Mosconi cup to florida

[kling&allen]

Not sure what to think of this….

 

[KAP1976]

I'm biased, being on the east coast and absolutely hating Las Vegas and thinking the place is played out, so I'm happy with the move. I have no opinion on the venue since I haven't been there.

 

[Scrunge19]

I guess Iowa must have been booked full.

Long as it fills up and the arena has a good atmosphere it'll be fine? (Speaking only as a viewer though with no intention of going)

Orlando that time of yr. is pretty damn nice. Might have to grab my golf clubs and head south.

I’m no fan of Vegas either. This hotel looks pretty nice and the room rates aren’t bad ($250 night). And lots of other stuff to do in Orlando that’s not too expensive.

I've never had the chance to attend a Mosconi so this is great for me. I will definitely be attending.

It’s a great idea honestly. Super Bowl moves around. Why not pool? Only downside is not having Griffs to watch the other players hustle at night.

 

[BlueRaider]

I suspect this will sell out instantly. A lot of East Coast pool fans who have never been to a MC will travel to FL for this one. It's also an easier trip for many European fans.

 

[Atorontopoolplayer]

Playing captains is interesting?

 

[sjm]

I like Vegas and I like Orlando, so this change is just fine by me. I'm sure Matchroom will get a group rate for attendees at the hotel.

Is there any indication when tickets will go on sale?

Cue-phoria in WinterPark should be hoppin.

Cue and Racks are both about 40 minutes from the venue.

Which is odd, because Cue and Racks are about 30 minutes from each other.

I guess that's Florida traffic for you.

I'm familiar with the Hotel. Been to several conferences there, Nice rooms, pools, and good food from fine dining to fast food. Very large conference room across a walkway to the hotel. Excellent pulled pork arepas

Could this have anything to do with players getting robbed in Vegas?

 

[Bob Jewett]

I think the venue is a major step up from Bally's. Here is the resort's info on the meeting space and other stuff. 120 two-bedroom villas available along with the regular suites...

Its about Formula 1 taking over Vegas during the fall and screwing up everything for other events.

Could this have anything to do with players getting robbed in Vegas?

There is a F1 event in Vegas at around the same time making hotel rooms much higher than they would normally be, amongst other factors.

 

[ALT_ESV]

I already booked my room. They have a “cancel at least three days before the check-in for free”. It’s a no brainer even if I don’t have tickets yet. I’ve got mine…I’d recommend just pulling the trigger.

Remember that if you aren’t able to get in this hotel, Orlando means driving around…parking in another hotel down the street or getting an Uber. In Vegas, you could easily just walk from another hotel. It won’t be as easy in Orlando

Cue-phoria is never hoppin'!
