Last night at Time Out we had a really nice turnout again - although the tournament ran a little later than we normally would because we (I) got caught up watching the hockey game instead of starting the tournament on time!
The event was really fun, as we did a High/Low tournament - meaning the highest ranked player partners up with the player with the least points and the second highest ranked player partners up with the person with the second least points.
In the opening round Chad and Ray had a great match against Jamie and Taras. Jamie was picking some really tight holes on his 3 bar and passing really well too, but Chad and Ray battled hard with Chad's 5 row really doing well offensively.
Kieran - who has made it out a few times recently - and I were partnered up. Kieran is a player that has a lot of game still from the Brown top Million Dollar table days, and you could really see it translate into his play now. Banking and a very typical TS defence were major parts of his game, but the best part about partnering with Kieran was the way he never gave up on a ball and fought for every inch. A few times shots or deflections would make it through on net and he would pull of miracle saves.
Chris Kerr and Steve Monson really came out flying knocking off #2 seed Roger and Scott - Chris was passing lights out, with his combination of Wall, Lane, Off-the-wall-uphill, and stick to the middle man passes. Chris has perfected the series with the tic-tac and being able to read the defence... then pick whichever hole he wants and just smoke the ball through. On the 3 row Chris was again methodical, rocking the ball in rollover position and timing the hole that opened for him. He hit a lot of tight middle/split shots and was getting the ball really deep to both sides of the net - it was perfection.
In the pits for Chris - Steve was putting on a show too. Steve blocked everyone really well, first Roger but then in the second match against Chad and Ray too. In the kingseat match Chris and Steve played against Kieran and I, who fought through the other side of the chart beating Ritchie and Maria and then Conrad and Ed. Chris kept up his really good work on the 5 and found some shooting success against Kieran. It went to 3-2 in the 3rd game for us when Steve took a time out and then switched to go up front. Chris made the clears/blocks and Steve put the match away taking them to the final.
In the B side, Kieran and I played Chad and Ray for 3rd or better. In game 1 Chad scored from up front - then switched and went back and put away 3 monstrous 2 bar goals, Ray also scored a push shot and they had 5-0'd us quicker than I have seen before. In Game 2 Kieran came out hot and put away two more banks... which he found a way to hit consistently throughout the night. We ended up fighting back to win the match and move on to play in the final against Chris and Steve again.
In the final I found my shot really well and Kieran was blocking really well. Chris and Steve tried a few switches but couldn't really get things rolling this time around. Kieran and I took both sets and won the tournament.
