Patrick Cepeda took first place in last Sunday\u2019s Happy Hour 8-Ball Tournament at 19th Hole, running his winning streak to three consecutive weeks.<\/p>\n
Taylor Watanabe took second. He advanced to the loser\u2019s bracket final when Luis Aldan scratched after pocketing the 8-ball. Watanabe\u2019s cue-ball placement earned a win over George Ucherbelau, but Cepeda used the same skill to take the finals. Watanabe\u2019s other loss was also to Cepeda.<\/p>\n
The tournament is double elimination following BCA rules, with sign-up starting at 4pm. The entry fee is only $5.<\/p>\n
Victor Hocog took the 9-ball honors last Thursday, overcoming a one-game handicap. He didn\u2019t drop a game in the tournament.<\/p>\n
The single-elimination tournament is a race to two, but experienced 9-ball players must win additional games\u2014as determined by management\u2014to advance.<\/p>\n
Ron Chisato took second, with Watanabe in third place.<\/p>\n
There is a $10 entry fee. Sign-up starts at 7 pm. <\/p>\n
