The fourth leg was expected to be held last week Friday, February 5 at Over the River Grocery in Overland, but that did not materialize, as irregular weather patterns caused flooding on the Windward side of the island, forcing the postponement of the competition.

Tournament supervisor Cleve ‘Skip’ McKenzie said that persons are encouraged to take up registration between 6 and 8 p.m. at the venue.

To register, a competitor must purchase three Guinness beverages. Pool sharks will compete, using the best of three format and the last man standing at the end of the night will take home EC$500 and a place in the grand finale on March 12th, where he can walk away with EC$5,000 cash.

Players already in the running for the big money are Ozzie St Hillaire, Andy Lynch and Dygo Sergeant, who won the first, second and third legs respectively.

The other games will be played at Over the River Grocery in Overland on Friday, February 19; Bequia on Saturday, February 20th; Azard St Hill in Troumaca on Saturday, February 27 and Tree House Bar in Arnos Vale on Saturday, March 5.

McKenzie said that the tournament is structured to promote positive competition in an entertaining atmosphere.
