Game two the remaining 15 entrants all play individual games in the order in which they advanced from game one, lowest score is eliminated. This process continues until there is 2 entrants left, which one final game will be played in order to determine the winner.

Finals notes- During a game, once the entrant reaches the current lowest score, they will drain and plunge any remaining balls. That entrant then will advance to the next game and join the queue, multiple games will be taking place at once this way to save time. The only objective is for an entrant is to not be the lowest score.

B Division Finals - The first 12 in standings who didn’t make the main finals, will play in a shorter B Division finals, which will be for a minor prize and will effect your standing in final tournament results. Format for B Division finals to be announced!
