Some of the ‘bigger’ guns who’ve trekked to Oaks, PA to participate in the 29th Annual Super Billiard Expo (SBE) this weekend (April 13-16) got to sit out the first day of competition yesterday (Thursday) for the Open Nine Ball Professional Players Championship. There were 16 competitors out of 56 entrants who were seeded, the top eight were awarded opening round byes; Jayson Shaw, Earl Strickland, Shane Wolford, Jonathan Pinegar, John Morra, Jose Alberto Delgado, Warren Kiamco and Jonas Souto. They’ll join the 24 competitors who played and advanced in the event’s opening round during the day yesterday (Thursday) and well into the night of Day One. They’re all playing in a new format that hasn’t been seen at the SBE Players Championship in at least a decade; single elimination, races to 5, with players looking to win the best of five potential sets.
