Players
Bar 4 – Cho Cho Bar 4
This fixture on Monday 20
April in the Bangkok Pool League’s red division would not
ordinarily create much attention, with the Players Bar being clear
favorites to win. However, Cho Cho Bar, with a tactical move in mind
arrived at Players with an unexpected team that included 4 Bar-fined
Katoeys from the Nana area.
This unusual ploy of
voluptuousness and mystique clearly succeeded in unsettling the
normally dominant Players team, albeit somewhat depleted for this
match. Following some preliminary preamble and obvious concern from
the Players side, it was eventually accepted that the new look Cho
Cho Bar team was not going to present any kind of insurmountable
hurdle for the Players Bar.
The match started with
Players fielding probably their strongest player, Coach Alan Bell
against the first of Cho Cho Bar’s Katoeys. Alan clearly found
focusing and concentration somewhat uneasy as the Katoey dazzled his
big breasts and whatnot around the pool table. Fortunately for Alan
the Katoey followed the eight ball into the pocket with the Q –
ball and Alan breathed a sigh of relief for the overall win.
At half time, the Players
Bar side were holding their nerve, amongst other things and the score
was 3 – 1 to Players. The two team’s captains, Rob and Steven
huddled in separate corners of the bar to contemplate and ponder
their final four selected players. Meanwhile, the Katoeys were
strutting their stuff trying to cause as much confusion as possible.
The match re-started, and
it soon became clear that Cho Cho Bar’s ploy was beginning to
succeed. The Players Bar second half team selection was at best
bewildering, but Coach Alan Bell was called upon a second time to
hopefully clean up any mess as the final number eight player. A mess
it certainly was from Players Bar point of view as Cho Cho’s team
leveled at 3 – 3 and then went ahead 4 -3.
The final game between Cho
Cho Bar’s team captain Steven and Coach Alan Bell definitely held
some pressure, so much so, that Alan ran out the winner and
ultimately saved Players Bar any blushes. The final score being 4 –
4 on what was and unusual and highly entertaining evening.
