Fast Break Billiards, Longwood, Florida hosted the $700 Added Amateur And another record breaking Turn Out for a piece of the $2600 total purse.
The Amateur event attracted 76 players with 13 ladies and 2 Junior's taking advantage of reduced entries. Bobby Moore would be the first to make it to the hot seat match on the day with wins over Roberto Deleon 5-0, Jim Sandaler 5-2, Tim Daniel 5-3, Richard Knight(turtle) 5-0 and then he would find himself in a hot seat matchup with good friend and road partner Albert Howe. Howe who is proving him self to be one of the top players on tour, has become a Hill Hill specialist this season winning more than 60% of his matches in the case game. His route to the final would see him defeat Stacy Redard 5-3, Josh Lewis 5-4, Jeff Mabry 5-2, Elvis Rodriguez 5-1 Jim Heron 6-4 to put himself in with a shot at Moore.
The Hotseat match would be a very tight affair with both players playing solid pool, at 5-5 Moore would run the table to take the match and let Howe know that he cant win them all at Hill Hill.
The one loss side was packed with talented players trying to work there way back. There would be no easy matches with players like Tony Pete, Shanelle Loraine, Jeannie Seaver, Danny Sheldon, Josh Lewis, Angel Rivera.
Wesley White was looking strong on the one loss side with wins over Richard Murray 5-3, Danny Sheldon 5-4 before running into Jim Heron and losing 5-4 Heron would then go onto beat Jeannie Seaver 5-4 making the 9 ball on the break to win this match Hill Hill. The semi final Match up would see Howe beat Heron 5-3 and book himself a revenge match with Moore.
Moore would come out the gates quick in the final and take a 4-0 lead, Howe would mount a mini comeback and take the next 2 games but that would be it as Moore closed the match out 6-2 to take his first KF event with 1st place prize of $600.
