🎱 **OPEN 8-BALL TOURNAMENT RECAP** 🎱
**BREWS AND CUES | OCTOBER 24TH**
What a great turnout for our Open 8-Ball Tournament at Brews and Cues!
We welcomed **34 players**, with Fargo ratings ranging from the low 400s all the way up to an impressive 760! With such a wide range of talent, the field was packed with competition, giving players the opportunity to test their skills against some of the area's toughest opponents.
🔥 **THE BOUNTY WAS ON!** 🔥
To add a little extra excitement to the event, we put a bounty on **Brandon Shuff and Jimmy Varias!** Any player who could send either of these two players to the one-loss side would earn a **FREE ENTRY into our next event!**
Well, it didn't take long for someone to collect!
In the **very first round**, Dave Goodrich stepped up and sent Jimmy Varias to the one-loss side, claiming the bounty!
👏 **Congratulations to Dave Goodrich** on taking down one of the tournament's toughest competitors and earning himself a free entry into our next event!
And despite that early trip to the one-loss side, Jimmy Varias battled his way back to finish **2nd overall!**
