Cue Values

Poolhall60561
A friend of mine who recently passed away had few older cues and I was hoping I could get the forum to help in estimating value.

First is a Jerry Franklin Southwest that was bought in the late 80’s early 90’s. My friend went to Las Vegas to buy it when Jerry was working out of his garage.
The cue is in good condition but was a main player for years so it does have some small nicks and wear. It’s in a It’s George case.

There is also a Palmer cue that is in good condition.

What about how hard you hit the ball, top/bottom spin, side spin, friction of the cloth? If you don't reckon with all of that and more 'physics' you may make the shot, but have no shape. The person that understands all of that is going win against someone that doesn't.

Weekly GTA evening tournaments

Facebook is usually the best place to find tournament announcements. I’d suggest following Big Break Billiards, Legends, Golden Break, Corner Bank, and a facebook group called Pool Players of the GTA. There are probably a few others I’m forgetting, but those are a good place to start.

Good list. Also Petrina’s Billiards in Ajax.

Sadly Golden Break’s weekly tournaments are not running for the time being.

Buffalo's 1 Pocket Calcutta $$

Thanks @skip100. I knew the Fargo rating inherently wasn't the direct prediction, and your 50-point adjustment is interesting. Fargo gives us the best independent data source available. Perhaps in the future, the Fargo site will allow us to select a Fargo Rating by Player and by event. Your model is the beginning of the ability to price a calcutta and to possibly see if a "fix" was in, like what happened to the casino in the 90s.
