Chattanooga area Live Games

The Chattanooga Billiards Club on Lee Hwy has a nice NLHM tournament every Sunday and Tuesday. The buy in is $15. The price of admission is actually for the buffet. The tournament runs 15 weeks. First place guarantees a seat for week 16. A top 6 finish in week 16 will win you a nice casino package. Not exactly the instant cash I'm looking for, but the last overall final week winner received a trip for two to Vegas and two $1000 buy ins. It's a nice venue and cheap practice for a live game. Since it's cheap, and they're serving drinks, you occasionally run into a dumbass that has no right calling down a hand that ends up sucking out. Somebody please tell me it's not like this in the higher stakes...

Bud's on Brainerd has a small tournament on Monday nights starting at 6:30. The buy-in is $15 with rebuys for $10 for the first hour. There is only about 30 people max in attendance, so I like my chances (compared to 150 people at CBC). Payout is cash to the top 4 or 5.

The Fox and Hound has a tournament running on Thursday nights. $15 buy in, not sure of the payout.

Charlie's in Soddy has a game on Tuesdays, $55 buy in with rebuys. First can bring in almost $3k.

The Holiday Bowl on Hixson Pike just started a tourney on Monday nights and I haven't made it down there yet.

Putters bar just off Hixson Pike has a game running 3 days a week with a cash payout. I think the buy in runs you about $25.

Dayton Rec. Center in Dayton has a game almost every night of the week. Buy in is $33 with rebuys for $30. It will run for about 3 hours and then another starts. Payout is cash for the top 4.

There are probably 20 other games I don't have listed here, so feel free to post a comment and list your favorite venue in the South East Tennessee or North West Georgia area.
