Had Seyberts credit so ordered along with a new piece of V10. Just comparing them with my finger (don't have a table at home) the Molinari is not like V10 and way more dusty blue chalk comes off on my finger. Seems like it'll be messy, probably not gonna use it but the nice blue silicone things fit on my Taom so at least there is that, I like those as chalk covers for my case.

Thanks for your post…….it helps a lot to get real feedback like yours.

Meanwhile, in the real world everyone knows everyone (or someone who knows x player), at least around here. But sure that would be a sweet spot.

If they have a shot clock I'll take advantage of tables 4 and 5 being free. Don't have the patience to watch pool without a clockshot (unless I'm there in person at the event).

Another contributor to the weak 2026 European Open field were the EPBF European championships sponsored by Predator. Eight-ball, 9-ball and other events took place in Turkey from Feb. 28 to March 10.

The prize money in these events is not big. Less than $60,000 total prize fund for each men's tournament.

The EPBF European Pool Championships did offer a sweetener. Paid accommodations (double rooms) for the top men's players.

I imagine a lot of players took part to earn WPA ranking points for the WPC or future Predator/WPA events.

In any case, most of the top pros who played in the EPBF event did not make it to Sarajevo.

Only a few did - Jonas Souto, Georgi Georgiev and Aleksa Pecelj.

Souto probably made an accommodation with Matchroom. He played in a 9-ball final today in Turkey (lost to Maciol), but is not scheduled to play his first WNT European Open match until tomorrow. Almost every other top player is playing today in Sarajevo.

Another 14 players who played in Turkey are skipping Sarajevo. Nine of these 14 played in last year's European Open.

*Wojciech Szewczyk
*Szymon Kural
*Daniel Maciol
Konrad Juszczyszyn
*Mateusz Sniegocki
Felix Vogel
*Petri Makkonen
*Casper Matikainen
Stefan Kasper
*Joao Grilo
Juan Carlos Exposito
Roman Hybler
*Alnar Mustafa
*Tobias Bongers

I cant tell a High end to a low end ball but then I am just a beginner

It's the composite materials used which is more likely difficult to tell by visual confirmation. Include tolerance and weight variance. The aesthetics alone can be quite tricky as well. For me, what's important is how the balls roll and how durable they are. If you want to play with the same balls that could last for many years playing with them, then buy a higher end ones. I wouldn't mind playing with cheaper balls as long as they don't have dents, cracks and chip marks.

if playing for fun which i don't do, i would let a player bring in his own cue ball or set. but not for cash.
or not in a tournament of any kind.
