Guy on my Team went down to Mississippi to play in their monthly tourney. He didn't play well, but the guy he got in the Calcutta did...He said he won over 7 grand!
He was very complimentary of the tourney, even though according to him it was very crowded with 179 players. He said there were probably 6-7 guys there who played "Hennesse Speed" , including the winner, and about 25 guys there who play a ball or so under that speed...pretty good competition for a small Mississippi town. He also said there was a 40k in the middle match, but I forgot who the players were.
How common are local tourneys with this kind of payout and calcutta? Maybe it's normal, but it just seemed like this is pretty significant for a monthly barbox tourney in a small southern town. Seems like a smart fella with 700 ish FR would have chance to scratch out some decent cash just playing these type tourneys around the southeast.
