Financial arrangements between players who opt out of a final match to determine a winner are rare in competition where thousands of dollars are at stake between, as an example, 1st and 2nd place. A ‘split’ is more common in regional tours and tournaments or local independent events, where the cash difference between 1st and 2nd place, divided by two, at 2 a.m. in the morning can seem insignificant to competitors who would, among other things, just as soon get back on the road to home, which can often take hours, than play a match when they’re already exhausted.
According to PremierBilliards.com’s Q City 9-Ball tour director Herman Parker, this past weekend’s (Sat., March 25) finalists at a stop on his tour, Janet Atwell and Reid Vance, chose to split primarily because while they did both have considerable distances to drive to get back to their homes, they were also friends.
