Pahrump Bowler Rolls Three Perfect 300 Games at No-Tap Singles Tournament

Mike Kintzer brought something rarely seen at any bowling tournament last Saturday, rolling three consecutive perfect 300 games in Division "G" at the Pahrump Valley 500 Bowling Club's 8-9 Pin No Tap Singles tournament at the Pahrump Nugget Hotel and Casino.

The feat gave Kintzer a 900 scratch series and a $35 Scratch Side Pot payout, topping that leaderboard by a wide margin. In the main standings, he led Division "G" outright.

Kintzer was not the only one posting perfect games. Mike Mundt, Joe Balmores, Daryl Lasky, Howard Pillman, and Marc Levy each recorded two 300 games in Division "G." Mundt's 300-277-300 scratch series earned him $27.50, while Balmores posted 270-300-300 for $22.50 and Lasky's 267-300-300 brought him $15. Marc Levy finished with 245-300-300 for $12.50 in the Scratch Side Pot.

Division "R" also produced perfect games, with Sherry Levy posting a 296-300-248 scratch line good for $10 and Katherine Bishop opening her series with a 300. Additional single 300 games in Division "G" came from Jim Spear, Randy Stout, Zid Cabuena, Tim Whitfield, Dale Bystedt, Shaun Upton, and Jim Reynolds.

In the main payouts, Janet Hansen led all listed finishers with games of 274, 296, and 267 for a 1,004 total and $21. Deb Mallory was close behind at 1,000 for $20, followed by Babs Woosley at 983 ($19), Randy Stout at 976 ($18), and TJ Adriano at 970 ($16). Doug Tarver posted 967 ($15), Vince Allison 961 ($13), and Tim Morlan 956 ($10). Daryl Lasky, Katherine Bishop, and Randy Gulley rounded out the paid positions at 953 ($9), 947 ($7), and 939 ($5), respectively.
