i am curious how 14.1 was decided
For such a big event, the payouts are a well kept secret. Makes you wonder why.

Jay, you say this every single tournament, like 5 hours after the final. You know how slow things move in the pool world. And you know the full results will be on AZ's money board in a "standard" amount of time for the pool world, like they have been for every single prior DCC that ever occured.
The results of the 14.1 George Fels Challenge were sad, to say the least.
Mika was undefeated, waiting for SVB and Lee Vann Corteza to play their match. The winner of that match would face Mika for the title.
Unfortunately, SVB and Lee Vann decided not to play their 14.1 semi-final match, but rather to concentrate on 9-Ball.
So the Championship was given to Mika. He won $7500.
Lee Vann got a bye in the 9-Ball Championship and Shane went down and out in 9-Ball. Later, Lee Vann also was eliminated in 9-Ball.
It was sad to see 14.1 treated again like a stepchild at DCC.
After the event, Dennis Walsh and Bill Maropulos announced that they will no longer run the 14.1 event at DCC.
Most tournaments show the prize money well before it is complete and while the event is still in progress! So I'm not sure what "slow things" you are talking about, or what the "standard" amount of time is that you speak of.
Only in the Bigfoot and the 14.1 Challenge did we know what the players were actually playing for. What we do know about the three main events is what the first prize was and that's what got my attention. With larger fields then ever before why hasn't the prize money for first gone up? Maybe you have the answer for that as well.
I don't have an answer, but I'd bet the prize fund is unchanged from last year.
The DCC and everything associated with Diamond Billiards is very, very, low tech. Their website is rarely updated. They won't record scores to submit to Fargo. Their tournament system was programmed 10 years ago and hasn't been improved since. So to think you will get the results in 5 hours is a bit of a stretch.

Here on the main page is a small write up about the one pocket finals and the tournament progress as of that time. It includes top 3 payout amounts for the one pocket and 9 ball. So the information is there, just not distributed yet for us to easily see it.

I looked up Busty's one pocket winning from 2018, and it was 12,000 USD. For 2019, according to the article I linked above, his winning for one pocket was also 12,000 USD. If the other payments deeper were made higher or distributed further, none of us will know until the results are published.

Dude you are carrying on like a pool detective:sorry:
Oh there has been a thread over at 1pkt.organization about the Galveston trnmnt. You might want to post there about how poorly ran that was And how you could have saved it.
You can add positively to almost any conversation about pool tournaments why don't you try that?

So I have to be a pool detective to ask what someone won after a tournament has ended? Interesting. Maybe, just maybe, I have a piece of someone's action so it is important for me to know how they did money wise.
There were a lot of people knocking this event prior to this, making comments on the location, the amenities, the food choices available etc. but I never said boo about any of that. DCC is what it is, a pool get together much like Johnston City where the tournament can take second fiddle to the action surrounding it. I don't want to get into the fact that while action is encouraged there, it is also made to be kept under wraps from the same people who provide the location for this event. That in itself is interesting when you think about it. This casino depends on this event to bring them revenue and a lot of it. They should be protecting the event as best they can, working closely with the promoters to make it work for all the participants.
I figured this was your reason for the ?.
I never stated that before as I thought you were smarter then dealing with people you dont/cant trust.

Trust, but verify. :wink:
Wow -- you mean even with $7500 on the line and down to the semifinals, two players passed??? I don't understand that at all! I know the DCC Tournament desk works hard to accommodate match schedules to avoid conflicts, so I would not think that was what it was.
It is ironic since the straight pool this year featured the highest run, and highest averages ever!!
Sorry to hear this!!!
AZB must get the full results because those winnings are always included in the player winnings tally that you can look up in the AZB player database. So it has to be coming...
I hope to see a full list soon too.
Used to always be a few unknowns who'd go pretty deep, but that seems to have not happened this year in any of the events.

Jay,
Here are your 2019 Derby City Classic Champions: Sky won $20K for Master of the Table, $16K for 9-Ball, and $8K for the Bank Ring Game, total $44K.. Billie won $10K for the Banks. Busty won $12K for the One-Pocket. Chang won $16K for the Bigfoot. Mika won $7.5K for the 14.1. These are the same payouts as in 2018. I don't know the rest of the payouts, but they should be published shortly.
With his finishes in One-Pocket and Banks, Skyler should take home about $50K.
