New Type of Weekly Break Pot/Split Hit Draw Shot Challenge

[Island Drive]

This might be cool after seeing D. Dave having to execute the split hit draw shot 67 times before he got the split hit to occur.
Give every player two chances to win the pot, put up X $ and go for it.

I think you'd drive people away from participating when they realize that the average league player, even if selected, doesn't have a chance in hell of actually doing it...

At least with a break and run, even less skilled players know they can occasionally drop a ball or two on the break on occasion ...

But it looks simple.... and Everyone can try not just the ones in the tournament.... not just the lucky person who got that one chance to do the break pot.

Put two balls frozen in the middle of the table right between the side pockets. The shooter has to shoot between them and draw back to the side pocket. I think two chances is not enough but that can be adjusted.

The average league player does have a chance to do it. Maybe one in 300 shots if they're observant enough to notice they always hit to one side and so change their aim. If they don't notice stuff like that, then they still might if their stroke adds an error in the right direction.

Most room tournaments have pretty good players takin a shot at the break pot, so this could involve the non entrants.
Charge one dollar per try, max two times, could be fun/cheap.
