GoPlayPool.com and Kent Davis, owner and operator of KD Cues announced the winners in the Valentine's Day Giveaway on February 13, 2013. The contest ran for a little over 2 months and proved to be very successful, getting hundreds of entries, and ending up with winners all across the country.
Incredibly, with all of the entries from just about every state in the U.S., the lucky winner of the Kent Davis cue, case and shirt ended up being local to the Los Angeles area. Ryan Santos, of Lomita, CA was the grand prize winner.
Mary Ann Starkey, owner of GoPlayPool.com stated, "I laughed when a few of the numbers picked by GoPlayPool.com fans ended up being people we actually know from local tournaments and pool halls. When I drew Ryan's name out of the 10 finalists, I laughed even harder. The odds of drawing someone we actually knew were so slim, but in the end, we were pleased, as we got to physically hand the cue over and even take photos with Ryan."
GoPlayPool.com will be holding future contests with even larger prizes in the future. "We would like to thank everyone who has supported us in our venture, and we are looking forward to many more fun events and contests. This is a great thing for the sport, and the players." said Ramin Bakhtiari, owner of GoPlayPool.com
