Super Billiards Expo 2019, nearly all amateur events sold out?
- Thread starter ctyhntr
- Start date
Yep, I got an email that there were maybe 20 entries left in the open event a few days ago. I think last year it was full also, but I don't know about if every event was full.
Basically that thing is like Derby City for non-pros on 7 footers so I can see the attraction, plus a cue show on the side.

I wish they still had one pocket and three cushion, but I understand why they went away.
Id guess it's more profitable to rent the space to additional exhibitors or have more amateur events. Allen likes his $$ and im also going to guess 85% of his annual income comes from this 5 day thing thing- $250K minimum imho
I’d guess the scheduling issues with the 1p and length of the matches were more the issue.
It was a limited field to begin with and always had problems if they players were in the open /pro event.
The 3cushion was not run by allen. It was there last year, but not on the website. Haven’t heard myself whether it is there or not.

So you don’t like $$$ lol you just go to work for fun? God forbid he make a profit right. Lol
He tried other events but they never had the venders and pro’s and just things to keep you there for the weekend when your out of the tournament .
Of course i want him to make $$-We wouldnt have the event if he didn't make $$-Im
only pointing out, he just has those 4-5 days to do it and he is not going to be sentimental about anything, he is goinng to maximize his profit especially since his commentator gig of many years with ESPN is gone for the most (if not the whole) part.
They got rid of them to give more table time/tourney room for women's events.
That was straight from Allan's mouth to me.

Why do the pros wait until the last minute to sign up. As of this morning Thorsten was the only name that I recognized.
