Does anyone know what time match play starts on Sunday?

Big names (S Frost, TRex, Kang, K Davenport, R Morris, EFREN, C Compton ect) All 11-13 handicaps in the tourney along with 3-9 Handicaps. 7' Diamonds. The prize ($100.00 entry 10k add)) and Cal i heard was 468k. 4 of my in-house league players are in it. One plays Chohan first match at a 7-11 race.
 
I heard 375 players. And it’s supposed to be a two day tournament. Lol. Good luck with that

7 foot tables for pros is like the PGA playing golf on a putt putt course.
7 foot tables should for league caliber players and bangers only.

Would be nice but that's fantasyland stuff. Most pool in this country is played on 7ft tables. Don't like it don't play but there is a LOT of $$ to be won playing on them. WAY more than on big tables. I've seen a lot of calcuttas in the $40,000+ range on bb's. Never seen one on a big table.

Is this the one at BigTyme in Miss? Or is it in Birming? How does it work? Brackets don't make much sense.

Not nearly as tough as a 9 footer.
I played 9 ball on a 7 foot Diamond(standard pocket size?) and it was so easy it was boring.

I know a few ladies and gents that will be in line to give you some EASY money!

Make sure you bring a fat wallet just in case.

Who are the "pro's" in this event? I dont see any.

And yet, not a single set will be run out

thats because they cant shoot on 9 ft ... if you can play on a 9ft table ... 7ft table just not enjoyable .. at least for me

You're a funny guy! 🤣🤣

SVB must play terribly on a 9ft since one of his favorite games is bar box 8ball. Probably couldn't even make a ball on a 9fter by this logic 😑

Plenty of APA leagues play on 9ft tables, even though the championships is a 7ft.

Interesting format. Been watching these gain in popularity and size for the last year ish. I’m from southern kentucky. I barely play at all anymore but I do know several of these players having played against them and then know of many more like any player/fan would.
I don’t recall any player ever repeating as winner in these type of events-I’m sure the folks have worked hard to rank these players.
for the most part, true 550 Fargo type players play as 3’s, 650ish Fargo as 6’s just for a reference.

interesting for sure with a total prize pool approaching 1/2 a million-probably the biggest prize most any of these players have ever played for…
