ref said just that to wu, "you did not warn him that he was on 2 fouls". but it was my impression that he shouldn't need to in a reffed final?

either way, well played final. glad to see felix win

I am pretty sure it was an area referee. Note that Wu did give the warning (after the 3rd foul as he lost track) so clearly he knew to give warnings.

If it was a table ref, then the responsibility would be on the referee to give the warning. But IMO the player still needs to pay attention and make sure the referee does give the warning.

What Is The Best Jump Cue?

I have owned and used a bunch of jump cues. These are the highlights, all excellent and will serve you well:
1) Jacoby
2) Lomax
3) Hanshew
4) Air Rush

I have hit some with a Propel which seems on par with the Air Rush.

All that being said, I recently replaced both my BK Rush and Air Rush with a Sniper 3 J/B. It breaks great and I can jump full cue with it most scenarios, which has increased my make percentage. It's a beast!

I tried the Crical J/B cue. It’s breaks well. I was shocked how easy it jumped over a full ball, and I only kinda know how to jump.

I watched a live stream of an 800 Fargo rate player, competing in a $20 weekly tournament, recently.

the whole idea of a tournament is so anyone can play and have a chance. other wise it isnt a tournament but a takeoff for the best players.

That seems strange to me... I like the idea of let the best player win. I am an average player and I have never won a non handicapped tournament. I have started asking the TD to set my handicap to the max. I don't play in the tournament for the money... That's what my day job is for.

and a good t.d. can find a way to structure it so that all can have a chance to collect.

I agree and I know this attracts more lower level players.
