Entries were low.  The possible snow storm scared off some entries as they had around 70 something entries.  It wasn't the house shot and they put down a 48 ft pattern that broke down ugly.  It took -32 to make the cut for 4 games.   The first 2 eliminator cuts in the finals were 167 & 177.  Ira Darden beat Anthony Whitehead in the title match.  1st & 2nd place paid $1500 & $750.

I wonder if that is the same "48 ft" pattern that they plan on putting down for their 30 game tournament. If so, sounds like those participating in that should be in for a fun 16 hours.
