Um, yeah I do.

A billion is 1,000 million.*

A trillion is 1,000 billion or a million million.

Yeah, 1,000 x 11 days is 11,000 days or over 30 years. Not a surprise.

* Traditional British/European billion was 1,000,000 million. US switched to the “short “ version (1,000 million) in the 19th century. UK switched in 1974.

Not so much that he can afford not to be careful. I was surprised to hear him say he and Tyler drove together from Orlando to Yuma for the event. That seems like a recipe for arriving tired and unprepared.

This is one of the satellite events. Probably next to nothing on Matchroom sites other than the one link to the Table 1 stream.

The bracket: https://digitalpool.com/tournaments/2026-phoenix-open/viewer

The Table 1 stream coming up at 1:00 est: https://www.youtube.com/@RailbirdsTV/streams

Brackets look like there is a second table streamed. Don't see any links as yet.

If not on the above, maybe one of these:




Presumably Fedor will stream his tables if they allow it: https://www.youtube.com/@FedorGorstPro/streams

Edwards is a ~750 rated touring pro. I think the moment just got to him a bit. IMO, the right shot would be to skim the 7 and try to get the 9 in between. The pockets at the 2023 Spanish Open were famously stingy and players were passing up long open shots like this, so even if you somehow left the long shot into the corner, it's still not a guaranteed sell out.

I understand, but pricing can vary widely from maker to maker. Asking what a certain cue would be worth is fine though. I think you have a great looking cue that would be well worth a refinish.

You’re right. It can vary. Which is why I said a few grand to the skies the limit. I don’t think his question was egregious at all or in any violation of the imaginary rights this forum has to gatekeep individual cue makers pricing.

He’s just trying to get an idea.

We should definitely revisit the rules of this forum. It’s been almost two decades. Things are a lot different now.
