LAS VEGAS (May 30, 2013)

The World Professional Billiard League launched the inaugural 2013 season at the WPBL Arena in Las Vegas, NV last night to a packed house. The season’s first match-up featured the New York Pride against the Atlanta Scorpions.

Corey Deuel has made a successful transformation to snooker as the former U.S. Open 9-Ball Pool Champion has now added the 2013 United States National Snooker Championship title to his collection with victory at Snooker 147 Bar & Grill in Houston, Texas.

It has been an incredible event for the 35-year-old from Florida as he was fortunate to qualify from the group phase after suffering two defeats out of four matches, placing runner-up to the five-time champion Tom Kollins, but he slowly forged his way into the Championship and gathered momentum with each match played to reach the final against the defending champion, Sargon Isaac.
