I'm getting ready to go play in a big pool tournament today for 8-ball and 9-ball that I qualified for. I'm very nervous! Its not a team thing and the winner goes to Phoenix to compete. Its single elimination, so if I loose once, I'm out. Either way, its gonna be a great experience, but I'm really nervous so I had to post. Wish me luck!!!!!
