The field was intense for the $1500 Added two day event and the top 40 amateurs showed up in full force from all over the state. Some new twist was added to the event with race to 7 on both sides and the final 8 players being brought back for the second day.
The first day of play brought out some interesting results. Jacksonville player John Tatum was left in 12th place after losing to Stroker's room owner Jose Delrio sent him to the one loss side to face Orlando player Travis Moore. Jason Richko faced both Tracie Hines and Jimmy Hines in back to back matches on the one loss side after losing to Steve Foster 7-1 on the winner's side. Richko left Tracie Hines in 15th place and Jimmy Hines in 11th place while he stayed in the event to come back the second day. In the meantime Doug Cruz who has sent Tracie Hines to the west side with a score of 7-4 met his match with long time tour player Jimmy Sandaler when Sandaler won the hill hill match. Cruz was left in 10th place after Tim Daniel took the match. Bruce Choice put Daniel on the one loss side early in the event in a 7-4 victory. Daniel worked hard to come back the second day by sending Paul LeCain (7-2), Scott Howard (7-3), and Doug Cruz (7-5) home. Donnie Runk from Jacksonville ended his first day in 10th place when after struggling through the winner's brackets winning against Jim Oddy (7-3) and Travis Moore (7-6) till Foster sent him to the west with a score (7-1). Runk lost his next match to Brian Davalos 7-6 allowing him to continue the second day.
Second day brought back the top 8 players of the event. On the winners side Bruce Choyce faced Stroker's room owner Jose Delrio while Jimmy Sandaler and Steve Foster went head to head. On the one loss side Brian Davalos and Tim Daniel played for 7th place and Travis Moore played Richko for 8th place. Davalos sent Daniels home in a very intense match scoring 9-7 and Moore went home after his loss of 9-4. Richko then went on to face Sandaler while Davalos faced Choyce. Richko took his win at 9-8 while Davalos won his round 9-7. Richko and Davalos faced off with each other while Foster and Delrio played the King of the Hill match. Foster jumped ahead of Delrio and even though Delrio fought hard Foster kept the lead and took the King of the Hill title 9-5. Richko kept their games tied till Davalos jumped ahead taking the victory 9-5 leaving Richko in 4th place. Davalos and Delrio, both local players, took on the challenge against each other to see who would play against Kink of the Hill Foster. Delrio was in stroke as he jumped ahead of Davalos 9-3 leaving Davalos in 3rd place.
For the final race to 11 match Foster and Delrio faced off. Both players had been playing excellent against the very tough amateurs. Foster jumped ahead of Delrio 4-1 but Delrio fought back trying to play catch up making the score 5-2 but the rolls didn't seem to go his way as Foster kept his lead to win the finale with a 11-4 score.
