I am not seeing in the flyer of what lane condition is going to be used.  Will it be a sport pattern/modified sport pattern or will it be a house shot.  I'm hoping it will be some kind of a sport pattern.  If it is a sport pattern, I may considerate it.

I'm sorry nothing was mentioned about the pattern.  Although the tournament won't get into specifics, the shot WILL be sport compliant, as to deter a carry fest.  Should be a matter of keeping the ball in play and optimal spare shooting

There will definitely be Brackets and some side pots, all pots are optional and offer a chance to make some money back if you miss the 3 game cut.
Any other questions feel free to ask, and if you want fliers just shoot me an e-mail with your address.

No such thing as a carry contest at Arlington Lanes, even if the tournament was on a softer pattern.

I understand you dont want to give away the pattern, but can you narrow the selection down? Such as, its one of the animal patterns or its one of the long patterns?

Sure without going into specifics, the patterns is around 40' feet and reverse blocked.  Inside shots will jump, outside shots will hang, you NEED to hit your mark and make your spares
