For those of you going to Derby City, be sure to drop by the 14.1 Challenge room. There should be constant action on the four tables. The prize fund will be around $26,000 this year with $19,000 added. There is an additional $1000 bonus prize if anyone breaks Jayson Shaw's record in the event of 227.
When the event first started back in 2006 I thought no one might ever run 200 on the Diamond tables but that has happened three years in a row now. Last year I think there were two 200 runs with Chris Melling taking the honors with a 225.
If you want to try your luck, entry is $100 for 12 tries to make a high run. There are daily prizes for the three highest runs, and the eight high runners for the four days of qualifiers play in a single-elimination tournament where most of the prize money is.
We will be upstairs past the action room and overlooking the main floor.
