The day started off with a jolt as Reyesan early favorite to win it all, according to the buzz outside the hallwas downed by fellow Hall of Famer but long-retired Ray Martin, 8-6. Reyes, perhaps a little jet-lagged, rallied to run over Robin Dodson 8-0, but then lost on the hill to Cory Deuel. Martin showed it wasnt a fluke by finishing a respectable 3-2. After the final round, Martin, Reyes and Buddy hall were tied with 3-2 records, but Reyes GLI of 4.00 sent him into the finals.

IPT Day Three Report
December 3rd, 2005IPT Day Two Results
December 2nd, 2005IPT Day Two ResultsThe sold-out crowds were treated to pool like theyve never seen it before at the IPT King of the Hill Invitational 8-Ball Shootout in Orlando. Thirty players started yesterday, and only 15 advanced. Those 15 have been reduced to just six. This is really exciting, said Rebecca Roberts, a longtime pool fan. Ive never seen anything like this, with all the cameras and the top notch arena. Theres never been this kind of money in pool. Its like a boxing prizefight. With $1 million at stake, the Hall of Famers will join the six players who made it through todays brutal competition to start the battle for the big money. Mika Immonen, Corey Deuel, Francisco Bustamante, Nick Van den Berg, Marlon Manalo and Johnny Archer advance to the next round.

IPT Day One
December 1st, 2005IPT Day OneDay one of the IPT King of the Hill tournament was a major success. Players and tour members were in awe at the magnitude of the production and the size of the set and tournament area. Most players polled admitted that they have never seen anything like this anywhere in their careers. The main arena is a very dramatic and dazzling set that features VIP seating that is as close to the table as possible! The main tournament room is filled with first class decorations and graphics that remind those at the event of the golden era of pocket billiards.Players showed up in shirts and ties and female players dressed accordingly. When IPT players show up to play their matches, they are clearly different looking than the typical spectator and this stand out as the professionals they are. Play kicked off at 10am with 30 players competing all day to try and make the 15 player cut for the second day of competition. In the afternoon, Johnny Damon (Boston Red Sox) stopped by the tournament to check out some matches and knock some balls around with Mike Sigel, the current King of the Hill.

Anna Wins in Alva
November 20th, 2005Anna Wins in AlvinThe last stop of 2005 for the Hunter Classics Amateur Women’s Tour was held at Big Daddy’s in Alvin, Texas and 44 ladies competed for the first place prize of $750 and a WPBA Qualifier. Vickie McKillop, one of the owner’s of Big Daddy’s, broke her ankle and wasn’t able to attend, but her husband Ed took care of the ladies while his wife took care of her ankle. She’ll need surgery soon and we all wish her luck in a speedy recovery.On Saturday, the members of the Hunter Classics Tour raised over $300 for Jackson Bacon, a bright 6 year old boy who was recently diagnosed with cancer. The money will go towards a fun day for Jackson and his parents to spend together – away from the hospital. To raise the money, a Breast Cancer Research Foundation Golf Club set and bag was donated by Owner Kathy Krabbenschmidt and Manager Tony Hinojosa of Fun City Golf Par 3 and Driving Range in Grand Prairie, Texas. The ladies surprised Jackson (who was able to make a visit with his proud parents, Jason and Nicole) with a large remote controlled robot he has been wanting for over a year. There wasn’t a dry eye in the house as Jackson ripped open the wrapping – to his delight was the gift he has been asking for for so long. He walked around with it and showed everyone all the cool moves the robot could make and why he liked it so much. We found out later his Dad, Jason, was going to shave his head that night, because Jackson’s hair is already falling out.
