Extra event and $100 added to tournament next week

Good news! Dana will be running a Draw Your Partner at Cuetopia next Friday at 8pm. We’ll follow that up with Open Singles and Doubles tournaments at California Billiards on Saturday, and we’re going to add $100 to the pot for the doubles event.

The Saturday doubles events will be a Shake-n-Bake, with both Draw Your Partner and Bring Your Partner teams. If you enter on the Draw side, you get a random partner. Whenever a Draw team plays a Bring Team, the Bring team needs to score 6 points to win the game. The top finishing draw team will also get an extra $50 in prize money. The other $50 in added money will go into the overall pot.

Recapping the schedule:

Friday, Oct 7, 8 pm: Draw Your Partner at Cuetopia

Saturday, Oct 8, 3 pm: Singles at California Billiards

Saturday, Oct 8, 7 pm: Shake-n-Bake at California Billiards, $100 added!

Looking forward to seeing everyone there.

Colorado State Championships Points Race – Mario Kart Style

Bayfoos is pleased to announce a points race leading up to the Colorado State Table Soccer Championships. We’ll host 12 tournaments between now and November 1st, starting this Tuesday Sept 13th with a Monster Draw. Players will accumulate points, and top finishers in each category will win prizes.

Category 3: $150 in cash

Category 2: $75 in cash

Category 1: $50 in free entry

Unlike previous bayfoos points races, we’ll be running this Mario Kart style. (No, we do not mean you’re allowed to shell your opponents.) You’ll get points based on your overall finish in each tournament, with 1st place and 2nd place getting bonus points. Larger turnouts also means more points.

The finish points formula will be Number of Teams – Team Finish + 1. For example, if there are 12 teams and you place 5th, you’ll receive 8 finish points (just like in Mario Kart). First place will receive 3 bonus points. Second place will receive 1 bonus point. More examples:

1st place in an 8 person event: finish points = (8 – 1 + 1) = 8, bonus points = 3, total = 11 points.

2nd place in an 8 person event: finish points = (8 – 2 + 1) = 7, bonus points = 1, total = 8 points.

3rd place in an 8 person event: finish points = (8 – 3 + 1) = 6, bonus points = 0, total = 6 points.

4th place in an 8 person event: finish points = (8 – 4+ 1) = 5, bonus points = 0, total = 5 points.

8th place in an 8 person event: finish points = (8 – 8 + 1) = 1, bonus points = 0, total = 1 point.

For Monster Draws and Singles events, we’ll be using the Number of Players as the base instead of the Number of Teams. (For example, 1st place in a 16 player monster draw would 16+3 = 19 points total.)

We don’t expect many ties at the end of 12 events, but if they do happen the tied players will split the prize. Players can compete for prizes above their category, so a category 2 player can win the category 3 prize. Players cannot win more than one prize.

More details to come. We’ll announce schedule and player categories later this week. Send us questions in the SF Foos facebook group.
