There doesn't seem to be much buzz about this event. How players did they get for the Bank Pool Tournament?

Anyone have updated pictures?
$20,000 added total
John,
Each US Open events are $5,000.00 added guaranteed, with no minimum requirement. Mark promised to add $5000.00 for up to 50 entires and $100.00 per person exceeding the 50. That is $20,000.00 added total. The sign up list is pretty small right now, but with the added money, it's definitely worth the swing, I say.
Especially if you're already there.

I just got back from a quick visit to the Q-lympics I was only there for about two hours. I drove to Louisville from Indy for a Dr. appointment for my son Cash (8 yrs old). He is fine, so we decide to go over to the east side to check out the action. I saw some great players Ike Runnells, Gabe Owens, Mark Jarvis right when I walked in the door but there were lots and lots of empty tables. Shannon Daulton was getting ready to play Brian Gregg a tournament match in the Action Room.
BTW: Justin and Big N get to pick tournament matches that are being played in the Action Room and they are taping these matches, same as the TV table at the DCC. So that is great for the TAR library. However there are not many people at the tournament and that is bad news for the promoter.
My son bought a case from Robin Bell which had her son's name embroidered in the pocket. He is Drake from the Nickelodian TV show. Cash is now more interested in pool so that was a great thing. I think Robin Bell is going home due to low turn out.
I also bought a Porper burnisher from a vendor. I was told I was the first customer today. This was at 6 PM. I walked down the way and bought a pocket chalker and a Q Claw. I was told I was the 2nd cusotmer.
I think the entry fees and the spread out nature of the tournaments has been a detriment to the Qlympics. I really hope the promoter comes out alright but it is not looking good so far.
Now for the better news. The Action Report room looks great. Also I know the Action Report is selling quite a few seats for the upcoming action matches and I bought a VIP seat myself for the straight pool with John S and Danny H. I will be there on Thurs night.
While in the Action room I saw and spoke with Richard Harris of Blue Grass cue fame (he is still not taking orders I will keep asking). Also while in there I bought a T shirt and the DVDs of the Shane and Corey match from Justin and Big N. I also plan on buying the PPV for the Strickland and SVB match coming up. It looks like they will have two cameras and I believe we will be able to switch our views during the match. The last match had excellent streaming video.
I spoke with Justin of the TAR and I think he said the pay per view was $25 but this would cover all of either the action all around or the 2nd action challenge. So for 25 buck you could see 3 days of action. I will have to say that is a substantial improvemnts over the first challenge where you had to pay for each day.
For them to not go way in the hole I think they need to sell about 300 views. I hope anybody that wants to see some good well produced pool action from the comfort of home please support this as I would like to see more of the same myself. Anybody out there lets try to support these guys, we only need 6 views per state in U.S. for them to break even and I know it will be a good value.
I think there will be some action at the QLympics later in the week as the weekend comes around but it was pretty slow on Monday night. Also on the weekends they are going to stay open around the clock.
Good Luck Qlympics

As we wonder, Justin is cutting away at hours of footage. Hopefully it will be up soon.
Sunny
Actually I did check out the video and greatly appreciate it. However...my real concern is are there any people there to purchase some stuff
Or participate in the tournaments for that matter.
Hoping to pick up...
You're right. It was pretty dead but hoping to pick up when the pro events kick off and when the Action Challenges get on it's way.

Seems to me that the schedule needs to be altered. November might be too close to the DCC for people to be able to take time away from responsibilities to attend and the WPC conflict has to be a big problem with attendance.
Mark Griffin has done a lot for pool and I hope he can get this off the ground. Could the pool world support a summer event?

Thanks for the results, iceman!
Because it is three weeks long - that's what made it tough for me. I had 5 tournaments to choose from while the Qlympics was going on, but I did look into it and was very interested, but choose the tournaments closer to home.
As for the married couples, I know Bonnie and Mark Coats took firsts in a mens/womens event, but I believe that was the McDermott Tour.
Congrat's to you and your husband, Jacqueline!

I wish mark the best with this event,
I see a couple problems, first alot of players are in Asia now so that dilutes things and I think its a bit too long, and its a tough time of year before the holidays and just after summer.
I hope it picks up for them. I would love to see it come off as a success.
