Molrudee with Molrudee an upset victor, and Marvin defeated Matt 3/0 in the other semi. Marvin continued on with some fine form.
9-Ball Comp : 01 February 2010 : a strong field of twelve players arrived for Monday’s 9-Ball. We ran two sections with two qualifiers from each, with Glen Coutts, Matt Edwards and Molrudee in one section it was always going to be tough to qualify. Glen and Matt qualified from Section 1 and Jamie and Ning from Setion 2. Matt beat Ning 3/1 and Glen won over Jamie 3/2. The Final (race to 3) was a quick affair with Glen playing his best pool of the night, and winning 3/0.
The 2010 9-ball comp commenced on Monday 18 January. A field of ten played section play with two qualifiers from each section. Molrudee and Marvin successful from Section 1 and Glen Coutts and Cliff from Section 2. In the Semi-finals, Molrudee beat Cliff 3/1 and in a close match Marvin beat Glen 3/2. In the Final Molrudee again proved too strong, defeating Marvin 3/0.
Week 5 : for the final Monday competition for this year we played section play again. The first semi-final was between Marvin and Richard with Richard winnin gout 3/1 and the other semi-final, Molrudee defeating Frank. Molrudee again played great pool to defeat Richard 3/1 to take out the Final. Molrudee retained her form from the recent APA Regional 8-Ball Pairs event, when partnered with her husband, defeated Kevin Sun and Kevin Zhang to reach the final, just going down to Jordan Davey and Jimmy Henry, 5/4. The next Monday competition will be 18 January 2010.
Week 4 : the numbers were a bit lower this Monday with 9 players, so we decided to use a section/round robin format with a race to three frames. Section 1 saw Kevin Zhang and Kevin Sun qualify and Section 2 qualifiers were Marvin and Molrudee. Molrudee defeated Kevin Sun, and Kevin Zhang won over Marvin. The Final (race to 5 frames) was won by Kevin Zhang with Molrudee again proving she is a formidable opponent.
Week 3 : a field of 12 took part. The winner from the last two weeks (Tim) drew Kevin Sun in the first round. In a very tight match Tim prevailed. There was a round two upset with Cliff defeating Tim. Marvin beat Cliff in one Semi-final and Molrudee, carrying on with her great form from the Auckland B-Grade comp, defeated Jacky in the other Semi-final. Molrudee defeated Marvin 5/3 to take the major share of the stake money. Please note that the last Monday of competition for this year is 14 Decemer and will recommence on 18 January 2010.
Week 2 of the Monday night 9-Ball knockout had a field of 13. It was decided to play Race to 5 frames for the evenings competition. It was a good cross-section of players with two women players in the draw. Week 1′s winner, Tim, had a tough first up match against Marvin which went to the wire 5/4. In the Semis Molrudee, one of the female players put up a good game before going down to Tim and in the other, David was down 4/1 against Jacky before taking the match 5/4. The Final was a repeat of last Monday with Tim playing flawless 9-Ball, being the winner.
