OPEN TO ALL PLAYERS CURRENTLY ON A ROSTER IN ENERGY CITY APA.

This Saturday at Slicks in Katy, come test yourself for a chance to represent the best players in Energy City APA in Vegas! Doors open at 10, play will start at 11. Masters for Vegas, singles format, double elimination, no handicaps!

Normal APA rules with the following exceptions, you can call the 8 instead of marking it, jump sticks are allowed, and you can do a roll out after the break in 9 ball.

Quick rule breakdown, winner of the lag picks either to break first or the format (8 or 9 ball). If 8 ball is picked first, you will play 5 games of 8 and then switch to 9 until a player has won 7 games. If 9 ball is picked first, you will play up to 8 games of 9 ball and then switch to 8 if needed until one player has won their 7 games.

$50 a person entry fee including green fee. Winner of the winners bracket and winner of the losers bracket will be the first 2 on the team and will split the whole pot. Each of the winners will pick another person that is active in Energy City APA to join their team to make the team of 4 players. The other 2 added players must pay their own way. Masters patches will be given out for 8 or 9 on the break and all break and runs.
