I'll take the over on 694

Completely different temperament and focus level from Earl early on today. Missed a couple of easy safeties though and probably going to go down 1-2 to the kid. Good poise and play from Chang early on though

Did they have 16 ball sets back then? Was it balls 1-16? Or something else?

Suits and ranks like this, but I recall a different order.

keith when you get your table and see how fast it is. you will see that opening the rack is the way to go. and not worrying about a couple balls past the side pockets.

I know one thing, from now on if I was one of these players playing Appleton in the future, I would make sure I use Masters chalk and chalk my tip a little more than needed.

Use the red one.

I am watching Tevez-Bijsterbosch and didn't remember how good they both are. Very fast and fluid game. Maybe one of them to the final!

I haven't read most of the post so I don't know if this have been mentioned. Years ago I played on Gray cloth in a pool room and kind of liked it.
On TV though, it looks horrible, almost to the point of making it unwatchable. Why have they chosen gray cloth?

Funny you mention this, I'm watching table 2 and holy crap does it look dull in there. Even a coworker of mine, who is not into pro pool was wondering why it seemed like everything was washed out. He even said, "I thought pool was played on a green cloth with colorful balls, why are they playing on this?"

Earl is definitely already on tilt watching JJ & Kledio take 2.5 hrs to play a race to 9

You are spot on about shaft diameter and once you starting going smaller than 12.5mm, the weight of the shaft gets
lower unless you artificially added weight. That’s easily understandable since there would be less mass. I had 3 noteworthy cue makers advise me the KW shafts I was looking to have built couldn’t be made without adding an insert.

I scoffed at that notion and just kept searching for cue makers. I mean it is just common sense that all you need is a heavier blank which means being selective with your wood inventory. The fact some cue makers do, whereas a lot of cue makers apparently don’t, have a diverse wood inventory is likely a contributing factor, if not the underlying reason, why I was misinformed by many cue makers I spoke with. Well, I have the shafts in my case & shaft weight does matter. One of my flat faced KW shafts is 12.55mm, 4.1 ozs and is just tip, small ferrule, phenolic black 1/2” collar & KW wood.

Just looking for a full splice blank, but thank you!

Installation ok but same version than yours so I’m not sure it helps.
