Karen Corr |
Karen Corr wins Providence Joss Stop |
Mike Zuglan and the Joss NE 9-Ball
Tour was at Snookers Billiards Lounge in Providence, RI with
a field of 60 players competing in a $2000 added event.
Sunday dawned with four unbeaten players and that number was
cut in half when Ivaylo Petro defeated Bob Madenjian 9-5 and
Karen Corr defeated Randy Labonte 9-5.
From there, Corr defeated Petrov 9-5 for the hot-seat.
On the one loss side, Bucky Souvanthong was making his way through
the field with wins over Tom McGonagle, Randy Labonte and Bob
Madenjian. Souvanthong's run came to and end with a hill-hill
loss to Petrov, earning Petrov a rematch with Corr in the finals.
On this day though, Corr was unstoppable as she rolled to a
dominating 9-4 win in the first and only set of the finals.
Corr earned $1600 for the win with Petrov taking home $1100
in second place prize money.
Zuglan indicated that the Turning Stone XI scheduled for August
14 - 17 is filling up fast and interested parties should ge
their entries into Zuglan at 518-356-7163 as soon as possible.

| Dan Heidrich
Comes Out Victor at Comet Billiards |
Dan Heidrich |
|
On Sunday, April 27th, Mike Zuglan’s Joss Northeast 9-Ball
Tour ended its weekend at Comet Billiards in Parsippany, New
Jersey. With a total field of twenty-nine players, the event
offered up a total purse of $4320, but in the end, it was Dan
Heidrich that would come out on top this time around.
Sunday started out with only four players left on the winners
side of the bracket. Dan Heidrich was matched up against Jessie
Ramirez; while Adam Kielar was pitted against Jonathan Smith.
Heidrich ousted Ramirez by a final score of 9-5, and Keilar
finished off Smith 9-6. Both Heidrich and Keilar found themselves
in the hot-seat match and although extremely close throughout
the entire match, Heidrich ended on the better side of the scorecard
with a 9-7 victory under his belt.
The one-loss side commenced with Bucky Souvanthong sending Jason
Michas home 9-4, Carmen Lombardo besting Bob Blackmore in a
marathon set, and Jonathan Smith avenged an earlier loss to
Souvanthong by an eventual 9-5 win. Lombardo then proceeded
to push past Ramirez in the next round 9-7, only to fall to
Smith 9-6 afterwards in the quarters, setting up a semi-final
round between Keilar and Smith. Keilar maintained the momentum
of the set and rolled over Smith 9-2 to ensure his spot in the
finals.
Continuing on with his run, Keilar forced a second set in the
true double elimination final round by overcoming Dan Heidrich
9-3, but by the second set, Heidrich jumped on the train and
took down a five pack after sharing racks initially to capture
the 9-4 tournament win.
Next stop for the tour will be a $2000 added event at Snooker’s
in Providence, Rhode Island, May 3rd-4th. Entries are still
being accepted for the $25000 added Turning Stone Classic XI
to be held August 14th-17th at Turning Stone Casino in Verona,
New York. To ensure your spot, contact Mike Zuglan at (518)
356-7163 immediately. Additional information on this event and
the tour in general can be found at www.joss9balltour.com.

Dennis Hatch |
Dennis Hatch Top Gun at Golden Cue Billiards |
The seventh stop of Mike Zuglan’s
Joss Northeast 9-Ball Tour 2008 season drew the north’s
top guns to shoot it out for this $3000 added event. The host
room this weekend (April 19th-20th) was one of the older rooms
in the area of approximately 50 years, Golden Cue Billiards
in Albany, New York. Even with remodeling underway to bring
the room into the modern age, the spectators made their way
in and filled the room to see such top names as Karen Corr,
Mike Zuglan, Dennis Hatch, and Tom D’Alfonso in the total
field of forty-nine players.
When Sunday morning came about, only eight players had made
it back to bring on the competition. They included, on the winners
side, match-ups between Mike Zuglan and Dan Heidrich, along
with Dennis Hatch and Bucky Souvanthong. Both Zuglan and Hatch
power-housed their way throw their opponents with wins of 9-6
(Zuglan v. Heidrich) and 9-2 (Hatch v. Souvanthong). This brought
on a very competitive hot-seat contest between Hatch and Zuglan.
Although the victor of the match ended up being Hatch, Zuglan
offered a hard fought battle in the end being sent to the one-loss
side by a score of 9-7.
On the one-loss side, the first matches of the day saw Tom D’Alfonso
defeat WPBA touring star Karen Corr 9-6 and Eddie Abraham blowout
his opponent, Frank Bess 9-1. Abraham then went on to best Souvanthong
9-5 before ending his weekend to Dan Heidrich 9-4. Heidrich
warmed up prior to his win over Abraham by taking on and defeated
a very sporty D’Alfonso 9-7.
Heidrich continued his hot playing in the semi-final round against
Zuglan as he took down the win 9-1 to move on into the finals
with Hatch. Although the last round is a true double elimination
final, it took only one set to determine a winner for the weekend.
Hatch held Heidrich off and ended with a 9-5 victory and the
$1800 purse.
The next event for the tour will be held at Comet Billiards
in Parsippany, New Jersey this next weekend, April 26th-27th
($2000 added). Also, entries are being accepted for the $25000
added Turning Stone Classic XI to be held August 14th-17th at
Turning Stone Casino in Verona, New York. If you have not been
to Turning Stone in the past as a player or spectator, it is
one of the best venues to attend throughout the year. The field
is full months in advance and the location is fantastic - contact
Mike Zuglan immediately if you plan to participate to ensure
your spot.

