Inter Professional Bodies (IPB) Games 2012 - Pool

The continuing saga of the IPB Games 2012 (the futsal competition was covered in a post on 13 May 2012).

After the first two events (futsal and darts), the Surveyors led (by virtue of 2 second places) followed by the lawyers and the accountants (each had one first place and one last place!) The third event, Pool, took place this afternoon at Bowlrama.

The game was 9 Ball Pool ...

... race to 3 in the round-robbin portion this afternoon, followed by the semi-finals and final tomorrow.

Bowlrama, located at the Hilltop area, had sufficient pool tables for this event. But on normal days, many of the players tend to smoke.

This event was under the charge of the Architects, their "Captain" gave a briefing before the networking snacks and refreshment session prior to the start of the competition.

The players enjoyed themselves (Doctors vs Engineers) ...

... "Just pot that green 6-ball, and leave the cue ball nicely on the brown 7-ball for me!".

Hey, the referee was a paid professional! The players in red are the mixed double team for the Accountants. We won 3-2 both against the Doctors and the Engineers; courtesy of both deciding matches won by our mixed double team.

UPDATE 24 June 2012, After the semi-finals and final match, the overall winner were the Accountants (Yay!). The Engineers came second. The third and fourth placing was still being decided by the mixed double match (when I left the venue) between the Surveyors and the Architects!
