Waiting on our little baby
Posted at 9:48 AM, 30 April 2008 to Online pool
Only 15 days to go till the 15th of may. Thats the day when Vanessa and me are expecting our first baby. I tell you and all the daddys know. This waiting takes too long 
every day seems like a week not to think about how Vanessa must feel. She is been carrying him with her all the time We both hope he will come a bit earlier then the 15th and hoping he’s healthy and can stay home.

Hi,
Qualified Friday for the last 32 beating Nikola Kemilev 9-8, was trailing 8-5 when i caught a gear. I knew if i wouldnt make mistakes i would still get chances because he looked nervous to me. At 8-8 we had a nice safetybatlle when he banked in a cross corner bank on the 2. He didnt control the cue ball and scratched. I ran out for 9-8.
After that match i had to play better to beat Marcus Chamat for Sweden. At 7-7 i made two tough cut shots for 8-7. His break but he missed the 4 ball. 9-7
Last 32 Saturday.
First match against Martin Larsen from Denmark. This was a thriller with some mistakes from both sides. I managed to win 9-8 .
Last 16 against Imran Majid. at 4-4 He hplayed some nice shots to take the lead 8-4. I fought back to 8-8 where i would get a real big chance for the win. I overjudged the 4 ball when the ball bounced off the short rail for position on the 6. i played safe, he played safe and i played safe :) But that was my last shot he jumped in the 6 ball and position on the 7 . 
Jump cues should be banned!! :) (I mean it)
9th place. Now i go back home to my wife and wait. Iam excited because Vanessa and me are expecting our first little baby in 4 weeks :)

Hi
Firts of all, Played very well yesterday
First round against Fabian Hummer if iam not mistaking. Made no mistakes and won 7-1.
2nd round against Urs Furrer and won 8-1
3rd round i had to play Jonathan Fulcher from Switzerland, lost to him on the hill last January in the Paris open. Something really weird happened. When the score was 7-4 in my favour he had ball in hand. He was thinking what to do for about 3 minutes. When he tried to pick up the cue ball he dropped it out of his hand and hit the 9 ball. It rolled to the pocket and stopped right in front of it wih the 2 ball right next to it. Thank you 8-4.
Quarter final: Christian Reimering. Played very well with in total 6 breaks and runs i won 8-5. The cut break was really working well for me and i had teh feeling i could win this tournament if i just kept this rhytm going.
The Semi finals against peach. A few rolls for both of us made the score 7-3. I totally lost my concentration from that point and lost 9-7 
.
3rd place int his tournament, not bad at all but it could have been more. Next tournament will already be on Thursday in Italy. The Eurotour cut for the World championships.
Keep you Posted
