Hello everyone,
I am holding my 2nd annual U.S. Open qualifier at Pockets Pub and Pool in Tallahassee, Florida. The dates are September 18th, 19th, and 20th. This is an open event. Races are 7W-5L with the final a race to 13. There will be $1,000.00 added.
The buy-in this year is $125.00. That covers greens fees and a player buffet for the duration of the tournament. This year promises to be bigger and better. I plan on sending 6 players to the U.S. Open 9ball Championship in Chesapeake, Va. The above is based on a 64 player field.
I have been fortunate in that Delta-13 racks is the official rack this year. If you see Terry post on AZB give him a shout out, He is good people. John from Kamui tips has come through and is now a sponsor for the event. Robin Dodson has become a sponsor as well. She donated a Drake Bell cue and case for the United Way. Many thanks to these folks.
Tom from Triple Cross Cues will be there for repairs and such. He also has some fine cues that will be presented, should you want to purchase one. If you would like a preview of his cues send me a note and I will send you the link to his site. Gene and Renee' from Crown Cues will be in attendance as well. They were kind enough to support this event.
Blackjack David Sapolis will be doing a benefit for the United Way of the Big Bend. He is going to hit 10,000 balls Friday and Saturday raising money for a local charity. He starts around noon on Friday til midnight. Saturday will be another noon start and he will go until he reaches his goal. I will put a link up for donations. We are helping the kids that need it. Some of the kids that United Way works with, will be making pool related artwork to auction off to the guests. I am going for, them, helping us, help them.
This event will be streamed live as it happens. I hope to have two or three different people stream this event. Local television and most media outlets will be present.
The only dress code I ask is, no asses hanging out. Thank you. I am sure I speak for all of us. Dress nice folks.
There are plenty of rooms around the area. I have a special rate from extended stay of $44.99 a night.
Call me or send me a note and let me know your plans.
Thank you all and I look forward to seeing everyone there.

It just keeps on pouring out of the skies! But, the temps are in the upper 70's to lower 80's in the daytime, so... other than the humidity, it's been bearable.
