New Guy vs. Bamaster... place your bets! Win something!
« on: April 28, 2004, 02:29:18 AM »
For those that don't already know, this weekend there is a PBA regional event in Phil's hometown of San Antonio, Texas.  Phil bowls league in the house and Dyno-thane is a co-sponsor of the event.  And those that know me, know that I have come out of retirement just to bowl this event. I have tenodonitis in my wrist and hadn't thrown a ball in over 5 weeks before last Thursday.  He's a leftie and I'm a rightie.  He's old and I'm handsome.

So place your bets!

Who's gunna have the highest 8-game qualifying score?  Whoever picks the winner and guesses by how many pins without going over... WINS!

Only one prediction per poster.  Entries end on Friday at midnight.  If a duplicate exists, the first to submit gets it.

The winner gets at least a tote bag generously donated by the loser.  I have a new tote bag I can give to the winner if by a freak accident I lose.  Phil can at least do the same after I whip up on him.

Haha!

PBAFIRE .. I thought there were two rounds of eight games before they make a cut! It was my impression that the BET is based on QUALIFING .. that would be after tomorrows round of 8 games .. I THINK!

Joe, there are 2 squads of qualifying, 8 games each squad.  Then it's a cut to the top 1/3 for Sunday morning where they bowl a best of 5.  By the looks of it only Phil made the cut.  Perhaps pbafire is correct about the spread for qualifying.

Yeah, the bet was for qualifying only.  There are 8 games in qualifying.  We were on the the same squad (A squad) and he whooped me.  If I had knocked 18 more sticks down I would hae cashed and made it to Sunday and at least bowled 5 more games during the semifinals and could have made a charge at that lead he got on me.  But it was not to be.

I send "afbowler" a private message to get his address.  I owe him a tote bag.  And for the record, Phil was going to give an undrilled Element Au79 from his personal inventory... as opposed to ordering it from a warehouse.  

Congrat to Phil.  He beat me on a shot I thought I was going to tear up.  After During practice I had a great shot off the gutter.  I had him for a while, but he popped off a big game and I finished like a punk, as usual.  Didn't make some key shots and missed too many easy spares.  Cost me this bet and a check in the tournament.
