CueSports International Announces U.S. Open 10-Ball Championship Player List and Payouts
When CueSports International (CSI) initially announced the 2010 U.S. Open 10-Ball Championship, being held May 17-22, 2010 at the Riviera Hotel & Casino, the anticipated max field size was 96 players. Due to player response, CSI has expanded the field to 112 in the event’s inaugural year. The premier $25,000 added event will take place immediately following the PartyPoker.net World Pool Masters (May 12-16), during the 34th BCAPL National 8-Ball Championships (May 14-22).
Open to men, women, amateur and professional players worldwide, the U.S. Open 10-Ball Championship is a Billiard Congress of America (BCA) point event and recognized by the Women’s Professional Billiard Association (WPBA). Below is the player list for the 2010 U.S. Open 10-Ball Championship and payout based on the full 112 field.
There are still five opportunities to win a paid entry to the U.S. Open 10-Ball Championship.
