Please welcome our first west coast sponsored player, Edward Arciniega. Eddie hails from San Deigo, CA, and is involved with almost every Big Money Billiards event.
His hard work and determination have been paying off, and we are thrilled to have the opportunity to join him on his journey.
TTMD Billiards Streaming was in Las Vegas, during the APA 2019 singles finals in which we had the opportunity to share the experience with his family and friends. Eddie played some stellar pool and took home first prize in the Gray Tier.

Edward recently achieved the skill level of 7 in 8 Ball for the APA and we are certain that this is just the beginning of a promising future.

We will be sending Eddie some fresh TTMD Billiards Streaming Gear– keep an eye out for that.
Eddie and his team at Big Money Billiards have been working hard on their tournament streaming. Stay tuned for streams from our west coast partners.
Thank you Eddie for all you do to help grow the sport, always representing with class and determination. #TeamTTMD
It has been a little while since our last post, however, that does not mean we have not noticed our pool family out there representing. As many of you are aware TTMD Billiards Streaming– is a service provided by THINKTECHMD a technology services company. Often our focus needs to be shifted between projects on the technology side which can sometimes result in some lag on the blog.
Thank you to all of our friends for your love and support.
Here are a few photos we’d like to share from the latest events.
This past weekend June 25th -27th, was the inaugural TTMD 10-Ball Open Championship held in Front, Royal VA at On Cue Sports Bar and Grill.
We would like to thank everyone that participated in the TTMD Billiards Streaming 10-Ball Open Championship, our volunteers were incredible, the On Cue Sports Bar and Grill event staff were phenomenal, and the players– pro and amateur alike were having a wonderful time competing and socializing with each other.
As we reflect on the event we are feeling confident we are on the right track.
The races are a bit long for some, however, this tournament is meant to demand more of the athletes, and to establish an undisputed 10-Ball Champion. With races to 9 in the double-elimination phase, then races to 11 in the round of 16, followed by a race to 13 in the final, it would be hard to argue the winner did not earn the title.
Congratulations to James Aranas, he will forever be the very first TTMD Billiards Streaming 10-Ball Open Champion.

As we plan for next year, you can be sure we will be addressing areas that we feel need some work. The match scheduled times for day 1 were off and we have made a note and will adjust accordingly. We would like to thank everyone for their patience as we adapted to the situation. From a production side, we had many planned videos and flyers we wanted to air, however, the match schedule being behind created some difficulties maintaining the plan. We had scheduled to bring additional personalities and players into the booth but, the limited space available for the broadcast equipment would not accommodate dual commentary. Given the scale of the event for a first-time run, we did very well and we will continue to improve.
We endeavor to make this a featured event and destination that will make its way onto the player’s calendar each year. There is much to experience in this historical area, including site seeing, hiking, fishing, and rafting, to name a few– an outdoor person’s paradise. As the event grows in popularity we are hopeful players will plan ahead to take advantage of what the area has to offer.
After speaking with many, we believe we can declare the inaugural TTMD Billiards Streaming 10-Ball Championship a success.
Please enjoy the photos from the tournament courtesy of our TTMD Billiards Streaming team of volunteers.
A special thank you to our tournament staff, referees, and tournament director.
