Ms. Sweety
visited Jeremy “The Cat” Morris in Game 1 but wasn’t a good luck charm
because it didn’t help him win! She
waited until Game 4 to move and visit “Lethal” Lisa Duff and helped Lisa
secure the victory. About 4 seconds
later, Dave Braach (Visitor) declared 24 and Lisa had to pass Ms.
Sweety. She didn’t help Dave win his
game either! Last but not least, Ms.
Sweety made her way to see Jim “Teacher” Duff in Game 8 and helped him
beat his opponent. Jim walked away with
$20 for his efforts and skill cards.
EVENT HAPPENINGS
First was Pat “Driller” Jungmann who
turned in a 15 Gm Pt, 7 W, +117 Sprd Pts card tonight. Pat has been on a role
this month, he has received 43 points so far in April in the club points
race! Pat was on a roll tonight, he won
6 straight to start the evening including a Game 3 skunk over John “Saweet”
Hensley. His first blemish came against
Rex Paddock (Visitor) in Game 7. He
followed that game up with a win but then lost the last game of the night to Zeke
“Da Zappa” Blocklinger by 2 points!
None the less, Pat edged out John “Rotten” Reed by 11 spread
points to waltz away with a smile and $65 at the end of the night. Good job Pat!
Second was John “Rotten”
Reed who turned in a 15 Gm Pt, 7 W, +106 Sprd Pts card. John too has
been on a role in the last 6 weeks or so.
In order to keep ahead of Pat, John has also been racking up the points…..53
since mid-March. John also won 6
straight to start the night including a Game 6 skunk over Dave Braach
(Visitor). John first loss came at the
hand of “Big” Willie Evans (Visitor) in Game 7. Pat and John played each other in Game 8…both
had 6 wins and 1 loss. Someone had to
come away with the victory and it happened to be Pat. John turned things around with a last game win over John “Saweet”
Hensley but was edged out by 11 spread points and had to settle for 2nd. Good job John!
Third
was “Big” Willie Evans who turned in a 14 Gm Pt, 7 W, +74 Sprd Pts
card. Wille started the night on the
wrong foot but warmed up as the evening went on. He opened with a Game 1 loss to Pat “Driller” Jungman by 4
points. That was enough to get Willies
blood going and he was able to out peg John “Saweet” Hensley in Game
2. His win streak stopped there as he
was skunked by “Bad” Betty Morehouse in Game 3. He pulled up his boot straps and went on a 6
game win streak to finish the night!
This was the 3rd 6 game win streak of the night! Good job Willie!
Fourth was Dick “The
Grumbler” Taylor who turned in a 14 Gm Pt, 6 W, +94 Sprd Pts card. Dick started the night with back to back
skunks over “Lethal” Lisa Duff and Jeremy “The Cat” Morris. He went on to win another two straight games
to sit at 10 points after only 4 games!
His luck took a turn for the worse and he lost 3 straight in the middle
of the night. He turned things around
and won the last two games of the night to finish with 14 points and 4th
place. Dick’s average win margin was by
more than 22 points! Good job Dick!
Fifth was “Trooper” Tom Varnell who turned in a 13 Gm
Pt, 6 W, +47 Sprd Pts card. Tom had a
roller coaster ride at the beginning of the night but finished in strong
fashion at the end of the night. Tom
won the opening game but couldn’t pull out the win in Game 2 against John “Rotten”
Reed. He then out pegged Zeke “Da
Zappa” Blocklinger only to fall on hard times with back to back
losses. Tom had 4 points after 5
games. He finished strong with 4
straight wins including a skunk over “Easy” Ed Baustian in Game 6 and a
1 point win over Martin “Ole #1” Hellberg in the last game of the
night. Good job Tom!

SPECIAL POOLS
The special pools were open
and “Lethal” Lisa Duff was able to recognize Raggedy Ann…..she actually
counted it wrong and didn’t claim it the first time she had it early in the
evening. The second time she counted it
right and claimed it. Jeremy “That
Cat” Morris was able to recognize Raggedy Andy in the 5th game. Jeremy also had Raggedy Ann later in the
night but Lisa had already claimed it by then.
Both players walked away with $10 at the end of the night. The Crib Flush, 23 hand, and Wheel are still
open.
