Fabulous food and wonderful wine await you in Lugo, Galicia, Spain.
There's more to this year's premier Spanish event than the 30,000 Euro prize fund!
I always think Galicia in Spain is very much like Scotland - see if you can tell which I'm describing here... The locals speak with very strong accents and many words sound completely different, the weather is cooler up North, there are many picturesque coastal fishing villages, such beautiful low mountains, and the traditional costume includes a skirt-like affair for the proud men. Actually, that's Galicia - and if you've not been before you're in for a real treat!
Lugo itself is an historic place, surrounded by an ancient Roman city wall - and the venue is a large conference centre beautifully situated on the banks of the river Miño. While you're there, make sure you try the seafood as it is out of this world - so fresh it could still swim, and accompanied by a simply stunning local wine your evenings will be idyllic.
Add to that one of the best organised pool tournaments in the world and you've got a winning combination that even the most battle hardened pool player will love!
RyanAir fly to Santiago de Compostela and foreign players will be collected at the airport - there's already half a dozen Brits registered and there's likely to be more as you simply can't beat this opportunity!

The High Wycombe Hurricane 9 Ball Open
This much anticipated tournament at a chain of clubs that you might not have heard of before, but they have arrived with a bang and the first of a series of 9 ball tournaments was fully subscribed and is drawing to a close now.
The familiar eight groups of six players format is being used, with the top two from each group qualifying for a single elimination Last 16 stage.
There was a bit of controversy as groups were decided by racks won only and not matches.
Rico Diks group was decided by 1 rack. Rico thought he was through after winning 4 matches, then he lost his last match 5-0 to Chris Buckmaster which is where the drama started.
Craig Osborne thought he was through on racks won, by 1 rack even though he had lost 2 matches in the group.
After endless chat and discussion the decided outcome was a play off match between Craig and Rico, but Rico was not happy with this, insisted on his money back and left, and Ossie went through to the last 16 by the skin of his teeth.

| 2009/10 BLACK BOTTLE SAPPA SCOTTISH 9-BALL TOUR |
 Scottish American Pool Players Association
S.A.P.P.A.
www.scottish9ball.com
www.blackbottle.com
15 May 2009
The Scottish American Pool Players Association (S.A.P.P.A.) is delighted to announce that they have secured a 12-month sponsorship deal with Black Bottle Whisky for the forthcoming 2009/10 season.
www.blackbottle.com
This deal will provide a massive boost for S.A.P.P.A. as we strive to take the game to the next level in Scotland, with the agreement that the Black Bottle logo will feature on all S.A.P.P.A. merchandise and website activity for the duration of the contract. It is especially pleasing that the financial investment is coming from such a recognisable Scottish brand.
Black Bottle Whisky has been warming the hearts of whisky lovers for over 100 years, with few blended whiskies being able to claim the same rich heritage. It captures the very essence of Islay in an artful marriage all seven of the island’s classic malts, alongside some of the finest grain available. From 1879 to the present day, Black Bottle has become something of a whisky paradox, a blend regarded by true whisky lovers as a fine dram.
The first event of the 2009/10 Black Bottle S.A.P.P.A. Scottish 9-Ball Tour takes place next weekend at Riley's, Stirling and spaces are still available to join the Tour. Information regarding joining the Tour can be found at www.scottish9ball.com/membership or by contacting Ross McInnes, S.A.P.P.A. Tournament Organiser, on 07749 550 440.

Darren Appleton victorious at the World Pool Masters in Las Vegas.

Darren Appleton (ENG) 8-4 Nick Van Den Berg (NED)
Darren Appleton, the reigning World 10 Ball Champion became the third ever Englishman to win the PartyPoker.net World Pool Masters title following a fighting 8-4 win over Holland’s Nick van den Berg at the Riviera Hotel in Las Vegas.
The 33 year-old, who converted to big table pool in recent years, following an outstanding career at English 8 Ball, beat Raj Hundal, Ralf Souquet and Mika Immonen en route to the final.
As well as the title and magnificent trophy, Appleton takes a cheque for $20,000 while Van Den Berg earned half that amount.
"It's unbelievable to win the World Pool Masters," said Appleton. "It has been my goal to win a Matchroom event and to win this is like winning another world title.
"After the 10-ball victory I put a lot of expectation on myself and hopefully this will help me get in the World Cup of Pool and the Mosconi Cup. We all want to play in Matchroom tournaments and this hasn't done me any harm.”
"This gives me a lot more belief that I can go on and keep winning titles. My target has been to get in the Mosconi Cup and winning this puts me in the mix. It is every pool players dream to play in the Mosconi Cup.”

