Michigan - July - 94 players in 2008. Strong field, generally the most ABT points for first place of any single event on the tour. 11 pts main. Double elimination with progressive consolation format.

Las Vegas - November - 98 players in 2008. Also strong field, tends to draw more international players. Highest prize pool on the tour. 15 points main single elim with buybacks; progressive consolation and last chance.

Wisconsin - September - 47 players in 2008. This is a Swiss format event with lots of play and lots of chances for strong players to prevail. Winner of main event can potentially have lost as many as 3 matches.
