US Open 08/18-23

Chua ended up pulling out the victory 9-7.

Anyone noticed that Chua played the last few racks at absolute blazing speed, especially that last rack? He even would go down on several shots before the CB even stopped rolling...literally. Not sure if that was to psych himself up, or psych out Pongers. Chua might have been annoyed by Pongers very extended break right after Chua got on the hill.
Chua looked tired until the very end. Some uncharacteristic mistakes and misses. But Quinten Pongers let him off the hook. Any top 20 player would have sent Chua to the one-loss side. He needs a day off and will get it.

Quinten is the older brother of the younger - and better - Yannick.

Filler now on table 3. Early WNT TV sighting.

Best All-Around Production Cue for ~$1000 (Value, Playability, Durability, Support)?

When you go to the doctor, do you say, "Doc, I need a prescription. What's going around?" No, you should say what game you play. Nine ball, snooker, billiards, 14.1, etc. That is your real need. Everybody is prescribing what they have or what they want. Be more specific in describing your needs so YOU will be satisfied.

BK Rush

Yeah, I had a BK Rush and a BK4 and they broke almost exactly the same...maybe the BK Rush had the tiniest bit less deflection but I'm not even sure of that. Ended up selling the BK Rush because I had the green set of BK Rush and Air Rush and it was worth a bit of $$$ on the used market and I had already found a jump cue I liked better. Just using the BK4 for now and it's great, can always get a BK Rush shaft for it down the road if I want carbon again.
It's funny that the green one is probably the cheapest one here right now (besides the original or blue). Everyone is currently Fapping over the Nightcrawler, pink, and to some extent the white one still... The new silly neon ones they unveiled at the expo didn't gain much traction beyond teenage boys at the cheesy Chinese table halls from my observations. Red and Gold will hold value here in China for obvious reasons.
