Lazaro Martinez III Wins CenTex Stop 7 at Skinny Bob's

Lazaro Martinez III won CenTex Pool Tour Stop 7 at Skinny Bob's Billiards in Round Rock, Texas, after an 82-player field competed on October 24-25, 2026. The victory gave the 749-rated champion 250 tour points with one regular-season stop remaining.

Official results place Aro Majumder second, Gabriel Martinez third and Eric Aicinena fourth. CenTex reported a 556 average Fargo Rating for the field and $1,500 in added money.

Who finished at the top of CenTex Stop 7?

The leading six finishers combined high-level experience with a wide rating range. Majumder, rated 618, earned 230 points for his runner-up finish, while Gabriel Martinez and Aicinena took the next two positions.

The result was particularly valuable because Stop 7 was the penultimate event on the eight-stop 2026 calendar. Every point gained in Round Rock can affect a player's final position before the season closes in San Antonio.

What format did the 82-player field use?

Stop 7 used a double-elimination 9-ball format with races to seven on the winners side and races to five on the one-loss side. Matches featured alternate break, rack your own and the three-foul rule. Jump cues were allowed.

Players competed with Predator Aero racks and Arcos II balls on Skinny Bob's collection of 17 nine-foot Diamond tables. Those conditions reward controlled speed, accurate cue-ball movement and a break that can be repeated under pressure.

The event also included a $120 Last Lady Standing prize. CenTex uses that side award to recognize the best-finishing woman in the main field while keeping all players in the same primary bracket.

Why does this result matter for the CenTex standings?

Martinez collected the maximum 250 points available to the winner. Majumder remained close with 230, while the 210, 190 and 170-point awards kept the rest of the top six in the season conversation.

The rating spread at the top also shows how the tour's structure can produce meaningful runs from players across the field. Majumder's second-place finish came against several opponents rated well above 700, making it one of the weekend's most notable performances.

When is the final 2026 CenTex Pool Tour stop?

The eighth and final stop is scheduled for November 14-15, 2026, at FE Braun in San Antonio. Players chasing year-end position will have one last opportunity to add tour points.
