Derby city so few Pros

[trob]

there are so many tournaments nowadays that the attendance will flatten out at most of them. both spectators and entrants.

This.. they just don’t need it anymore

The only important question is, has anyone seen Strong Arm there? Is he still holding Jeanette's cue for her while she gambles?

I am on light duty for a while and was thinking about purchasing access to the DCC but since the pay options didn't suit me I passed. Now I don't think I even care. I did not realize it wasn't like years past when anyone who was anyone was there. Oh well...

Adios.

The Derby isn't really about the pros. It's about the high level amateurs testing themselves and potentially being able to play a big name. That and the action. As has been mentioned before, there are a number of pro players not at this event, but all three tournaments filled up and had long waiting lists. Player attendance won't really ever be an issue with the Derby, no matter who complains about it.

Is there anywhere to see the brackets ?

 

[jax_joe]

Are you involved with the streaming of the DCC?

Not at all

 

[Brookeland Bill]

Is it me or are there significantly fewer pros at derby this year, what am I missing ?

The transmission on Digital Pool is terrible.

You need an encrypted filter to block the carpets.

To the pros this place is a job.

"Piece uh work" as they say in the movies.

Maybe they got sick of no food? hahaha.

I haven't been since 2017. Is the food situation better now?

I don't think derby is a WNT ranked and pointed tournament anymore, so less "pros" attending this?

There are no brackets. There’s a redraw after every round. Try going to digital pool and they may have the draw/ results.

 

[iusedtoberich]

Brackets are all at digital pool now. No longer hosted at DCC's website in a scrolling list.

 

[jasonlaus]

Brackets are all at digital pool now. Now more at DCC's website.

And its impossible to look at them on a phone. Sucks

I just tried. Way too much info trying to get on the phone screen, imo. The old system was archaic, and didn't update half of the years, but it was at least readable.

don't think that is a major factor. it may matter a little bit, but going there and not playing banks / 1p / possibly bigfoot doesn't make much sense either
