The third stop on the new Joss NE 9-Ball Tour's season was held at Comet Billiards in Parsippany, NJ on October 27th and 28th with a field of 39 players competing for over $5000 in prize money. The first two stops were notable in that they each saw first time tour winners come out on top. This stop continued that streak.
The winners side came down to tour director Mike Zuglan and Joey Kong for the hot-seat. This match was won by Kong 9-8.
On the one loss side, Karen Corr was crushing her opponents and Zuglan ended up her next victim by the score of 9-5.
The finals between Kong and Corr saw Kong race out to a quick 7-0 lead. The players traded games to take the score to 8-1 before Corr made her run. Corr won five straight games to only trail by two at 8-6, but that was as close as she would get as Kong won the next game for the 9-6 win.
Kong earned $1300 for his first win on tour, and Corr settled for $900.
