About Michael Zimmerman
|
| Mike's pool career started at the age of 16, when he went on the road with Dave Piona and later, Cole Dickson. A veteran of the sport, he has won or placed in every major tournament in the NW, which includes British Columbia and Alberta, Canada, WA, OR, MT, and ID. Mike quit the sport twice for years at a time, due to the inability to make any 'real' money and the grueling road life of a gambler. The bug stayed with Michael though, and altogether, he has 30 years into the game. He recently won the Western Canadian/WA State 8-ball title amongst other greats like John Horsfall, Mike Vidas, Stan Tournageau, Dan Louie and Rich Geiler.
Mike's natural shooting ability, intricate safety play, banks, knowledge, and amazing power stroke shots invite comparison to many of the greatest in the game. Studying 3-cushion billiards and playing a lot of one-pocket has given him cueball control that has cultivated fans from all over. Indeed, in an artistic pool qualifier for the national championships, he finished with more points on the first day, than the 2nd place finisher from CA ended up with in 2 days! In another 9-ball tournament, against Glen Atwell, Mike was down 8-1, and Mike ran the set out to win the tournament. Watch for some exciting upsets from this talented player. Michael is married to the love of his life, Linda Carter, another player on the IPT tour.
