Ultimate Pool Shootout North Carolina bracket

Yeah, GL Easy E.

Ultimate Pool is starting a league where I am. Gonna give it a shot and see what I think of playing it. I’ve commented before on mixed feelings about the rules but will figure them out and plan accordingly. How tough can it be to see an 8 ball pattern in seconds on a kiddie table?😉

It's really fun. The rules take a bit to remember but they all make sense for the format.

Example, 3 point break rule makes sense because it makes you break a rack wide open. If you're a better player you may have to spot someone 4+ games in a 30 minute match. This means if they were to do a straight pool break you may never have time to run 4+ racks. Overall, the rules seem to encourage good pace and more excitement than a typical 8 ball league. Plus you can figure for a 5 man team it will usually take about 3 hours at most so you're not out all hours of the night on a work night.

Our team won city wide and regional so we are going to play in this event. I'm more than excited. Weekly fees are not much, $8 where I am. We won a pool jersey with our name and team name and got $1000 for travel expenses. That's pretty good compared to any other league I've been a part of.

Congrats! Come find me and introduce yourself. I'll try to sweat your matches. Maybe you'll make the $100k!!!

So how many players on your team were spotting 4+ ?
How many were getting the 4+ spot ?
League play , like this , is a embarrassment.

Yes sir! I'm hoping the tournament room is open 24hrs. Otherwise just find an empty table and play as much as you can! I'm guessing that it will be tough to find open tables from Wednesday on. They will also be having mini tournaments if that's your thing!
