I like the entry fee, as nobody gets hurt on $45 out of their pocket, and those are really good payouts for a one-day event. Bravo! :)
 
Yes I do. A lot of people said they would show and only two people pre-paid, so come on down and take your chances...:)

Doors open at 10 AM.

Thanks.

It would be even better in future tournaments once they are able to add money.
 
DAmn! Thought I was on the way but it appears not.

I love that pool room too.

Whoever's going...bring your snooker and 3c cues, coz this is a real pool hall!
:sad:

Walter, The 3C table will be used by me for the chart. They can still torture themselves on the snooker table if they want! And why aren't you coming? Do you have to work?

This was a great tournament but I couldn't stay until the end. Can some one post the results?
 
Results!

I would like to thank everyone that showed up yesterday for what would be the first of many similar tournaments at Big Daddy's.

We got 30 players, and quite a few new faces.

Even though we started late (1:00 PM) we were able to wrap everything up by 9:30 PM. Hopefully the wait-times were not too bad, and I did my best to keep everything moving at a reasonable pace. We were also very pleased to have Max Eberle participate. He is a true gentleman and all-around nice guy. He did snap it off but it was NOT a walk-in-the-park!

Here are the results:

1st - Max Eberle - $490.00
2nd - Ryan Jones - $280.00
3rd - Alan Duty - $180.00
4th - Rick Molineiro (room-owner) - $110.00
5th-6th - Marlon Alcaraz - $70.00
5th-6th - Dima Khvan - $70.00

I will be scheduling another tournament in the next two months...stay tuned!

Hey Curtis I thought it went over real well hope this is the start of many good ones to follow, I like the format and the 7-5 races that kept things moving quick , ya some new faces but also some who I know will participate who were not there,

The mid range entry fee should attract all level of players and as usual Rick and Cindy had the equipment ready for turny play , If u want to shoot pool and not have all the outside distractions this is the place to be

I look forward to the next one

congrats

Thanks Mark!
I will say that we may have to consider extending future tournaments to Saturday and Sunday if the turnouts improve. A lot of people who said they might show up did not and we STILL got thirty people!

So instead of having a very long one-day affair that could stretch into the wee hours, we could extend it to encompass the weekend so people feel refreshed and ready for more action on Sunday.

I also like the $45 entry free. I may increase to $50 or even $55 as we become more established, but never over $60.
The race-lengths certainly helped, and I am also considering providing a handicap for the amateur ladies, either with games on the wire or the called 8-ball.

Stay tuned.
