hot seat and sending Wali to the one lost side.
Making a run on the one lost side was Mark Pantovic with wins
over Mike Fingers 7-3, Mike "The Baby Face Assassin"
Davis 7-6 and Wali Muhammad 7-3 to get to the finals. |
| In the finals it was Matt Krah
Vs Mark Pantovic and this would have been a great match since
both players where shooting great and on top of their game but
due to personal problems Mark Pantovic could not continue so
he had to forfeit the match to Matt Krah, Giving Krah the Blaze
9 Ball Tour 9th Stop. |
