Greentop Billiards, Rocky Mount, NC’s newest poolroom, will host their first Jacoby tournament this weekend, November 21-22, as they welcome players from far and wide to compete for up to $4200 cash in the Main Event ($1000 guaranteed for first place and $1000 guaranteed added).
Greentop, located at 1948 Stone Rose Dr. ((252) 454-0152), picked up two more Diamonds a few weeks ago at the U. S. Open. They now have 4 Diamonds and 5 Brunswicks and have become something of a hangout for road players looking for action. The owner, “Shaq”, is really excited about hosting the Jacoby Tour.
We’ll be starting things off with an Early Bird Tournament on Friday night at 7pm. 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 save quite a bit 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 14 more events on the 2009-2010 schedule, so you can really 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 $56 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 1 - $5, 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 Mike Davis, who defeated Arnold Hamlet (11-6) in the final match at Shooters in Greensboro to win the first event of the 2009-2010 season. Mike went undefeated and earned $1000 for first place, while Arnold settled for $500 and second place
The next event will be at Sharks-N-Shooters in Rocky Mount on December 12-13. A frequent host of the Jacoby Tour, Sharks will be ready for another great event! I am still working on the tour schedule, but it should be complete within the next week. For your convenience, the entire schedule is listed at the bottom of this message.
I look forward to seeing you this weekend at Greentop! - Doug
