We're going to have the monthly tournament this Saturday (Nov 7th) at 4:30pm for practice and 5:00pm start time!

Standard $5 entry fee and hopefully Buffalo is continuing to sponsor us.

Anyone? I might be able to make it out tonight if any of you can get out
earliesh....say 9 or so??

Cheers,

We tried out G&S Lounge on 27-oct.

It's okay, but the $1.25 games and the overall condition of the bar would likely
detract from new players.

So, let's play back at slicks for the 3-Nov Tuesday games.

And don't forget, the monthly tournament is coming up!  7-Nov at Buffalo
Billiards on 6th Street.  4:30pm practice

We're going to change location for this week.  Sorry for the late notice!

Oct 27th 9pm-ish onward at G&S Lounge / 2420 S First St, Austin, TX

Hope to see you there!

They have 2 tables, btw, so we can play more.

I can't make it on weeknights at all these days....not sure when, if
any time again soon. If there is a November monthly I may try for that
again. Or maybe one weekend in November we can try to organize a
practice?

Sorry I'm so out of touch in the AH scene. Childcare is a pretty big
issue for me as of late but if we schedule an early evening Fri/Sat
night practice I could bring Wyatt along...

Cheers,
Kendra

I guess that's a no? I was planning on going out, but after nobody
showed up last week, I guess I'll save the effort and stay home unless
someone speaks up.

Is anyone playing tonight at Slicks and will you be staying late enough for me
to get in a few games.

Right now, it looks like Slick Willie's on Tuesday at 9:30.   It would
be great if everyone could try and come out and play.

I had a nasty cold this week but am feeling better now.  (Sorry for not showing
up last night, Norman.)

I was debating about the Saturday monthly since I've had a couple of people say
they can't make it.  I'm more than willing to run the tourney again this week.

for Saturday:  Rama, Carl, Henry, Norman, Vincent(?), Kendra(?) -- anyone else?

And for next week... definitely!  I want a chance to play Donovan again!  We've
been playing on Thursdays at Slick's but might meet up on Tuesday at G&S (or
some other place).

I am planning to show up on the assumption that it's still happening.
I waited 30 minutes at Slick Willie's last night and nobody showed up,
so I'm not sure what the current status of things is.  But, I'm going
to assume that nothing has changed.

Hey Austin Pucksters!

Are there any plans for someone to run the monthly tomorrow at Buffalo
Billiards? Not sure if I can make it yet or not, but thought I would ask first
since I  hadn't heard anything.

How are the weekly practices going lately? Donovan might be in town next week
and he was asking if anyone in Austin might be up for playing...

Anyone interested it hitting up the Warehouse Saloon and their $.75 table?  It
plays like it's brand new...

Tuesday Sep 22 at 9pm-ish?  Any takers?

We'd still get together at Slicks on Thursday.

Maybe the Tuesday after, try out G&S on S. 1st street.

Let's continue the weekly gatherings on just Thursday now. (Slick Willies @ 8440
Burnet - next: Sept 10th - 9:30ish )

Maybe we'll do a tournament some Thursday, but it seems that most people prefer
just play in an unstructured format so they can play more/different people.

We had a good time out for yesterday's Saturday tournament even though it was a
bit noisy with the UT Football game blaring.

Saturday top results:

1. Carl
2. Vincent
3. Norman
4. Mark

best new player:  Derek

also playing:  Rama, Donna, Lynn, Mike, Wendy

We're on for meeting on Tuesday and Thursday nights (9:30pm-ish) at Slick Willies.

Also, we'll shoot for a monthly tournament this Saturday at Buffalo Billiards, 5pm.

So come warm up on Tue and Thursday nights and then compete this Saturday!

I'm a little under the weather tonight so won't be at slick willies.  But
hopefully I'll be back up on Thursday if anyone else would like to join us for
some Thursday action at Slick's.
