The Scorpion and South Dakota Kid were sitting pretty after an undefeated run in the 8-Ball Doubles
New Iberia, LA: USA #1 Johnny Archer and USA #3 Shane Van Boening proved to be a formidable duo in the round robin stage of the 3rd Annual DP Poison Pro Classic. Archer and Van Boening were the only undefeated team, winning all four of their matches.
The South Dakota Kid and the Scorpion started off slow as they trailed a young gun team of Tommy Najar and Dustin Boyd 4-1. But they came back strong with a 8-4 win. Then they took out Mika Immonen & Rodney Morris 8-5, followed by a tough 8-7 win over Shawn Putnam and Jeff Beckley. Finally they dusted off Thorsten Hohmann and Charlie Williams 8-3 to finish their round robin stint unscathed.
At right, Charlie Williams and Thorsten Hohmann finished 4th
Jeff Beckley of Indiana and Shawn Putnam of Georgia made a odd pairing that worked well as they toppled Hohmann and Williams 8-6 and then another upset over Morris and Immonen 8-5. Hohmann/Williams were only able to score one win 8-3 over Najar/Boyd to finish 4th.
