Hi, I'm trying to get the funds together to make the Big journey out to Vegas and I was wondering which tourney is better as far as playing, Spectatting as far as the pro's being there and which one has more venders, hoopla etc? Just a small Fyi, I'm a b player at best so not thinking about Prize money regarding which tourney to attendThanks for your time, TODD
 
Neither, the BCA is by FAR the best tournament in Vegas for all of the things you mentioned.

Once the BCA ends a huge amount of the vendors pack up and leave and the pros dissapear for the most part in preparation for the VNEA.

The VNEA does have a decent international contingent that makes up for the lack of overall player numbers to a degree, but the event just seems fairly dead for the most part after the BCA.

From what I have heard the ACS is even worse and given this

I can see why, the money is a fraction of what it is in the BCA and that is due to a lack of participation.

This year the BCAPL in Vegas is likely to be even bigger with two major pro events in the World Pool Masters and the US Open 10-ball coinciding with it.
 
Both the BCA and the VNEA are good tournaments. Screw the ACS.

The Pro's are only there during the BCA tourney. But, if your only choices are between the VNEA and ACS, I would definitely go with the VNEA. The ACS is way to small of a turnout.
I have gone to all these plus the APA. My favorite is by far the BCA tournament. JMHO

I didn't know about the BCA Even untill someone posted about it on here, Now I'm leaning towards that. Thanks everyone keep the Ideas comits coming. TODD
