CA Billiards for Bank Pool and One Pocket

[cabilliardclub]

I am planning a 4 day event, starting with Bank Pool (2 days) and finishing with One Pocket (2 days). My thoughts are a field of 24 for bank pool and 48 for one pocket.

My question to all the players out there, What month is a good time for this event and what would you like to see for added money and entry fee?

Please take your answers seriously, These are not just questions for the hell of it, this event will happen I would just like it to go off correctly for everyone!

Thanks for your comments,

Chris Swart, California Billiard Club

Thurday, Friday, Sat-Sun event?
or
Sat-Sun Mon-Tue event?

One Pocket on the weekend days

Summer Special maybe mid July or mid Aug.

24 x $50 = $1200 Added would be $300 for a $1500 total
Pay 6 places $500 for first.

48 x $50 = $2400 Added would be $600 for a $3000 total
Pay 8-12 places (12 places is 25% of the field) first $750

Just some quick thoughts

All I can say is, I wish I lived in Mountain View. What a great pool hall, hopefully one day I'll be able to visit.

bank pool $125 entry with $2000 added 32 players would equal a $6,000 prize pool
one pocket $200 entry with $4000 added 48 players would equal a $13,600 prize pool

bank payouts
1st-$1800
2nd-$1100
3rd-$800
4th-$650
5th-$500
6th-$500
7th-$325
8th-$325

one pocket payouts
1st-$3500
2nd-$2500
3rd-$2000
4th-$1500
5th-$900
6th-$900
7th-$500
8th-$500
9th-$325
10th-$325
11th-$325
12th-$325

THAT WOULD BE A GREAT TOURNAMENT AND DRAW A FULL FIELD OF PLAYERS FROM ALL OVER THE COUNTRY OFFCOURSE NOT EVERY POOL HALL HAS $6000 TO ADD TO A TOURNAMENT BUT AFTER THE SUCCESS OF YOUR LAST ONE POCKET WITH FULL 64 PLAYER FIELD YOU HOPEFULLY CAN KEEP STUFF LIKE THAT GOING....I WOULD MAKE THE TRIP AGAIN FOR SOMETHING LIKE THAT ESPECIALLY SINCE THERE ARE NOT MANY GOOD BANK AND ONE POCKET TOURNEYS WITH GOOD ADDED MONEY! ALSO ONE PROBLEM WITH POOL AND TRAVELLING IS THAT THE LIONS SHARE OF MONEY GOES TO 1ST AND 2ND PLACE AND WITH THIS TYPE OF PAYOUT MOST PLAYERS WOULD HAVE A CHANCE TO BREAK EVEN OR DO BETTER IF THEY WERE TO PLACE EVEN IN THE LOWER SPOTS SUCH AS 7TH-8TH OR 5TH-6TH
