McDermott All American Tour Results from Miller Time BilliardsThe first billiard stop of the 2006/2007 McDermott All American Tour (produced by the American CueSports Alliance – ACS) featured a $500-added purse and thirty-nine players, hosted by owner Terry Anderson at Miller Time Billiards in Davenport, Iowa, on Saturday, October 14. The event featured double-elimination 8-ball on bar boxes, and Rodney Flenoi of E. Moline, Illinois ran undefeated through the field. In the hot-seat match, Flenoi – rated a “5” on a regional handicap system used - clipped Rich Bideaux (Moline, IL), also rated a “5”, 5-4. In the loser’s bracket semifinals, Mark Nelson [5] (Bettendorf, IA) eliminated Tommy Hernandez [6] (E. Moline, IL) 5-2. Nelson then eliminated Bideaux 5-3 in the loser’s bracket finals to share the final’s seat with Flenoi. Flenoi did not want to go to a second set, so he took out Mark Nelson 5-3 in the first set of the finals.
By virtue of Mark Nelson claiming second and being the highest-finishing ACS member, he qualified for a free singles entry into the 2007 ACS Nationals in Las Vegas – courtesy of the ACS. Congratulations are also extended to 71-year old Gary Norman (4) who placed 5th and to 13th-place Rachel Byrket (4), the highest-placing woman.
