     "Sweety" was a little more active this evening, visiting four different people. "Bad" Betty Morehouse started her journey taking her in her first game. Shirley "Buzz Saw" Guest snatched her away in game three only to give up possession for a short while to  "Trooper" Tom Varnell during his sixth game. But  Shirley recovered and scored back to back 24's in her last game to cement her hold and collect the $11.00  prize.

 

EVENT HAPPENINGS

        Shirley "Buzz Saw" Guest lost her first two games before going on a streak and winning the next five games in a row skunking both "Saweet" Johnny Hensley and Connie Riordan. "Trooper" Tom Varnell stopped her momentarily but she roared back double skunking Dave "Da Boz" Bosley to complete her 15 Pt. 6 W 162 Spread Card and capturing first place.

 

         Dave "Da Boz" Bosley came in second tonight losing his first but winning his next four games before losing another one. He won his next two games but was soundly defeated being double skunked by Shirley "Buzz Saw" Guest in his last one after Shirley hit him with back to back 24's but he still managed a 13 Pt  6 W 28 Spread card.

 

          "Trooper" Tom Varnell put together a string of his last five games tonight after losing three of his first four games to complete his 13 Pt. 6 W 27 Spread Card for third place money tonight.

          

          John "Rotten" Reed finally got into the points race tonight but collected no money with his 12 Pt 6 W 38 Spread card.

SPECIAL POOLS

 

        No special pools were drained tonight. So far then only the Crib Flush and the Wheel are unavailable.

 

  28/29  POOL

 

       No attempts to drain the pool reported tonight. But our visitor and hopefully new member Connie Riordan  had a shot at a 29 hand holding a J and three 5's but got no help with the cut.

 So the pool now stands at $290.00 after the third night of the  new season.

 

 Skunk Fund


        The skunk fund was a little more prosperous tonight. It received  $2.25 by the end of the evening.   WE STILL THANK ALL OF YOU!! 

DIRECTOR’S NOTE
