They upped the ante this year adding an extra 16K to the purse, making it that much more attractive for the top players. If you make the money (25th-32nd) you have a chance of breaking even. With the close payouts on top I doubt that we will see any savers at the end either. Nice to see this event continue. Combined with the upcoming Players Championship and U.S. Open, the World Ten Ball, the three other Opens this May in Vegas and Derby City, the U.S. based players have more going for them now then they've had in a long time. :thumbup:
This tournament was one of the best run events I've ever been to (certainly it had one of the toughest fields ever), and I plan on attending again in 2019! :thumbup:

This!!!! Can't believe the friggin' Mosconi!!!So first Matchroom is scheduling the Mosconi over Thanksgiving and now Pat is taking away our holy Halloween? :yikes:
We need to help Pat Fleming keep this event going.
I would like to see it remain a jewel of the stateside menu.
It's getting better, lets keep it that way.
Bump this if you see it on page 2.
And I thank you for Pat...….
It's some kind of pagan festival involving minors being trained to commit extortion and the perverted torture of innocent squash plants. And witches with cats. I think Hallmark started it.
Monday is always a good day for a bump.....
Across Halloween? Been going to the USOpen for 10 years and the International last year.
Won't be going this year as I don't want to miss Halloween with my kids and my Mother's birthday. Hope this doesnt end up being the new norm.
