Jim G qualifies for NTRA tourney!! - Pace and Cap

RichieP · 07-27-2008, 06:43 AM

Jim finished 4th yesterday in the Colonial qualifying tourney picking up over $1,100.00 cash PLUS a coveted qualifying berth to the huge NTRA tourney at years end!!!!!

Couldn't have happened to a nicer man who is also one of the hardest working cappers there is. Nothing is easy for him. He just works his ass of and never gives up. If you look up competitor in the dictionary there is Jim's picture baby!!

Congrats and take em all down in the big one Jim

Thanks Richie,

I went from the lowest of low's to the highest of high's within a 20 second span. The Colonial Tourney only gives away free tournament entry to the big dance to the top 3 finishers. I finished 4th, $1 dollar out of 3rd thanks to a DQ earlier in the day. I was bummed. Then I found out the winner had already qualified earlier in the year. Therefore, I have now earned a spot in the NTRA tournament representing Colonial Downs.

This has been a dream of mine for years and I am looking forward to realizing it in January.

Jim
