Room owner Chris Szuter is hanging tough, having sent tough players such as Bob Maidhof, Tony Crosby, and current U.S. Open champion Jeremy Jones over to the west side of the chart.  He will match up with Jose Parica in the other winners’-bracket match.  Parica buzzed through the chart, dealing Martin Rimlinger, Teddy Garrahan, Jimmy Reid, and Tony Robles losses.

Still fighting for life in the o­ne-loss side, Canada champion Luc Salvas will play the winner of the match between Tommy “TK” Kennedy and Jeremy Jones o­n Saturday evening.  Petroni will meet Johnny Archer in the other o­ne-loss side match.  After Saturday's matches, there will be four players remaining.  The final match is set to start at 2:30 p.m. o­n Sunday.
