$1.5M first place prize for Chinese tournament next week

Probably not much. The prior events were very top heavy in the payout. Last 64 probably pays less than $5K.

But I think international players like Mickey probably get free entry, hotel, transportation etc, so whatever he makes is probably profit.

The flyer in the first post shows the payout amounts. 33rd-64th places all got paid ¥20k, approximately $2950. Coincidentally the same as the US Open, where 33rd-64th paid $3k.

'76-78 Meucci MO-8 Chess cue

Okay, here are the pics.

Two shafts: 1 NICE 13'ish, straight shaft. Tight grain. 2. Two inches longer, Slight taper roll, tip doesn't leave the table. Full shaft.

Butt and shafts weigh around 20 oz. With either. I'm guessing, no scale. I'll be close.

Some stress cracks in the chess buttsleeve. Pics show them. Two or three hairline cracks in the joint sleeve. Joint is fine, the cracks aren't separated. But, I had to mention them.

There are a few bumps on the forearm, nothing through the finish.
Cue plays great and solid with no rattles. Good Old playing cue. I'd definitely have no problem using it as an everyday player.

Case is what I'd consider really nice to be 30+ years old. It has the rubber around all the angles.

Cue is for sale with case at $675 or best offer. Might separate case. I feel it's worth a buck. Thanks guys.
Old thread but do you still have it

Do cue makers who make wood shafts still use a wood sealer dip?

The Lucasi Fuze? Or something else?
The Fuze. Honestly it goes head to head against my Tiger Fortis CF shaft. Main difference is the Feel and Aesthetics. Had to change the tip though since it was producing this funny sound that some members were pointing out. Besides, I didn't like the tip. Changing the tip with an Ultraskin Pro made it go to 11 (spinal tap reference). I delegated my Tiger Fortis shaft as my other shaft mainly for long shots.

cue ID help

I plan on just keeping them I like how they look. Thanks for the info, I just looked at the Kao cues and I am 100% positive it is not one of those. There was not 1 single thing about their designs that was similar. Every feature was different. Joints, points, buts, but caps, bumpers, and overall styling, all different. I am about 80% certain the first cue is an Adam. The 2nd cue though, I have my doubts.
this might up your percentage a bit.