| Kirkwood comes
back for Joss Tour Win |
Jason Kirkwood |
The Joss NE 9-Ball Tour was in action the weekend
of April 5-6 for a $2000 added stop at Raxx Pool Room in West
Hempstead, NY.
Top seeds in this one included Tony Robles, Jason Kirkwood and
Mike Zuglan.
Kirkwood dropped to the left side of the board early on Saturday
after a loss to Chuck Altomare and Bobby Blackmore had wins
over both Robles and Zuglan on his way to the hotseat.
Zuglan lost to Blackmore for the hotseat and was then eliminated
by Kirkwood, who had been tearing through the one loss side
ever since the early loss. Kirkwood cruised by Zuglan 9-3 to
leave Zuglan in 3rd place.
The true double elimination finals left Kirkwood in the position
of having to defeat Blackmore twice to earn the tournament win.
The first set was 9-3 with Kirkwood taking the easy win. The
second set saw Kirkwood race to a quick 6-2 lead and hold off
a Blackmore comeback to win the match 9-7.
Kirkwood earned $1400 for first place, while Blackmore pocketed
$950 for second place.
The Joss NE 9-Ball Tour will be at Golden Cue Billiards in Albany,
NY on the weekend of April 19th and 20th for their next event.

Bucky Souvanthong |
Souvanthong holds off Kirkwood for Joss
Tour Win |
Mike Zuglan and the Joss NE 9-Ball
Tour drew a field of 37 players to Classic Billiards in Rochester,
NY on the weekend of March 29 - 30 for a $2000 added tour stop.
The winners side came down to Joss Tour regular Bucky Souvanthong
vs Dan Heidrich. Heidrich had just finished sending Jason Kirkwood
to the one loss side 9-6, but he came up short against Souvanthong
9-7.
On the one loss side, Heidrich found Kirkwood waiting. Kirkwood
had dispatched local Pat Howey as well as Ron Cosanzio, and
was now looking for revenge against Heidrich. Kirkwood would
have his revenge with a 9-5 win over Heidrich.
The true double elimination finals came down to Souvanthong
vs Kirkwood and Kirkwood made quick work of Souvanthong in the
first set 9-3. The second set stayed close all the way and came
down to a tie at hill-hill with one game to determine the winner.
Both players had chances in the final rack, but it was Souvanthong
who pocketed the case 9-ball and collected the first prize of
$1500.
The Joss NE 9-Ball Tour will be at Raxx Pool Room and Grill
in West Hempstead, NY next weekend (April 5-6) for their next
event. Zuglan is still taking sign-ups for the Turning Stone
Classic XI which will take place on August 14-17 at the Turning
Stone Casino in Verona, NY.

| Hatch wins Joss
NE 9-Ball Tour Syracuse Stop |
Dennis Hatch, Dickie Cappotto, Andrew Attard
& Mike Zuglan |
The Joss NE 9-Ball Tour returned from their
regular Turning Stone Classic break with a $1500 added event
at Cap's Cue Club in Syracuse, NY. Tour director Mike Zuglan
wanted to give special thanks at this event to Joe Neri who
helped sponsor the tour stop.
This tournament saw Dennis Hatch continue his hot play that
he displayed at Turning Stone, but it wasn't easy. Hatch took
the hot-seat with a nail-biting 9-8 win over Andrew Attard.
Attard went to the left side of the board and defeated Bucky
Souvanthong 9-7 to earn another shot at Hatch in the finals.
The finals were another close match, but Hatch came out on the
winning side again; this time by the score of 9-7.
Zuglan wanted to remind players that the next $25000 added Turning
Stone event is on August 14th - 17th. Player entries are coming
in faster than usual this time and players are urged to contact
Mike Zuglan asap to secure their spot.

