She has worked on various high-profile events, including The Mosconi Cup, Derby City Classic, and the US Open. When she isn’t busy with photography, she serves on the board of onepocket.org and is on the Hall of Fame Committee for the Billiards Congress of America.

Earl and Diana are tireless advocates for pool and we are thrilled for the opportunity to help them promote and grow the sport we love.

We are excited to announce Nicole Nester has joined TTMD Billiards Streaming.

Nicole hales from Hazle Township PA. and says “I started playing pool at the local bowling alley with my friends on the weekends after that the rest was history.”

Nicole went on to join the J Pechauer Northeast Women’s Tour (JPNEWT ), finishing second in the standings for 2014. As a result, she qualified to compete in the WPBA Regional Tour Championship where she cashed, placing 17th.

Recently in the BCA Championships, Nicole finished 5/6th in 9-Ball and 9th-12th in 8 Ball as well as placing 5th in the American Cue Sports tournament. Both of these prestigious events were held in Las Vegas and are an indicator of her confidence and ability to compete at the highest level.

Thank you Nicole for joining Team TTMD Billiards Streaming.

Sponsor Spotlight; On Cue Sports Bar and Grill

Posted on May 4, 2021May 5, 2021 by Wayne Everhart

Sponsor of the TTMD Billiards Streaming 10-Ball Open Championship.

Cole and Danielle Haase the owners of On Cue Sports Bar and Grill in Front Royal, VA have been fabulous.

When we contacted them in October of last year and asked if we could host an event at their facility, they almost certainly did not know what we had in mind.

After several months of reaching out to players– pros, and amateurs alike, we felt we could pull off something special. TTMD Billiards Streaming started actively looking for event sponsors and procuring the money needed for the added 10K in prize money.

Talking with Cole we explained we were ready to move forward and began advertising the event, and he has been all in ever since. When we created the flyer for the upcoming 10 Ball tournament, we (TTMD Billiards Streaming) posted that the balls would be Aramith Pro Cup, however, that was a mistake as On Cue, uses Aramith Premier balls. Once we (TTMD) realized the error, we were going to update the graphic, but true to form, Cole said “…don’t worry about it, I’ll get in touch with Aramith and we will get Pro Cup Balls.” Then went on to ask “when should I get the tables recovered?” as he was concerned the tables might be too slippery and tough for the players. If you watched the Mosconi Cup you will recall, even the best players in the world can have a tough time with brand-new cloth and balls.

The town of Front Royal is brimming with anticipation and excitement, which is no doubt a reflection of the respect the community has for Cole. Everyone wants to see the pros come to town but they also want to see their guy Cole have a great turnout and successful event. As we draw closer it is clear to our team how much this event has gained interest, not just with the players, but with the locals. We are often approached and asked about the tournament when we are in town.

If you have not been to On Cue Sports Bar and Grill, you should plan a trip. As a pool player, you could not be happier as the nine-foot Blue Label Diamonds are kept in spectacular shape, and they play true. The food is excellent, offering a full dinner menu and light fare food after dinner hours. The bar is stocked, cold beer on tap, all served with a smile from the friendly waitstaff.

Take a day trip to the area to enjoy the outdoors, hike the Appalachian Trail, go white water rafting, tubing, or fishing. Wind down your day at On Cue Sports Bar and Grill, maybe join in on a Monthly 9-Ball tournament.

We at TTMD Billiards Streaming are extremely grateful for the opportunity to host this premier event at On Cue Sports Bar and Grill.

If you cannot make it to the event we will be providing free live stream coverage on our website.

TeamTTMD @ The Green Turtle

Posted on May 3, 2021May 4, 2021 by Wayne Everhart

This post is a bit overdue in that the tournament was held on 4/25/2021

TeamTTMD was well represented with a contingent of players, shooting in the 550 and under Fargo, 9 Ball Tournament at The Green Turtle in the Harford Mall, Harford County, MD.

It was nice to see players from all over the area coming together and supporting local tournament director Brian Kilgore. The Green Turtle has been stepping up and working hard to improve the tournament. The players were treated to new Dynasphere balls this time around.

Thank you to our teammates (SP) Mary Watkins, (SP) Nick Spriggs, (SP) Wayne Everhart, (SP) Kelly Daniel, (PR) Michelle Brigerman, (PR) Kan-Kan, and (PR) Kimberly Smith-Martin for taking the trip. Watching the team, cheering one another on was a great feeling.

Thank you Kelly Daniel and Kimberly Smith-Martin for the photos.

The event, for our team, was highlighted by an excellent run by Michelle Brigerman and Nick Spriggs.

For Michelle, this was a very special day in that this was the highest she has placed in a non-APA singles event. We are very proud of Michelle for branching out into singles tournament play. She had a great showing besting some solid shooters placing tied for 9th.

Nick Spriggs was shooting some absolute stellar pool, jumping and kicking to get out more than once. Nick said he just ran out of gas, finishing in 3rd. We are looking forward to watching Nick’s game mature. The sky is the limit for this young talent.
