Thanks Kev, and also to Ric for his prompt input of the rules, sounds good to me but maybe that is because 3k sounds a long way to go at the moment!!!!!

CKRBL 1 Laughing Fish 4
Ted Stringer 710 - 4,460* Bill Kerr Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure started the evening off, with Bill finding more holes and Ted more pegs leading to an inevitable victory for Bill. ;)
Peter Edwards 2,300* - 2,400 Ron Sheridan A very tactical game from Pete after he came off early... with a strange touch-up. :-/ Ron played some superb shots to get the balls back a run in a 1.5k break, Pete kept chasing and it turned into a last ball game with Ron getting the 100 hole first time. 8-)
Jenny Edwards 1,330 - 4,520* Dave Ingram I was off on about 700 with the red ball drifting in, Jenny knocked in a good 1k break to take the lead, I replied with a 3k maximum leaving Jenny near the 50 hole, she was up to nearly 2k when she left one next to the 10 hole and lost her score, game over. ;)
Rob Hall 3,240* - 1,040 Colleen Park A 2.7k opener from Rob, Colleen outscored him for the rest of the game but unable to get the break back with the balls behind the 10 hole and up the middle. :'(
Dave Page 1,660 - 1,780* Tony Jenner Tony off early and the balls stayed at the back of the table for the rest of the game, no surprise that it went to the last ball which Tony sank in the 100 hole. ;)
3k Maximum Breaks - Dave Ingram 1
Some close matches on a table where the balls seemed to like to gravitate to behind the 10 hole and were then almost impossible to hit off either cushion. ::)
A good result for the visitors.... 8-)

Hay SandyH there even recording 3k breaks in LEWES now, what is the world comming to? ;D Hi Lewes BB Fans.... even those (very few) that support Crystal Palace.... :-X Since the Lewes League have decided to impose a 3k maximum break allowance in the League Cup this year, I thought it might be an idea to record the number of times this was achieved during the competition to give us some idea as to how effective having the maximum break allowance is.... we can then decide whether this is effective and can be used again in future League Cup competitions. ;) Obviously, if none of your players achieved this magnificent milestone last night Colin then there is no need for you to record anything..... :P ;D ;D

Cock Inn 3 2 Bridge
Huw 1940 1180 Sandra Ben 1670 1550 Alan Steve 1890 1830 Marcus Bob 470 2580 Kev H Lex 1720 1810 Jean
As you can see from the scores the 3K maximum break didnt really affect anyone. Actually 3K maximum score wouldnt have either lol.

Hi Warrior, recommend you dont hold your breath while awaiting a 3k from Eastbourne ;D Hi Colin, well I have to tell you that it was a wonderful feeling being able to touch-up on the MAXIMUM break.... safe in the knowledge that the HIGH BREAK TROPHY for this competition is already mine.... 8-) ;D ;D ;D Now, of course all I have to do is convince the Committee that there should be a high break award for this Competition.... hmmmm, any ideas on that subject anybody.... ::) :'( ;D

Hi Lewes BB Fans
Like this Comp format,might be worth a change to double break next year, Eastbourne runs an off the spot triples and have found that once the opener gets a break he/she plays a ball between the 100 and 200 which definately leaves a sour taste in the mouth of the poor recipiant.

I'm afraid that I am with Gandalf on that subject Bobhall....

I think its a bvit of a swizz when the rules state 3k break you should be able to stay there until you reach the milestone no matter what, stand the pegs up and carry on!!! In all seriousness think 3k limit good idea but think you should lose the score if you pass the milestone without touching up. This would not take away beng sporrting as one can always leave the balls playable but safe. Look forward to the rest of this part of the season.
