Six-red World Championship

The Six-red World Championship (also known as "Sangsom Six-red World Championship" for sponsorship purposes) was a six-red snooker tournament, played with the six <dfn style="border-bottom:1px dotted #0645AD; font-style:inherit;">colour balls</dfn> and six <dfn style="border-bottom:1px dotted #0645AD; font-style:inherit;">reds</dfn>.

The event was introduced in the 2008/2009 season, and was formerly known as the Six-red Snooker International and Six-red World Grand Prix. In 2010, it replaced another event as the official six red snooker world championship, after the previous event—held once in 2009— was discontinued.

Forty-eight players were divided in 8 double-elimination groups. The top four from each group moved into the knock-out stage. Between 2008 and 2010 the event were held at the Montien Riverside Hotel, Bangkok, Thailand.
