This weekend, the Predator 9-Ball Tour will kick off the fourth event of its inaugural season at SoHo Billiards in the heart of New York City.

The tournament is scheduled to begin at 11 a.m. on Saturday, March 22, and will wrap up on Sunday, March 23. The Predator Tour, founded by Tony Robles (a longtime professional and New York native), has managed to attract international stars to every event this year. Thorsten Hohmann, Mika Immonen and George Sansouci are among the top-ranked players on tour.

Like all 13 stops on this year's schedule, the Soho Billiards stop guarantees $1,000-added money. The 9-ball format calls for race-to-9 on both winners' and losers' sides and a one-set race-to-11 final match.
