Just wanting to get an idea of AZ members who will be coming out to the Marietta Billiard Club for the tournament and show in July. Who's coming to spectate? Who's coming to exhibit? Who's coming to play?

Thanks,
Rik

I will be there with an outstanding collection of high end cues.

I feel this is going to be a great tournament and cue & case show.
 
Hope to be there....

My work schedule will decide if I will have the time to watch or maybe play...

In the Scorpion Room on Friday night for the AZ Meet and Greet and the cue show on Saturday will be non smoking in that separate room. But you are right that the larger tournament room will allow smoking.
 
Due and Case show

Triple Cross Cues will have a table for displaying cues in the non- smoking Scorpion Room. Check out the website (below) for a preview of some of the available cues and come to the show and see some new additions also. They are high quality players, for the most part, and very affordable.

I look forward to seeing everyone there. Please introduce yourself and let me know you are an AZ'er so we can communicate in the future. Sign on the list there and receive TXQ updates on new cues.

Well, in that case I will be there! When I called I said I was wanting to specifically come for the Cue & Case Show, but the guy didn't mention any part being non-smoking.
 
I created an event for it on Facebook so people who don't use AZBilliards will know about it.

If you're on my friends list you should have gotten an invite, so feel free to pass it along to whoever. If you're not on my friends list, you can add me at

Any word on any more qualifying tournaments coming up for those interested? Still looking to get a ring game or little midnight madness tournament this Friday or Saturday night (or any other times)?
 
Rik,
I'll be there with two other friends. We've already paid our entry fees. They are coming to play and kick butt. Me, I'll be there just to pass a good time.

Do you know how many people have officially paid their entry fee for the GUARANTEED $15,000.00 TOURNAMENT?

Joey,

Officially Paid entrants as of last Saturday was 29 players. Unofficial put me on the list, I am coming, about 142. Checks are actually coming in daily. Kim said that three came in on Monday. I am sure we should start to see an influx of entries. Pool players like to wait till the last minute.
