What is the OP CUP?
The OverPower Cup tournament event is mostly the “brainchild” of Chris Vezina, using a two day tournament format that I first heard about from Norm, who I believe told me he first heard about it from Phil Keffer. Whether or not the idea for this format came from someone else, I do not know. Chris decided to host the first OP CUP in Ohio and I jumped on board to judge the event so he could still compete. Doug Simms then hosted the second one, also in Ohio, as we only heard that everyone had such a good time at the first event. It is called the OP CUP because they “made” a cup to be given as a prize to the winner, in addition to the big money prize. The OP CUP is a great way for people to meet other OverPower players from many different locations. How many tournaments have you attended that have had players from Canada, California, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Alabama all at once?
