to find the answer .... check corn hole roster ... . i think alot of the pool players are moving up to tossing bags in holes at distance ...... JK
Still should be more than 25 at a big 1p event in Vegas. Ton of US players that don't play on the WNT tour.
One would think that there would be more players. That’s bad news
Stuff happens
It’s not the end of the world or a sign of anything declining

Tons of solid players between az and so cal alone.

You don't know.
Neither do you
Pretty much. Another meaningless reply. His specialty, never says anything or adds to a thread. Just these go nowhere/do nothing replies. All he ever comes with.

The whole thing is piss poorly run. Poorly advertised. The four events run for two weeks consecutively after the Predator/CSI/BCA two weeks of events. Burnout? Who wants to sit in Vegas for four weeks and pay that nut? With those low of turnouts the events should be shortened in days. Also why no 1P starting yesterday? What were players doing yesterday while waiting for only a handful to play the final Banks rounds. Have the events overlay each other like Derby.
I don't go one 1P.org. Did the promoters advertise anywhere other than Griff's Facebook page?

These events have been poorly attended for years now. Do the players not like the organizer or payouts?
Vegas is a tough nut to crack these days. Long gone are the days of a cheap date and eating steak when you’re broke. That has to be a factor. But still with the $ in the 1P one would think there’d be a better turnout. Far as I know everyone likes Griffs. I was there for a week earlier this month.
These "US Open" wannabe events usually draw small, and often forgettable, fields. Perhaps they need to rename these events "Interplanetary Open".
These is a very popular magazine called Women's World. If they sponsor an event, I wonder if it will be called the Women's World Championship.

WomensWorld needs to hook-up with the tools at the WPA. They could have the "WWWPA". Actually it needs another 'W', the "WomensWorldWorldWannabePoolAssociation".
Mark Griffin did more for pool in this country than ANY stuffed shirt pos in Qatar. Sad that they can't arrange their sched. to get more players in these events at Griffs.
Between the two of you Moran's, the full range of AZB experience.
Huh??? You talking to me?? Don't be comparing me to that TexasCarom tool.
is ellerman playing? he's fun.
these events have always had small fields, but can still be fun depending on who is playing. i suspect 1p is gonna be easy pickings for tony or evan
