Allen Lights Up Syracuse in Undefeated VictoryBy Bill RosenbergerCap's Cue Club is the oldest poolroom in Syracuse, NY, hosting 27 years of billiards.  Timmy Allen wanted to make sure he left his mark there, too, defeating Jim Forsythe 7-5 in a CNY 9-Ball Tour stop.The $350-added event housed 42 players o­n October 2-3, including Allen, who was dominant throughout the tournament.  He breezed through many of the early matches and then prepared for some tougher competition in the latter stages of the final day.Allen faced off against Forsythe in the hot seat match and proved the better player, winning 7-1.  Bruce Carroll matched up against George Kortary in the quarterfinals, with the match going hill-hill.  Carroll prevailed to advance to the semifinals against Forsythe.  In a tough match-up, Forsythe emerged over Carroll and headed to the finals against Allen.Tournament director Mike Renshaw described Forsythe as a "fighter" and a "player that doesn't give up."  Those characteristics came through in the finals, as Forsythe forced the match to 5-5.  Apparently Allen just wanted it more-in the twelfth game, he sank the 3 ball and never missed again, finishing off Forsythe 7-5.  Results:1st Timmy Allen $4502nd Jim Forsythe $2403rd Bruce Carroll $2004th George Kortary $1605th Jose Mendez, Pao Xiong $1207th Steve Countryman, Dwight Dixon $809th Gary Empey, Mike Carelli, John Ferrara, Jim McMahon $40 Visit InsidePOOL for the latest news from the CNY 9-Ball Tour, billiards and pool.
