Seminole Pro Tour Stop at California Billiards

On April 29, 2011, several of the top pool players in the world will come together in Mountain View, California for the $12,000 added first stop of the Seminole Pro Tour.  Yours truly will be competing in…oh, wait, let’s correct that…will be playing in the 10 ball event.  Did I earn my way into the tournament?  Heck no.  I just paid the entry fee.  For a paltry $115, I have the opportunity to step up to the table and play with the best of the best in a three day double elimination race to nine 10 ball event.  There will be two tables live streaming during the tournament…a tournament table and an action table.  But wait, there’s more!  Starting April 27, there’s a three day one pocket tournament that will be drawing the top one pocket players in the world!!!  Of course, I’ll be taking the week off from work to sit at the CBC and absorb the ambiance.

“So, you say it’s going to be a big tournament, huh?   Who’s coming?”  Good question!  I spoke to some of the folks over at California Billiards to find out which players have called in to register.  As of today, here’s a partial list of players who have confirmed they will play:
1. Earl Strickland
2. Efren Reyes
3. Francisco Bustamante
4. Corey Deuel
5. Scott Frost
6. Jeanette Lee
7. Alex Pagulayan
8. Bernard “Pots and Pans” Rogoff
9. Gabe Owen

Like a Lamb Led to the Slaughter

Is it worth $115 just to be able to say that you played…knowing that you will go two and out and probably not win a single game?
