Thank you for the continued support Steve...When I came up with this idea a few years back, it was welcomed by then owner David Richardson and the manager John Rizzo. What followed was an amazing gathering of players in their 70’s because we had the minimum age set for 70 at the 1st tournament. Then here at one pocket.org during the pre tournament discussions there were people who were obviously feeling left out because of their age. They wanted to play... That’s when the idea hit me for an annual members only tournament and that ball picked up momentum among the members here and came to fruition the next year in Nawlins... So it’s safe to say that Bogies, and one pocket.org and it’s many members are far and away the biggest reasons why these two annual events have experienced the success they have over the last few years... I’m very glad that the new owner of Bogies and his “OLD” manager Rizzo want to continue the tradition with the Seniors Tournament at Bogies Billiards in Houston...I should be retired -- but with my wife still working, I am going to try to last until she retires...
They are still undecided Robert, but it’s definitely going to happen... as soon as they figure out the dates where the tournament will work, ( no conflicts ) John Rizzo will let me know and I will post them, along with registration information, phone numbers, etc etc...Jeff, John called today and said change in scheduling. Last weekend in July. 24 players(possibly 32). $2000 added.
$200 entry. Great host, great event. Will fill up fast.
Whatever date works is fine with me -- I very much appreciate them committing to this!Jeff, John called today and said change in scheduling. Last weekend in July. 24 players(possibly 32). $2000 added.

Only the incognito players and sweaters will be wearing masks.Will wearing masks be required by the players while playing?
I was just at Bogies and Big Tyme. No one wore a mask that I saw in my two days there.Will wearing masks be required by the players while playing?
I thought they might schedule it in the fall to give things a little more time to settle down with COVID. At 65 and older you are more vulnerable even with the vaccine.Jeff, John called today and said change in scheduling. Last weekend in July. 24 players(possibly 32). $2000 added.

The venues at Bogies and CBC Fremont are both great. They both add money and SZZR mentioned Fast Eddies in Santa Cruz but is money added at that venue?
Stopped in Hard Times last night, first time since last July.Or, Hardtimes in Sacramento.
