Charlie ‘Hillbilly’ Bryant joins the OB Team of players
We would like to welcome Charlie 'Hillbilly' Bryant to the OB Team of players. Charlie has been using OB shafts for about 5 years now and we just finalized an agreement with Charlie to proudly wear the OB logos and represent our brand when competing. Charlie had this to say about OB Shafts: "I have been using OB shafts to play with for the many years. I have found that it is easier to draw, hold and masse the cue ball with them than any other shaft. I can cut a ball thinner with an OB and the draw angle off the ball is greater. When using side spin, I don't have to get as far out on the ball. I recommend the OB shaft to all of my students as having the 'Hillbilly Seal of Approval'. They come back and thank me for opening their eyes. In my opinion, OB makes, by far, the best shaft on the market."
Charlie is fresh off another victory after successfully defending his title at the 2nd annual Space City Open 9 Ball Tournament the first weekend in December. 90 players participated in the 9 Ball tournament which took two days to complete and had a total prize fund of $20,000. Charlie “Hillbilly” Bryant defended his 9 Ball title by defeating Jeremy “JJ” Jones from the one-loss side with a 9-0 and then a 7-0 victory to win the event.

Event 3 Report
Saturday 14th December was the date for the last Total9ball Amateur Series event of 2013. 33 players made an appearance to support this fantastic series. St Albans Hurricane room was again the venue and as always they did their utmost to offer the best facilities by re-clothing all the tables, it really was a luxury for the players, a few players mentioned in their opinion these tables were playing the fastest they have ever played on.
Total9ball were impressed to see so many new faces at this event mixed with the regular players and with a great atmosphere in the club we knew this was going to be a brilliant event. Matches began just after 10am after the draw was completed by Jon Butterworth.

Phil Burford - Winner of the 2013 British Grand Prix
Click the image to view the larger photograph - use "back" to return here.
LOCOMOTIVE POWERS TO SECOND WIN OF THE SEASON
The final two professional events of the GB9 season have come to their conclusions with Phil Burford, Daryl Peach and Mick Hill taking the spoils at the inaugural GB9 Festival of Pool.
The best players both from across Great Britain and the continent came together to showcase some of the best pool talent in the world all at one gathering. With Europe claiming an emphatic victory over the USA in the recently completed Mosconi Cup, the British Grand Prix and the UK Open went hand in hand to offer competition of the highest standard to the best players Europe has to offer.
The two finalists in the British Grand Prix had both contested finals earlier in the season - Phil Burford who won the season's opening event in thrilling fashion against Ralf Souquet, and Mark Gray who was runner up in the Northern Masters to the now two-time Mosconi Cup player Karl Boyes. Burford began his campaign against local competition; Kevin Uzzell putting up a brave fight before succumbing 9-5 to the Locomotive. This put Burford one win away from the single-elimination last 32 stage, but a resilient Ian McCormick stood in his way. Another tour battle followed, but Burford saw past the Ulsterman 9-7 to go through the winners’ side undefeated. Burford turned on the juice for his next match against Finlay Laing, whitewashing the Newmarket potter 9-0. However, Burford's first victim, Kevin Uzzell, wasn't done just yet. Having negotiated his way out of the one-loss side of the draw, he returned to face his nemesis once again. The only difference this time was one rack, with Burford securing his second victory over Uzzell 9-6 to set up a match with Tommy Donlon next.

| SIR BARRY HEARN |

"SIR" BARRY HEARN
As we approach the end of the year wouldn’t it be nice to see that pop up in the Queen’s New Year Honours List.
Are Barry’s achievements at least equal to those of Sir Cameron McIntosh or Sir Chris Hoy.
To coincide with Mosconi Cup XX he was inducted into the BCA Hall of Fame.
But so far he is a Prophet Wiithout Honour in his Own Land.
Now I am not suggesting that he gets knighted for his services to pool. That is never going to happen.
But add to that other sports he has enhanced both for their status and the status of the participants.
Where do I start – Snooker, Boxing, Golf and Soccer are the front runners but Ten Pin Bowling, Clay Pigeon, Bushido, Fishing and Table Tennis feature strongly in his portfolio. Don’t mention Poker.
He also heads up a number of organisation that support charitable causes.
Some may argue that he does these things for money. But are Cats or Les Miserables in theatres all over the World any less money orientated. Sir Elton John does not play the piano only for fun.
His tax contribution (after deductions , of course) make a considerable revenue stream for the Exchequer. That seems to be a mitigating factor when titles are bestowed.
Several other sportsmen are the recipients of lesser honours such as the MBE or the OBE. Barry deserves more than that. In fact why don’t we skip straight through and make him Lord Hearn of Romford. Then he might shake up the House of Lords.
Anybody can put forward a nomination so I will start the ball roling on the official documentation.
If you want to support this then post your name in the forum.

Ina Kaplan wins Women’s Euro Tour
In a very single-sided final match, Ina Kaplan (GER) defeated Eyllul Kibaroglu (TUR) with 6:0.
The Women’s Euro-Tour was full of surprises this time. Up until the single elimination, everything went more or less „according to plan“. The highest ranked players like Mazhirina, Kaplan, Roos, Christiansen, Ouschan all were present in the single elimination stage of the event. Down to number nine of the Euro-Tour rankings, every single player has made it in the round.
Then suddenly things started to happen. Unheralded Jennifer Vietz (GER) ousted Nr. 1 seed Ana Mazhirina (RUS) with 6:4. That was the first big shock of the day. Kristina Zlateva (BUL) eliminated Nr. 5 Ine Helvik (NOR) with a string performance with 6:3. The biggest upset happened in the match between Jasmin Ouschan (AUT) and Caroline Roos (SWE). The Austrian, who just got back from the USA, did not at all play up to her usual performance. She committed many mistakes and was punished for them by Roos. Caroline Roos performed rock solid and rightfully won that match with 6:3. Only number 2 ranked player, Ina Kaplan stayed right on track, defeating Ana Gradisnik (SLO) with 6:1.
