Sharks a plenty at MEC pool night

The industry pool sharks came out in force last night at the MEC pool competition, held last night at the aptly named Shark Hotel in Sydney.

Amid a who’s who of Aussie media sales execs Dr Mumbo understands that certain teams used ring-ins to try and help them succeed, amid fierce competition.

Rumour has it Fairfax Media even roped in a “child prodigy” of pool Paul Bates, who won a number of cue-based competitions back in the day in his native UK.

Sadly for them their star player failed to make it beyond the semi-finals.
