Bigwigs Joins Shooters to Launch New 9-Ball Series
Scott Soroko, 10/25/2007 | The 404 9-Ball Series

Ken Botham and Rob Blair of Bigwigs billiards have joined forces with John White of Shooters to launch the 404 9-Ball Series. The appropriatly named tour will have events at the two rooms both found just off Highway 404. Bigwigs will be adding more dates to the tour at their location, keep an eye on the events section for them!!

** I would also like to remind all the players out there that Bigwigs is having an 8-Ball event this weekend, hope to see you all out there!!

Here are the details about the format, for event dates check out their tour page.

Each tournament will have $1000.00 added guranteed, handicap will be by the game, not the balls.

Handicapps will be as follows:
Race to 10 games
Race to 9 games
Race to 8 games
Race to 7 games
Race to 6 games
Race to 5 games

Winner breaks and nine ball does not count off of the break.
Players that play as 10 & 9 will pay $75. and players that are 8 and below will pay $50 entry fees.
From each tournament we will hold back 10% of the entry monies and the final tournament will have that money added to it.
Finals will be double entry fees, and fees will be determined on number of events played (still working on that detail) Estimated finals will have a purse of $10,000!!

404 Tour in Review, Final Events Start this Weekend!
Story by:Erik Hjorleifson, 5/7/2009

On the weekend of April 25-26 BigWigs in Newmarket, Ontario held the final event of the 2008-2009 404 series. I believe that all around this was the most successful and well received tour that has taken place as of yet in the Toronto area, in all roughly 200 different players participated in at least one event throughout the course of the year, with an average of close to 64 players per event.

A full field of sixty-four players were in attendance for this past weekend's 404 series held at Shooter's in North York. Shooters room owner John White assumed his regular duties as tournament director and as usual his efficient skills in managing the large field through the brackets was instrumental in making the tournament enjoyable to play in.
