(By Mike Zuglan – Joss North East 9-Ball Tour) “Congratulations to our Turning Stone Classic XXI V 9-Ball Open Champion, Jayson Shaw ($8,000, that’s 3 in a row!), & our second chance winner Josh Ulrich ($500). Also, our $1,275 custom, engraved Joss Cue raffle winners Mike Perhach & John Morra as well as our autographed Aramith Pro Cup cue ball used in the final match winner Terry McDermot.
“The Joss Northeast 9-Ball Tour will kick off it’s 1 9th season September 26 & 27 with “The Main Event IX” at TJ’s Classic Billiards in beautiful Waterville Maine. TJ’s owners Tammy and Steve Reynolds are most deserving of our thanks for not only adding $2,000 to the event, but also allowing us the use of their great room for the weekend. Why not show your thanks by coming to TJ’s to participate in or view this great event, and also take a chance at winning a beautiful custom, engraved, collectible Joss Cue valued at $1, 700! (wait until you see this one!) You don’t even need to be present to win!! Also while at TJ’s you can enjoy some of Tammy’s home cooking and a beer or two if you like. You could even make this a mini vacation as it will be at or near peak leaf viewing season. For additional info about TJ’s or for nearby motel info please call them at 207-877-7665, and check out TJ’s Classic Billiards on Facebook.
“This event at TJ’s will consist of a $1500 added Saturday and Sunday Main Event (entry fee $120 for pro level or $70 for non pro level) and a $500 added second chance event on Sunday ($20 entry fee) for those non pro level players eliminated from the main event on Saturday.
