Chris, Kevin and Aqeel come up…

Jun 2, 2016

Shooters Snooker Club in Toronto, ON held its Amateur “2-5” 9 Ball event on the 29th of May, 2016. There were a total of 25 registered players with various handicaps. The day started off very busy as there were GPL Regional playoffs on the other end at Shooters. The Calcutta got over at about 12:00 noon and matches kicked off simultaneously. The atmosphere was a very competitive one as the “+” handicap was introduced. This made the tournament very intense as the handicaps were really close. The winner was unpredictable after all. After a couple of games, the following was the update:
A Side Final:
Kevin Lazaro vs Aqeel Mohamed
B Side Semi- Final:
Arjun Devarajan vs Chris Li
Kevin Lazaro beat Aqeel Mohamed by a score of 7-2 and was in the hot seat waiting for the winner. On the other hand, Chris Li defeated Arjun Hill- hill and was ready to face Aqeel Mohamed. Chris Li and Aqeel reached their hill game but Chris won the decisive game by beating Aqeel 6-5. Chris was on the top of his game and came all the way from behind to claim his victory over Kevin by beating him (5-0) and (5-5).
