Beverly Hilton has reduced the room rate for people coming to the tournament. The Beverly Hilton is located near the corner of Wishire Bl. The Ballroom is simply marvelous, with pillars along the wall, stage in the middle, and rows of chairs around. In my judgement, there will be a good view from any seat. There will be a Butterfly booth in the lobby.
Butterfly is one of the sponsors .
Hotel will be selling food. All matches will be the best of 5. All matches will be played on one table, center stage, in an amphitheater style setting. The winner will receive a silver trophy and will have his name added to a plaque at the base of the Arthur Gilbert Cup. The runner-up will receive a silver plate.
