POOL vs. SNOOKER - Equipment, Rules, and Fundamentals Differences

CB weight makes a big difference with CB deflection. More shaft endmass and less CB mass both give more CB deflection.

Mark Selby, who just won the big snooker event in China, talked afterwards about his new cue. He said is old cue had gone down to 8.5 mm after many years of repairs and his new cue was back up to 9.2 mm. He said it took him a while to adjust to the greater deflection (although I don’t think he used that word).

GCIV Update

So you are saying after 17 breaks you had no look at the next ball after the break?? I find that beyond hard to believe. I suppose we have to take your word for it because you refuse to post a video to potentially work out the issue. I wonder how the rest of the world ever played rotation on the earlier GC's when never having a look at a ball after the break.

I don't think it's just the first ball. I think he wants a table that will set up more like this after the break:
