Brown’s Billiards, in Raleigh, NC, will host the eleventh stop of the 2009-2010 Jacoby Custom Cues Carolina Tour this weekend, June 26-27. Players of all playing ability will assemble to compare skills and compete for up to $4200 cash in the Main Event ($1000 guaranteed for first place and $1000 guaranteed added).
Brown’s Billiards is located at 5500 Atlantic Springs Rd. in Raleigh, NC (phone: 919-878-9092). It’s a great room off Spring Forest Rd. in North Raleigh. With 9 Brunswick Gold Crown III’s and one Diamond, they offer some of the best equipment in the area. Check out their website at www.brownsbilliardsofraleigh.com.
We’ll be starting things off with an Early Bird Tournament on Friday night at 7pm. Incidentally, Brown’s will still have their usual Friday night 8-ball tournament for anyone who would prefer to play in that. Register for the Main Event by 12:30pm on Saturday. Races to 7 on both sides, $65 entry fee plus registration. The Junior Tournament and Ladies’ Tournament will begin on Saturday at 11:00am. Finally, we’ll have the Second Chance Tournament at 3pm on Sunday.
All four mini tournaments (Early Bird Tournament, Junior Tournament, Ladies’ Tournament and Second Chance Tournament) will be races to 5 on both sides, one race to 7 in final, $20 entry fee plus registration. Anyone can play in the mini tournaments. However, juniors must not have their 20th birthday in 2010 and, of course, only ladies in the Ladies’ Tournament.
All tournaments (Main Event, as well as mini tournaments) on the Jacoby Tour will be double elimination (modified), rack your own, winner breaks.
If you’re planning to play multiple times on the 2009-2010 Jacoby Tour, you can still save in registration fees by purchasing a 2009-2010 tour card for only $50. Registration fees are $5 for mini tournaments and $15 for the Main Event. There are 5 more events on the 2009-2010 schedule, so you can still save with a tour card.
We’ll have a Break Contest around 1:00 on Saturday. $10 entry and anyone can play. Around 4:00, we’ll do a Break-and-Run that is now at $91 per ball!!! Only players in the Main Event can buy tickets and they’re limited to 100 tickets per player, but anyone can ‘back’ a player. Tickets are 5 - $20, 20 - $50 and 50 - $100.
As usual, I’ll have a really nice Jacoby that I’ll be raffling. Tickets are 1 - $5, 5 - $20, 20 - $50 and 50 - $100 and you don’t have to be present to win.
Congratulations to B. J. Ussery, who defeated Keith Bennett (11-7) in the final match at On The Snap Billiards in Fuquay Varina to win the tenth event of the 2009-2010 season. That makes three in a row for Ussery and four, total, for the 2009-2010 season.
The next event will be on July 24-25 at Break Time Billiards in Wilmington. Take a mini-vacation with the family and get your game on at the same time!
