Wellie B 2 - 3 Wellie A
Good times again at The Wellie last night as the two home teams play some close, see-saw games.
Game 1. Dave R played some excellent Billiards against Pete (the traitor) Brown. It ended up with Dave needing the red in the 200 to draw. After a couple of goes each, Pete downed the ball to wind it up. 0-1
Game 2. Nick had problems playing Brad. He was going into work early this morning so that he could finish and get up to London to see Billy Idol. Because of this he was driving and not drinking. A couple of beers/vodkas and he might have kept some of his scores and left Brad in a spot of bother. 0-2
Game 3. Roy was another suffering from lack of beer as he took on Dave. Giving 1600 away was just enough as The Gov found the going a little tough. He dragged back a grand or so but it just wasn't his night. 0-3
Game 4. I had the break against H. With the way I seem to be playing of late, the 2070 - 0 handicap seemed a bit of a mountain to climb. I started with about 450 and kept that for at least 4 goes before I played for a perfectly safe 3 cushion 200 and took out my peg (it's got my name on it so it's mine). H scored a few and looked as if he was going to make it impossible for me, when, out of the blue I got the break back. I touched up on 3500ish and avoided my peg like the plague for the rest of the time. 1-3
Game 5. I didn't see the start of this game but took over the scoring with Gary and Izzy about level. It stayed that way throughout until both needed the last in the 100 to win. Izzy had the problem of only knowing the 200 shot, so after 3/4 goes each, Gary showed her were it was it win. 2-3
As usual, penty of good banter, pizza and beer.
Well done Wellie A
