Last 16
- Oscar Regueiro - Manuel Montejo - Emilio Madero - James Kay - Mick Hill - David López - Francisco Díaz Pizarro - Oscar Oliva - Alessandro Torrenti - David Alcaide - Oscar González - Antonio Fazanes - Imran Majid - Albert Caselles - Javier Andrés Herrera - Shane Appleton
I believe that's right, forgive me if I'm wrong. It's difficult to link on the CEP web site because they're using frames.

Imran lost 6-10 to Carlos Cabello and in the other semi-final David Alcobero beat Jose Luis Liebana 10-9 so the final is an all Spanish affair. The brits in general did pretty well, more details and photos mañana if I get time. Thanks for the kind words Simon, good to meet you.

Malaguista will be able to furnish you with all the details you'll need, he's just finishing the running of the billiards/snooker/pool side of the 2006 Seville Games this week and he'll be here to help as soon as he's had a moments sleep! How nice to live in Spain, will you be working there? Lucky you!

Wow, what a great time we had in Spain!! The event as you can see from the article was spectacular. Tables were excellent albiet a bit tight but they ran very well, the spectators could see everything with the stadium style seating and most important......air conditioning!!!! Moreover, the organisation was second to none. There were full draw tables of each group with a match time and table number next to your name. It meant you could plan your day around your match times. You turned up, took your score sheet from a box by the top table that corresponded with your table number and played pool. Then you hit a bar (the Brits did anyway  ). Big up to all the Brits who went, it was a good show by us overall. I would have liked to have done a little more damage myself but I was pleased with my win and my overall performance. Special big up to Peter Aprile (Malaguista) and his lovely wife for their hospitality and organisation skills. We look forward to the next event! Si

We got there wednesday and i didnt get to play until Saturday at 6.30pm, and then was playing at 12am to qualify!...and there were NO practice facilities...not even a club for miles around! I had problems with the fact that they had half the tables covered with Gorina cloth and the other half in Simonis cloth, they also had half the tables with the pro TV cup balls and the other half with something else that reminded me of club balls, both these factors made the tables play totally different. It was ok if you got to play all your matches with the same conditions, but if you didnt then it was impossible to get anywhere near consistent. I thought for such a good venue they would have had the air con working too! Apart from that it was great! hahahahaha -----------------  [ This message was edited by: dazzler on 2006-07-11 12:31 ]
