2012 One Pocket Hall of Fame Dinner

Congratulations to our new Hall of Fame inductees!

The class of 2011 inductees into the One Pocket Hall of Fame were feted by a big crowd at the annual HOF dinner held during a break in the Derby City Classic tournament at the Horseshoe Casino in Elizabeth, Indiana. The legendary champion Cecil ‘Buddy’ Hall was one of two great players inducted this year. Representing the west coast school of players, ‘San Jose Dick’ McMorran was also welcomed into the One Pocket Hall of Fame. McMorran was unable to attend, but he was represented by fellow west coast player John Henderson, who spoke on his behalf.

In the Bank Pool category, Nick Varner became one of just a handful of players to be honored for both One Pocket and Bank Pool.

Instead of a Lifetime Pool in Action award, this year we had a special living tribute to Grady Mathews.
