Top Pool Bar owner Zheng Jian Qing is putting up $1,000 for a billiard tournament to beat all billiard tournaments this December at the Garapan watering hole.<\/p>\n
Dubbed Top Pool Bar $1,000 Open 9-Ball Tournament, the competition will be held on the weekend of Dec. 18 and 19 from 7pm to 2am. The contest will have a 32-man field and will be a single elimination, race to seven wins series.<\/p>\n
Zheng said the $1,000 prize money involved matches the biggest purse offered by a billiard hall on Saipan in recent years. <\/p>\n
He said those interested should reserve slots as soon as possible as only the first 32 players that sign up get to play in the mega big bucks tournament.<\/p>\n
The first night of the tournament will be played to determine the top eight qualifiers. The Top 8, meanwhile, will duke it out on the second day of competition. <\/p>\n
The first three placers then get to divide the $1,000 pot. The second runner-up gets to line his pockets with $200, the runner-up goes home with $300, while the champion of the two-day pool extravaganza bags the $500 grand prize.<\/p>\n
Entry fee for the $1,000 billiard event is $30 per person and pairings will be done through a draw, which date will be announced at a later time according to Zheng. <\/p>\n
\u201cI hope this would be an exciting tournament. I\u2019m inviting all the top pool players on the island to compete and give themselves a chance at winning a big payday,\u201d said Zheng.<\/p>\n
