WPBA Pacific Coast Classic Pick’em
All you need to do is click the above link, read through the directions, register and you’re good to go. As always, we’ll announce the winners on Monday after the event.
The new pick’em for the WPBA Colorado Classic is now live. There are a few slots that haven’t been determined (as the qualifiers still are up in the air), but you can go ahead and register your picks anytime between now and 9/16/09.
As this is a new event and its in our backyard (well, its way south of us, but its still in Colorado, so we’ll call it our backyard), we’ve decided to bump up the prizes a bit. Just for this event, we’ve increased all five of the prizes:
1st: $125 Gift Certificate
2nd: $100 Gift Certificate
3rd: $75 Gift Certificate
4th: $50 Gift Certificate
5th: $25 Gift Certificate
Other than that, same rules as always. Pick who you think will finish in the Top 8. Points are given out based on where your players finish: 1st gets 160, 2nd gets 150 and so on down to 16th which gets 10 points. The person with the highest total points wins. In the event of a tie, we use a randomizer to break it and choose a winner.
If you’ve played before, just use your existing account. New players just need to fill out the easy registration form. So what are you waiting for? Get picking already!

The WPBA US Open kicks off this week, which means that you’ve only got a couple more days to get your picks in for the free WPBA Pick’em Challenge. Same rules as always. You pick the Top 8, the five best pickers win some dawg dough.
Lots of familiar faces for the most popular picks this time around. Fresh off her win at the Borderline Billiards satellite event, Karen Corr is now the top choice to win the US Open. Despite a win at the WPBA Great Lakes Classic, Jasmin Ouschan has yet to crack the list of top vote getters. The Top 5 picks look like this:
1. Karen Corr
2. Allison Fisher
3. Kelly Fisher
4. Ga Young Kim
5. Jeanette Lee
Unfortunately, there won’t be any live streaming, as the Riverwind Casino can’t spare the bandwidth, but I’ll be updating match scores in all of Sarah Rousey’s matches as they come in on Twitter.
Just a quick note to let everyone know that the free US Open Pick’em is live and with just a week to go before the deadline, there’s no time like the present to get registered. Just head over to http://www.pooldawg.com/article/pooldawg‐library/wpba‐us‐open‐pick‐em and get your picks in.

2nd Place: $50 PoolDawg Gift Certificate
3rd Place: $25 PoolDawg Gift Certificate