Mika Immonen (FIN) 8-4 Dennis Orcollo (PHI)
IN THE final match of the last eight, Mika Immonen was always too good against Dennis Orcollo, running out an 8-4 winner at the Riviera and now earns himself a match up with Darren Appleton for a spot in Sunday night’s final.
"I think I had the best of it on the break and felt I only made one unforced error when I jumped up on the three-ball and scratched - horrible shot,” said Immonen.
"But I played a solid match and he didn't have many chances. I wasn't nervous at all and felt comfortable.

Pontefract's Darren Appleton has a better day at the World Pool Masters in Las Vegas.

Darren Appleton (ENG) 8-3 Raj Hundal (IND)
The final match of the afternoon session saw reigning World 10 Ball Champion Darren Appleton defeat old rival Raj Hundal of India in a match that saw the Englishman trailing in the early stages before winning eight racks on the spin to take the victory.
Hundal made a great start as he raced into a 3-0 lead; Appleton misjudged a safety on the 2-ball which cost him the opener before Hundal produced two near faultless racks.
However, Appleton took advantage of a missed pot on the 1-ball and that lead to the Englishman winning his first rack. Seconds later it was 3-2 as Appleton came up with a golden break as the 9-ball fell into the side pocket.

Johnny Archer progresses to the next round at the World Pool Masters in Las Vegas.

Johnny Archer (USA) 8-2 Imran Majid (ENG)
A highly-determined Johnny Archer moved into the last eight with an assured performance as he brushed aside the challenge of England’s Imran Majid to win 8-2, much to the delight of the capacity crowd at the Riviera.
From a 2-all scoreline, the Englishman didn’t get much of a look in as Archer dominated with his powerful break and clinical finishing.
There was some potential needle in the encounter as the players had clashed controversially over accusations of Imran sharking Archer at the 2006 Mosconi Cup, but the American diffused the situation with his dominating play.
"That was a good performance and I was very happy with the way I played. I made some good shots and a couple of racks were pretty easy but there was consistency which has been lacking so maybe I'm on my way back,” said Archer.
"Any time Mosconi Cup members play each other there will be a little bit of extra spark. I don't have anything against Imran Majid but to beat anyone from the Mosconi Cup gives you an extra boost.

Don't let Cha's beauty fool you, she can be a deadly force.
Yu Ram Cha Takes on the Men at the World Pool Masters...
21 year old billiard sensation Yu Ram Cha of Korea has been invited as the sole woman entrant of the 2009 World Pool Masters. The event takes place at the Riviera Hotel and Casino this weekend May 8-10 and is produced by Matchroom Sport, a leading force in billiard promotions. The World Pool Masters has had a long history of famous champions such as Ralf Souquet, Thomas Engert, Raj Hundal, and defending champion Alex Pagulayan. Sixteen men are invited each year, with last year being the first time a woman was invited in Jasmin Ouschan of Austria. This year Yu Ram Cha was selected.
Cha has quickly rised to the forefront of the pool world's more notable players. Nicknamed "The Little Lightning" for her petite stature but powerful break, stroke and explosive game, her titles include 2006 Korea Pro Tour Champion, 2007 Super Billiards Expo Woman's Amateur Champion, 2007 World Junior 10-Ball Champion, and multiple regional pro/am event wins in US women's tours. In 2008 Cha went out to the USA to try to win qualifiers for the WPBA Women's Pro Tour and quickly made a statement coming out of nowhere to finish 3rd at the WPBA US Open including a first time ESPN TV match win over Karen Corr. That year she took down a multitude of top names such as Monica Webb, Jasmin Ouschan, Xiao Ting Pan, Kelly Fisher, Helena Thornfeldt, Jennifer Chen and many more. She started the year unranked and finished #18 and earned WPBA Most Improved Player as well as 2008 Billiard's Digest Breakthrough Player.
