Team Competition
Posted at 9:25 PM, 31 March 2008 to Online pool
This weekend my team “Club8 8″ had to play 2 matches which we won 9-0 and 8-1 and because of that we are back on top of the rankings of the First Division in Holland. Number 2 is now “Ames” from Deurne who were in front 6 points before this weekend but now 2 points behind us.
With only 4 matches left including the thriller against “Ames” next month it’s going to be very exciting.
Friday i’ll leave to Switzerland for the Biel Grand Prix. Have been practicing some 10 ball today against Ilker. My game is feeling pretty smooth and really looking forward to this weekend.
Keep you posted.

Yes he did!!!!
Won 2 tournaments in 2 days. The first one was in Leiden where they organized the 17th Leids open. I think the longest running tounament in Holland.
I won 5 matches in a row to reach the semi finals. There I faced Serge Das from Belgium. The score was 8-6 after a missed 8 ball from Serge on 6-6.
Finals against Alex Lely who was playing very well. He had just beaten Gijs van Helmond 8-0 in the other semi final.
At 2-2 i raced to a 6-2 lead. That seemed to be enough because we shared the next 4 games.
8-4 the trophy and my third Dijkjes Leids open Ring
Yihaaaaaaaa.
Next day the planning was to go to Belgium for a 10 ball tournament but i was very tired and i decided to go to
Woerden which is only a 30 minute drive. Some good players there but funny enough i reached the final quite easily.
There i had to play Huidji See the time was already 1 oclock a.m. but we managed to make it a high quality match with some nice kicks, banks and run outs.
It went hill hill and Huidji was forced to play a tough cross corner bank which he missed.
I ran out for my second win of the weekend. That feels good i tell you
I would like to thank all the supporters who where still there at 2 in the morning.
See you soon.

Our Team Club 8 8 is currently ranked 2nd in the league so we got to do some damage to the other teams to give us a chance for the number one spot.
