In another featured match this evening, speedy Canadian player Luc Salvas met Sacramento resident Tony Chohan.  They had a tight match, but ultimately "Machine Gun" Luc won, with the score 11-9.  2002 U.S. Amateur runner-up Scott Tollefson had a great match against Ronnie "Everything's Funny When You're Winning Big Money" Wiseman, who recently came in second at the Capital City Classic over Labor Day weekend.  Tollefson, who received a free entry into the U.S. Open when he took second at the Amateurs, played excellently and defeated Wiseman 11-6.  Scott Frost almost got freezerburn in his match against Virginia resident Ron Zampko, coming back from a 5-2 deficit to squeak by with an 11-8 victory.  High-rolling Tony Watson gave Francisco Bustamante all he could handle in their match, taking an 8-6 lead before Bustamante turned the tables and won 11-9.  And Earl "The Pearl" Strickland escaped in his match with New York local Robb Saez in their hill-hill match, winning 11-10.
