Hello everyone,
We have some exciting news to share with you all, as we have decided the Master's will be a 10-ball event. The event is scheduled for March 1-5, 2011 at the Chesapeake Conference Center. The floor plan will be close to the same as the U.S. Open, using ¾ of the ballroom and 12 pool tables with a dividing wall separating the pro event from the APA regional event. The APA regional event will begin on Thursday March 3rd and end on March 6th in conjunction with the Master's 10-Ball Tournament and we are delighted to have them.
The format for the Masters will be 10-ball, race to 9, double elimination, with the final four players racing to 11, during the final day; the player must win by 2 games. All matches will be capped off to a max of who wins 15 games first.
Player entry fees will be $500 and $36,000.00 will be added with a full field of 128 players for a total prize fund of $100,000.00 (5 days only!) Check out the prize fund:
1ST Place - $20,000.00
