The “Big Dog” Weekend Extravaganza III kicked off on Friday September 21st at The League Room in Parkersburg, WV with 50 players competing in a 9-ball chip tournament that was won by New Yorker Ron Kingsley. While that was going on, Dennis Hatch and Alex Olinger were splitting a 10 player mini tournament on the big tables. 
 
The main event on Saturday drew a field of 90 players with representatives from West Virginia, Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York, Indiana and Kentucky in the field. At the end of the weekend, tournament host Dennis Hatch ended splitting first and second place with Danny Smith with each player winning over $5000 in total prize money (including calcutta). Third place went to Dylan Lipatapanlop and local player Jerold Hesson turned in a strong 4th place finish.
