$100,000.00 of ADDED MONEY!

Is that a typo? $500-$600 a night. That seems unreal expensive.
I may have to check with 23 and me to see if I have a little Native American in me. My mom always said that her grandmother was part Cherokee.

Last time I was there in like 2011 for a WPBA/Seminole Tour Final it was $200+ or so a night on a tournament rate. Plus some crazy security deposit (I want to say it was $500). I don't remember the specifics but do remember thinking "This is worse than Vegas"

The upside is its one of the best venues for a tournament I have ever been to. Great hotel and awesome convention area for the tournament. If they can find a way to get the room rate halfway reasonable it should be a good event. No matter what its good to see the Seminoles get back into pool at the Hard Rock.

Vivian is more than welcome to use our forums to promote this great event. We love players who "do" rather than just "discuss". Viv makes things happen!

This is the best thing that's happened to pool since the IPT as far as money payouts, IMO.

And not only do I hope to see Vivian post on this forum, I can't wait until she does. Bravo to Vivian!

Agree with you Jam :thumbup2:

Good going, Seminoles! If I am reading correctly, this is actually 9 events, as follows:



Scotch Doubles (Jack & Jill) -- $25,000 added

Men's Pro 10-Ball -- $25,000 added

Women's Pro 10-Ball -- $25,000 added



Men's Amateur 9-Ball -- $5,000 added

Women's Amateur 9-Ball -- $5,000 added



Native-only Men's 8-Ball -- added money not stated

Native-only Women's 8-Ball

Native-only Men's 9-Ball

Native-only Women's 9-Ball

So a pro player would be eligible to play in two of the events, with a combined $50,000 added.

Well, John Morra could enter four events (add the Native 8 and 9 ball). Are there other top pros who qualify?

Yes, I should have said "Most pro players ..."
