My overall is ran king of the table with 1st and 2nd in each class, the right hand kings were Harold then Sterling Miles then Mike West then Anthony Snook then Wayne Burns as the winner.Its not very easy with five classes and no break. The left Harold had no trouble until Wayne tied him up in a hook for awhile but then he pined him.

Thanks for a great tournament Blaine!
Harold has improved a bit in a short time hasn't he? His sights are aimed high and he is focused.
I cant wait to see him pull at Rising Sun... Christian you coming down on the 29th?

Well I think you have pulled Harold, I figured you could gage his improvement. After all you have the strongest left arm on the planet. Only sissy's pull out of a hook..Tarvis LOL I'm not a lip reader but i think you said something along those lines to Travis when he back pressured his way out of your hook. Good TV!
Amrwrestling should be on every day!
Take care, Rick

Well we were going inside. But he was turning my hand out. I didn't load with side pressure because of it, so I caught him. Then when we were inside, I NEVER expected him to bail out that way ( he knew he was going down on the next hit ..lol ). OH WELL! He has gotten MUCH better inside...So everybody better watch out, thats IF anyone can get him inside... Seemed like Eric Woerfel was trying to bail out the same way against me in Reno, But I stopped it that time. I won't make that mistake again!

your right, I saw the tape of you and Eric.
you get them long armed top rollers in a hook best to keep them there, I find that the guys with long arms are much more comfortable on the outside when they can take advantage of arm height on top. Hook and drag, pin if you can as fast as you can. Relax the side pressure for a second and it gives them a chance to back pressure out. (Bongard is an exception, long arms and awesome inside pressure.)
Well a lessoned learned right, I learn a few every tournament.
Take care, Rick
