THE 18th annual PartyPoker.net Mosconi Cup will be contested on a DIAMOND PRO-AM table following an agreement between Diamond Billiard Products of Jeffersonville, Indiana and Matchroom Sport of the UK.

Diamond is well established in the United States as the Official Table of major events such as the US Open, the Derby City Classic, the Ultimate 10-Ball, US Open One-Pocket Championship, US Open 10-Ball Championship as well as all WPBA events. In addition it is the popular choice among tournament players across the United States.

Chad Scharlow, Vice President of Diamond Billiard Products Inc, said: “I am very excited to have Diamond pool tables featured at the Mosconi Cup. I consider the Mosconi Cup and Diamond tables to be premium brands within the billiard industry and look forward to showcasing them as such.
“I know the players love our tables and we’re looking forward to seeing all the action unfold on a Diamond table in Las Vegas next month.”
The PartyPoker.net Mosconi Cup takes place at the MGM Grand from Thursday, December 8 to Sunday, December 11 and features two five-man teams representing the USA and Europe doing battle over four heated days.
