Super Billiards Expo Event Roundup
Artistic Pool Masters Championship
The Super Billiards Expo concluded March 16 just after 6 p.m., when the final event, the Artistic Pool Masters Championship, crowned a new champion. Mark Dimick bested Eric Yow in the finals with the title coming down to the final shot. Dimick successfully completed it on his first attempt, and although Yow could have taken the event on his first attempt or tied on his second, he failed to execute the shot each time, making Dimick the new champion.

Across the arena, the pro-am was grinding its way through to also crown a new champion. The semifinals had Matt Clatterbuck eliminate Tyler Edey and Ronnie Wiseman knock out Ryan McCreesh. Then, in the finals, Clatterbuck all but walked away with the event, taking Wiseman to school 11-4.
