Seems like a good deal to me. If I lived closer I might be tempted to pick up my stick again. Good luck guys I hope you have a great event.
 
Thanks! Hopefully we'll be in your area soon. Where you from?

Dan...How come all you do is come on here and advertise your league? You never list who wins, who and how many in the field, and never publish payouts. Seems like if you wanted to grow your league, people like to know those things. Just sayin...

WSOPool Tournament Progress...

Well, we think our first set of tournaments went fairly well, considering we were starting in the offseason. We have four month sessions, with one $1000 added 8-ball event each month. Our 1st event was at The Pyramid Club in Addison, IL. We had 53 players for that event and Lance Mayer ended up winning. Payouts were 1st - $500, 2nd - $300, 3rd - $200, 4th - $150, 5th/6th - $100, and so on...all the way down to 13th/16th. We've pretty much paid the same in each of our events....the money for the top 4 finishers never changes. Our next three events were held at Shooters Billiards in Grayslake, Bay Billiards in Fox Lake, and then back to The Pyramid Club to finish things off. We hovered right around 30 players at Shooters and Bay Billiards (Paul Scott won these events back-to-back), and then about 40 players at Pyramid where Henry Brodt won (he actually chopped with Leo Campos). We're hoping that when the winter rolls around, the fields will really start to balloon in size. Again, I'll be uploading a link to all of our player $$ won, stats, and averages shortly...

We Appreciate The Support!

Scott,

Thanks so much! Things really are looking up and we've got some good traction and momentum in the Chicago area. Our tournaments are starting to get a really good reputation with the players, which isn't an easy thing to do. The goal is to eventually have visibility nationwide thru both our leagues and our tournaments. Thanks again for the support...

Daniel
