We are planning to start a Wednesday Straight Pool League at Red Shoes, starting September 5, 2012. Unlike the Monday night league, it is a non-handicapped league. Everyone plays everyone straight up. Obviously, some of the more experienced and more talented players will have an advantage, but for our purposes, this is not important. This is not going to be a big moneymaking league for anyone. It will give many of the players an opportunity to play and learn more by having to compete at a higher level.
One game per week to 125. $10 per player entry fee per week, half of which goes to the house. You get $5.00 for each win. I guess it is a way for the better player to get some of his money back, but one could view that as a teaching stipend to the better player. The additional $5 out of each match will go into a pot and at the end of the session, we will have a tournament. At this time, we are reserving the right to have some handicap aspect to this tournament. We also are reserving the right at this time to get an additional small entry fee to this tournament to fatten up the purse. This is a work in progress and we will figure it out as we go along.
Make-ups MUST be made up within two weeks of scheduling or there will be a forfeit against the player who originally could not make it and the entry fee will have to be paid.
Not sure how many players we are going to allow in, but we have ten already headed by Local Straight Pool Stalwarts,Jeffrey Mohl and Ed Latimer. Pm me if interested.