Jeremy Sossei and Johnny Archer |
Archer and Sossei Finish off Turning Stone
Classic X |
The Turning Stone Classic X has
finally drawn to a close and what a fantastic story came out
of this week. This venue brings out the best and worst in players
due to the field of champions that make the trip to Verona,
non-stop intense play, and overwhelming arena setting.
One young player out of Connecticut, Jeremy Sossei, brought
his solid and methodical play to the event and made a huge splash
with those that did not already know his name. Sossei took the
bull by the horns and purposefully maintained his efforts to
dominate one opponent after another starting with Ewa Laurance
9-1, George Lord 9-1, Chris Lazarovitch 9-3, Dan Doerner 9-5,
Louis Rios 9-4, and Ronnie Wiseman 9-7. Sossei did not allow
an opponent to achieve more than five games in any set until
he ran into Wiseman on the final day of the event. Sossei’s
next set against Johnny Archer in the hot-seat cooled him down
only slightly as he jumped ahead to a 6-2 lead, but ultimately
fell to Archer 9-7.
Archer made his way to the hot-seat match by dominating the
top section of the winners bracket with wins over Justin Acker
9-2, a nail biting match with Vermont’s Dave Fernandez
9-8, Edwin Montal 9-4, Bucky Souvanthong 9-5, Mike Wallace 9-1,
and on Sunday passing Tony Chohan in a tight set 9-7.
On the one-loss side Sunday, Mika Immonen and Louis Ulrich got
down to business, with Immonen progressing quickly by a final
of 9-3. Stevie Moore was also eliminated by Dennis Hatch 9-5
as Hatch progressed toward his goal of earning top honors. Hatch
then moved on to best Immonen 9-6 and found himself locked in
with Sossei in the semi-finals. It would be Sossei that would
take control of the semis to force Hatch to settle for a respectable
third place finish as Sossei wasted no time and took down mighty
Hatch handily 9-2 to have his chance at the one man that defeated
him this entire week.
In the final round (one race to thirteen), Sossei battled it
out with Archer in the approximately three hour match, but succumbed
to him by a close final score of 13-8. We look forward to seeing
quite a bit more from this up-and-coming young champion in the
year to come and congratulate Johnny Archer on being the Turning
Stone Classic X Champion.

| Dechaine wins
Joss NE 9-Ball Tour Event |
Mike Dechaine |
Mike Zuglan and his Joss NE 9-Ball Tour welcomed
a field of 40 players to Comet Billiards in Parsippany, NJ over
the weekend of January 26-27 to compete for the $5200 prize
fund.
Mike Dechaine quickly distanced himself from the field in this
one, as he went on to defeat WPBA star Karen Corr 9-6 for the
hot seat.
On the one loss side, Corr ran into a red hot Bucky Souvanthong.
Souvanthong had lost to Dechaine on Saturday, and Corr was his
last obstacle before having a chance to revenge against Dechaine.
Corr fell to Souvanthong 9-6, setting up the rematch between
Souvanthong and Dechaine in the true double elimination finals.
The first set of the finals was close all the way, with Souvanthong
taking the set 9-8 and forcing a second set. The second set
started out to be a repeat of the last one with both players
tied at 1-1, 2-2 and 3-3. As the match went on, Dechaine slowly
pulled ahead and ended up crossing the finish line first at
9-6.
This is the last Joss event before the Turning Stone Classic
X on February 21 - 24 at Turning Stone Casino in Verona, NY.
This event is full, but Zuglan is taking names for a waiting
list. Interested players should contact Zuglan at 518-356-7163
to have their name added to the list.

| Shin Young Park
Tops at Diamond Eight Billiards |
The Joss Northeast Tour dropped into Diamond Eight Billiards
in Latham, New York, the weekend of January 19th and 20th
with yet another fantastic $2000 added season event. Included
in the field of forty-five players that made their way through
the brackets were not only many top northern regional players,
but a few from outside of the area as well.
The weekend came to an end with Shin Young Park sitting pretty
atop the winners side hot seat after sending Tony Chohan to
the one-loss side in a close ending of 9-7. On the one-loss
side, Mike Zuglan was sending players home one at a time after
losing his first match to Marc Vidal. In his quest to reach
the final round, Zuglan eventually ran into Vidal yet again,
but ensured a different outcome as he bested him 9-5 which
pitted him against Chohan in the semi-finals. With a win over
Chohan of 9-7, Zuglan matched up
with Park in the true double elimination final round, where
he then took the first set from Park 9-7. Park fought back
against Zuglan in the second set and ended the event with
a 9-5 win to settle into first place.
The next tour stop will be January 26th-27th at Comet Billiards
in Parsippany, New Jersey. Also, just a quick reminder –
the Turning Stone Classic X will be held February 21-24, 2008.
If you have not already sent in your entry, time is running
out as there are only fifteen spots remaining. For more information
on this or any Joss Northeast Tour event,
please contact Mike Zuglan at (518) 356-7163 or via email
