The AI answer that they sell a dedicated snooker chalk shows you something that ISN’T V10 (it’s 2.0). The other listings call V10 pool snooker chalk (presumably to catch people searching for either one).

Hopefully you got the real deal.

It is a backup piece of chalk in my case but seems legit. It is one of 4 types of chalk TAOM makes, Pagulayan chalk
being the 4th chalk. Apparently most readers, like originally I was, are unaware TAOM even made a snooker chalk.
Like I previously explained, I stumbled across it and was surprised since I am usually familiar with what’s available.

Joe stayed under the radar. Wait until you see what he made for me.

Why is that? He can be sick for many reasons.

I can go down the road to any fast food joint in America and get diarrhea or food poisoning, no need to travel to Vietnam.

Not to mention we have a 40% obesity rate. If anything, people need to be careful when eating in America

Food hygeine is less regulated in a second world country like Vietnam.

If I was a pro who spent a lot of money going to Vietnam, I am only eating at McDonalds.

I like the phenolic joint

Every person I've gambled with at last pocket 8-ball considers this a loss of game to intentionally foul by shooting the 8.

It sucks when you have to stoop to playing a stupid ass game in order to get someone to play for something.

Don’t take this the wrong way but you aren’t very expert at searching the Internet either.

Prior to seeing the Walmart listing, I felt like you but I have a hunch Walmart isn’t likely
to offer a counterfeit TAOM chalk for $11. So my gut told me it was real but I also made
sure the chalk actually existed. Sure nuf, the chalk looks legit to me and was inexpensive.

Holy shit Shasha just made the sickest jump-combo and ended up making both balls. Insane.

Best shot I've seen in the whole tournament(s). Obviously she didn't intend to make both balls but the jump combo itself is wild.

But jumping is no skill. Jump cues ruin the game. Anyone can jump with one. I see 420 FargoRate people who jump as good as the pros in 10 minutes with one. Etc…

Can anyone explain how a QR code on the back of a piece of chalk allows customers to check that it is the legit product? I mean, if I were a counterfeiter, I would buy one piece of legit V10 and copy that QR code and put it on the back of my contraband pieces. Am I missing something here?

Click to expand...

One way is to have a different QR code on each piece of chalk. Accessing the QR code could return the number of times it had been accessed, the manufacturing date, and even the distributor. I suppose they could even have a registration process so the later accesses could come back with the name of the registered owner of that piece of chalk.

I agree that the same code on all chalks would be nearly useless.

Who is considered to be the best women's player at this point? I wouldn't be surprised if Shasha Liu falls in the conversation

Seoa only played with Zielinski because Capito wasn't there at the time, I'm not sure why he was unavailable but they were dating since before then.

And yes I know about FSR and David, t'was a mere jest. Albin and Jasmine aren't dating either, for obvious reasons. But you didn't correct that one, so now I have reason to believe they are in fact dating.

Excellent post! Yes, I'm just messing with you, and you are with me, which is perfectly fine with me. Of course, FSR and Alcaide memorably won the World Cup of Pool together.

Had no idea Robbie missed St Louis. I know he has been dating Seo for a long time. Still, I couldn't help remember how Seo brought out the very best of Wiktor Zielinski when they were paired and it added up to a title. I had never seen Wiktor so positive at the table as he was on that occasion, and it showed up in his outstanding play.

Mixed doubles, for me, has been a nice addition to pro pool's offering.

Very nice. I can't wait to get my 4 pointer. I've never owned one, and it'll be my first true custom cue.

Capito was in St. Louis. He lost in the last 32.

sjm said:

To be honest, Zielinski and Seoa, who won the mixed doubles at, I think, Predator St Louis, seemed a perfect pairing, but they weren't teamed up this time. Wonder why not.

Probably sponsorship-related. Seo and Wiktor are both sponsored by Little Monster. I think they played their first mixed doubles ever at an event sponsored by Little Monster in late 2025.

Seo and Robbie played great together until the loss vs Yapp and Lu.
