World Pool League

World Pool League

The World Pool League was a nine ball pool tournament promoted by Matchroom Sport and sanctioned by the World Pool-Billiard Association. It has always been held in Warsaw, Poland and had its last edition in 2006. Six notable players are selected to participate.

Format

Round robin stage

The players are arranged in a way where one shall take on the others once. Unlike most matches in the sport where a player has to score a required number of racks to win, players in this round play in an assigned number of racks (for example: 10 racks or 12 racks). Should a player won more racks than whats remaining in the match, he shall earn 2 points. If the match ends with two players in the same score, then both of them settle for a point each. The leading 4 players in the field will proceed to the semi-finals.

emi-finals and finals

This part of the event now changes into single elimination. The players then play the matches in regular style as mentioned above (such as race-to-9 or race-to-8).
