I hope so -- and I agree October seems like it ought to be OK. ...
... unless one of these virus mutations upends the vaccine -- yikes!!
I just signed up for the vaccine here in NH today; it was the first day you could sign up being simply over 65, without necessarily any underlying conditions.
Kentucky the age is 70 and upI hope so -- and I agree October seems like it ought to be OK. ...

Bogie's in Houston has been hosting it, and adding money, so for now I would say the event is theirs as long as they want to keep it going, since they have been so supportive. This would be something like the 5th or 6th year except for circumstances totally out of their control. A major Texas flood one year that forced a cancel and the pandemic in 2020.Phoenix would be a good place. Lots of one pocket players and rooms here.

Welcome to the club old man.I turn 65 this year. I know I look 45
When you brought in PPV that changed how the average person could view a bunch of old has beens playing one pocket. Why should they be able to have it over any other pool room. I agree with Lenny, there are lots of pool rooms everywhere to host a seniors event with free stream. Fast Eddys in Santa Cruz has agreed to host a Seniors event.Bogie's in Houston has been hosting it, and adding money, so for now I would say the event is theirs as long as they want to keep it going, since they have been so supportive.

You know we are talking about the senior event, not the onepocket.org MOT right? We didn't even start the senior tournament, it was started by Bogies in Houston. We have always "packed" it though lol. And we have heavily promoted it here. But Bogies came up with the senior event idea and added money from the beginning. Otherwise I would also be in favor of moving it around, the way we do with our own MOT. I definitely believe that moving around the MOT has added new members. It has done that everywhere, except not so much in Philly -- but that was essentially because of a misunderstandingI believe it should move around.
Otherwise it favors the same geographically situated group of players. IOWs, its always easy-peasy for the TX players. Why not make it equally so for the West, East, and Central players as it moves round?
Frankly, I don't want to hear that, "we have a lot of 1pocket players here" because most of those guys do not participate here. It should always be about the regular onepocket.org participants and not about something that drops in out of the blue that local guys benefit from. And yes, I've heard the argument that it will bring in new members, but really, it never does. Besides all that -- guys like seeing different rooms.
