The country's top amateur pool players will take their next shot for the chance to win $1 million in the Canadian Club Sharpshooter Challenge National Finals starting at 6:30 p.m. Saturday at Harrah's Hotel. It concludes one of the country's largest amateur 8-ball tournaments that began in September, with more than 500 local events and 20,000 players.

The national champion will receive $5,000 and the chance to take the Canadian Club Million Dollar Shot -- sink the eight ball off the break.
