LIFTING the UK Open Pool Championship will be at the forefront of every player’s mind – but the prize money is not a bad incentive either.
Youngster Robbie Capito walked out of the Telford Centre with a pocket full of cash last year after beating Miesko Fortunski 13-10 in an epic final.

The Hong Kong-born Filipino banked $30,000 just for winning the showpiece match alone.
But for Capito to be rewarded with another nice payday by Sunday, May 11, the defending champion must overcome the likes of serial winner Jayson Shaw and 2024 world champion Joshua Filler.
Plus the likes of Barry Hearn OBE and talkSPORT radio host Andy Goldstein will be throwing their hats in the ring too.
Find out how much is up for grabs below.
