HIGHLIGHTS
CSI Group Play Format – teams guaranteed 5 matches!
The team divisions will use the CSI Group Play format. Stage 1 is a group stage and Stage 2 is a single elimination final bracket. In Stage 1, teams are randomly drawn into 5 separate matches,* each consisting of 15 racks for 5-player teams or 9 racks for 3-player teams. The teams that perform the best advance to Stage 2. All matches are handicapped using FargoRate. See the “Teams” section of the Player Guide for more detail. Also, read The CSI Group Play Format – A Comprehensive Guide for answers to common questions and misunderstandings regarding the format.
* Excluding factors beyond the control of CueSports International such as forfeits, drop-out teams, no-shows, byes, etc
Three 8-Ball Team Divisions
In the past, the field of 8-Ball Teams was split into two (2) divisions. This year, if the total number of 8-Ball Teams reaches at least 150 teams, the field will be split into three (3) divisions (Platinum, Gold, & Silver).
Three 8-Ball Singles Divisions
In the past, the field of 8-Ball Singles was split into two (2) divisions. This year, if the total number of 8-Ball Singles reaches at least 180 players, the field will be split into three (3) divisions (Platinum, Gold, & Silver).
Singles & Scotch Doubles Matches Extended to 2 Hours
In the past, singles and doubles matches have been scheduled for 90 minutes. While most matches complete within 90-minutes, many do not. When this happens, subsequent matches, and ultimately the entire tournament, gets delayed. Therefore, we are now scheduling singles and doubles matches for two (2) hours to allow sufficient time and provide a better experience for everyone. For any matches that still do not complete on time, CSI delayed progress rules, which can be found in the CSI Tournament Regulations, will be strictly enforced.
Format Change for Singles & Scotch Doubles
We want everyone to have the opportunity to play in as many divisions as possible. To do that efficiently, it is important to complete one division before the next one begins. The end of a double elimination bracket takes too much time to complete for just a small number of people, causes match conflicts, delays, and frustration for everyone. For example, when there are only four people remaining, it can take eight more hours to finish. To accommodate the growth of the event and still provide everyone the opportunity to play in multiple divisions, the format of all singles and doubles divisions will be slightly modified. The format will be double elimination down to the prize money rounds and then switch to single elimination (with a slightly longer race). This will still allow plenty of play for everyone while also completing the divisions in a timely manner.
Free Vegas Entries
