British Blitz Championship 2013

Post by Alex Holowczak » Fri Apr 19, 2013 7:19 pm

Surprised I haven't set one of these up already...

We've got 57 confirmed entrants for the British Blitz Championship, played tomorrow in Birmingham. We'll take entries up until kick-off, but note that there's a £5 late fee tomorrow. Click the link in my signature if you'd like to enter.

For determining the colour of the number 1 seed in round 1, we're using the World Snooker Championship match between Ronnie O'Sullivan and Marcus Campbell.

If O'Sullivan breaks off the opening frame, the number 1 seed will have white in round 1.

If Campbell breaks off the opening frame, the number 1 seed will have black in round 1.

Ronnie O'Sullivan eventually broke off frame 1, so the number 1 seed will be white in round 1.

And the 'number 1 seed' has noticed that he is perilously close to being paired against his brother in said round 1 game :shock:

A pairing last seen in my birthday blitz in the 90s when both were on 5/5 :shock:
