Pool Cue News and Review

Apparently it is indeed hard out there for a pimp. Despite earning a degree in thugonomics and a new “I will not lose” tagline courtesy of Rocawear, the Black Widow got dropped gansta style in the WPBA San Diego Classic.  So let’s tally the score here… she loses in the first round to Line who hasn’t played on the tour in two years, getting bounced to the losers bracket.  In her next game, she proceeds to lose to My-Hanh Lac and leaves the tournament without winning a single match.  I’m not taking anything away from Kjorsvik or Lac, but it seems that Jeanette as of late is more focused on scoring endorsements than actually playing pool.

To make matters worse, my dream matchup of Liz Ford and Angel Paglia went down the shitter as Paglia got skunked 9-0 by Miyuki Sakai.  The bright side though is that my two favorite girls are still in the hunt for the TV round and both look like they have reasonable path to get to the quarterfinals.

Not a good day for the hotties. Sarah lost a close 9-7 match to The Hoff and Liz got crushed by a steamrolling Monica Webb, just off a 9-2 thrashing of Morgan Steinman. That throws these two into the one loss bracket, which is turning into a virtual calendar of WPBA pinups. Along with Rousey and Ford, Jasmin Ouschan, Jennifer Barretta, Ewa Laurence, Tiffany Nelson, and Rachael Abbink (who sometimes looks unreal and other times looks well… not her freshest) are all on the one loss side.

One of the survivors of a brutal second round was Anna Kostanian, who’s playing lights out pool. Unfortunately, she’s matched up against Kelly Fisher which means we’ll likely see her on the one loss side shortly. The match I’m looking forward to though is Liz taking on Angel Paglia, assuming Angel can get past Miyuki Sakai. Holy schneikes!!
