The geographic center of North America, Rugby North Dakota, is a super event and the city goes all out to host a very strong event. I missed out on this one, but have had many good times there in the past.
The calcutta is an event to behold. Great players going for some high dollars. People pooling their resources to get the player they want. Plus some really good bar table 8-ball players. I remember watching a match with Rob Mattson, he won the flip in the race to 5, alternate break against his Canadian opponent.
Nine break and runs later Rob won on the hill, 5-4. I have never see a match like that. The Canadian fellow lost and ran four racks the only problem was Rob ran 5.
Great event. Also the home of Samsara Cues.
