I absolutely love playing Pool, best game in the world besides Football and Golf and Golf is more fun to play than watch.
Watching the Pros in Pool is way fun.
This event is so big and world renowned that they really do not even advertise locally in Louisville.
It lasts for two weeks and most people in town have no clue and every top shot in the world attends this one.
Usually there are events all around the country and the players specialize in their best games. So that means the best one pocket players go one way, the best bankers go another way, and the nine ball players go their own direction as well as the trick shot folks.
This event however plays all three with a huge bonus to the overall champion in points in all three events added. When it was in Louisville at the beginning it was made to get back to the original form of hustling. It was the only known gambling event they had and it became an overnight success.
Back then there were signs hanging everywhere stating "No, no gambling" unless playing tournament game. These dudes were throwing 30k apiece up on top of the lights and locking horns round the clock. the tournament back then was awesome but from midnight until 8 the next morning the gambling room matches were even more fun than tournament.
They remodeled that hotel and it went across the bridge for a few years but once the casino seen the revenue they're making off these gamblers and their backers Caesars has locked it up for good and never letting it leave and they don't allow the public gambling on tables per wanting them all to hit the tables, and they do.
Not as fun as it was before but still an incredible event and never miss attending.
The water tastes funny when you're far from your home,
yet it's only the thirsty that hunger to roam.
