Ian Costello worked his way through the o­ne-loss side of the bracket during the weekend to arrive in the semifinals and play Clowery for third place.  Clowery, who reportedly has been exceptionally ill throughout the event, suffering from chills and fever, pulled through and won the match 9-6, going o­n to the rematch with Sambajon. 

The finals were tied 5-all when Sambajon, who won the Joss event two weeks ago at Spot Shots Billiards in Portland, Maine, caught fire and o­nly allowed his opponent o­ne more game before winning the final match 9-6.  Tournament director Joe Tucker reported, "His last break was as good as anybody in the world could possibly ask for.  Santos was rock solid."

Next week, the Joss Northeast Tour will be holding a $5,000-added event at The Color of Money Billiards in Niagara Falls.
