The results of today’s King of the Hill tournament:
Match #1: Marcus Joe def. Ralph Marple 205-205*
Match #2: Joe def. Harry Thibeault 192-184
Semifinal: Joe def. Chuck Gerlach 255-189
Final: Brian Egan def. Joe 255-183
King: Egan def. Tom Hedding 216-195
* Marcus Joe won a ninth and tenth frame roll-off with 50 (Ralph didn’t finish the roll-off because he had been shut out.)
Marcus Joe received 22 pins handicap per game.
There were 19 entries, with a cut to the stepladder of 457. There was one extra match in the stepladder because of a tie for fourth, but only four positions paid.
The “king” match turned into a carry contest late, and Brian got the better of the carry with a four-bagger in the middle of the game. I was half hoping to be able to say TomTom had a chance to run the table next week.
