This is coming up this weekend, Bergman and Matlock and Styer on the Barbox:
Ultimate Pool KC Open
- Thread starter kling&allen
- Start date
There's a bunch of "reels" on Facebook from the company about the rules. Some of them are really bizarre. If anyone is planning on playing, you better get prepared. They also have some rules videos on YouTube.
On a slightly related note, I recent saw a video of Corey Deuel playing Russian Pyramid. According to the guy doing the commentary, his opponent called at least three fouls that weren't fouls. In his defense, the opponent might have been confused about which set of rules was being used as there are several.

The flyer in that photo is of their 16 player invitational 1 pocket tournament prior to the 8 ball open.
AFAIK its a single elim. 16man 8ball invitational.

good luck to them. i usually never watch barbox pool but i enjoyed some of the matches i saw in the lousiana shootout. the shot clock makes it entertaining.

I signed up to play in the open. The rule set is some weird divergence with English blackball. I don’t expect anyone will know the rules (myself included).
looks like 4.3" or thereabouts. is that really tougher than diamond? dont diamonds have deeper shelves
My impression of the rules is that they are almost as important as being able to play well. Check out the reels if you can.
Ya tight jaws there but shouldn’t be a big deal with shallow valley shelves. Wonder if they did anything to the side pockets because sides already play tighter on a valley than their corners do.
Thank you.
didn't see him first but that welsh guy jordan in the field can wreak havoc. check him up on youtube if you haven't heard about him.
He's unbelievable
The official tournament site seems to be very well done for matches and such. Much better than the Matchroom sites.
A friend runs leagues at SPBS's. These are really nice joints, big clean places with good equipment, food/bar. four in kc, one in wich. https://www.sidepockets.com/
