Breakers rebound, Fook the Tuna.
FT_the_all_starz_com - BA_taalibulilm (W) - Tyler (all_starz) started off well, but couldn't quite bang his way to finish out the run. Cue the entrance on taali to the game. After 5 straight solids from Tyler, 6 straight STRIPES are made. But now we have a nice predicament. All 4 remaining balls (15, 3, 5, 8) are in the lower right corner. Obviously someone has to blink... taali would make the mistake of trying to move the cueball TOO much, while Tyler moved the balls around a bit. Tyler would then go for the house here, banking the 5 off the bottom to the top middle... But NO good! Taali sinks the 15, then the 8, and BA is out to the early 1-0 lead.
FT_david_daniel92 - BA_l3acknl3lack (W) - Double-D making his first appearance of the MLP season, looking to tie things up early. Backnblack would make both the 5 and 4ball on one shot, setting up for the 2ball in the top left. Needed backspin to try and set it up for the 6 in the middle of the table... Not even enough power to make the 2 (barely even touched it.) David ran into trouble with 3 stripes left, so he safeties trying to use his 3-to-2 balls left advantage. But he NAILS the 6ball with a nice cuebank off the top to the bottom middle pocket, 2 DOES go this time, and Breakers lead it 2-0!
FT_swigglekittin8987 - BA_nvrgiveup.hope (W) - Let's put it simple - Swiggle makes the 8 early, BA goes up 3-0. Simple ay?
FT_y_elite (S) - BA_blondes_1001 - Well, it's on y_elite to save this match for the Tuna (and the other 3 after him.) Quick game with a quick run, as things got a little heated between the two leagues... Basically just a bad joke gone... well... Bad. It's 3-1 though, is the comeback on?
FT_ft.masta - BA_tw.inkie (C) - Replacement captain against the "star acquisition" for Breakers Alley. Phil would get ball in hand early and often in this one, but he gave it up on a VERY foolish shot, trying to play and extra, unnecessary safety. So masta would take his chances and try to run it. 5 in the top right, then the 6 in the lower right. 3-ball across from the middle to the top left... 2 ball top middle, 4 in the top right, just cruising along. THEN he screws up. Badly. He goes for the 7 bottom left and spins back with no easy shot on the 1ball. Tried to hang the cueball in the bottom middle unsuccessfully. Phil would finally go for the run but got caught up behind his 11, and too close for a shot so he safetied again. Really in this "safety battle" at the end of the game, ft.masta was the better player. Phil couldn't make any kind of shot to move the game along at all, just tried to be overconservative, which was the theme of the whole game. masta had a lot of breathing room though, as Phil couldn't get any kind of open shots anywhere without banking. Finally he had to make a shot. masta left the 11 ball from the bottom side of the table all the way across, up to the top right pocket... MONEY! He BARELY left a shot coming down on the 8ball, along the low rail to the bottom right pocket, and the twinkster clinches it for Breakers Alley. 4-1 the score. Here are the other results:
FT_ft_gobbling_turkey_man (W) - BA_lets.ro11
BA_im_just_jeremy wins by forfeit. 5-2 BA the final.
