I am wondering if anyone else caught this in an email we received on the 24th (I believe everyone received this email, not just IPTers):
Coming in first or second in the qualifier earns you entry into the IPT North American 8-Ball Open Championship. Over $2 million dollars in prize money will be given away at the North American Open. First place is $350,000. More importantly, last place is $2000...even if you don't make a single ball! Also, any non-IPT member who places in the top six in the IPT North American 8-Ball Open Championship will earn automatic invitations to play in the 2006 IPT Players Championship and IPT Masters Championship. Over $5 million in prize money will be given away at these two championships.
If that is really $5M instead of the $2.7M listed on the website, then maybe that is the great news they are going to announce soon.
Was that a typo or are they really adding more money to the 3rd and 4th events?
