Barry Hearn just made the same mistake, shot the 3 in with the 2 on the table. He then turned to the crowd and said “who’s decision was this to change the balls?!?” . A lot of players have now done it in the past 2 days. They should just go all-in and make the 8 ball yellow.

Hmm, Emily can't exactly fire him.

Got bored and wanted to look back at the payout compared to the costs to buy each player.

Evan Lunda $130k/20k (+$110k)
Fedor Gorst $65/$46 (+$19k)
Justin Hall $40/$17 (+23k)
Tony Chohan $28/$33 (-$5k)
Roland Garcia $17/$16 (+$1k)
Mark Magi $17/$4,500 (+$12,500)
Sky Woodward $11,800/$23 (-$11,200)
Chip Compton $11,800/$9 (+$2,800)

Expensive, and out of the money
Roberto Gomez $37k
John Morra $27k
Francisco Bustamante $13k
Josh Roberts $13k
Billy Thorpe, Devin Poteet, Jonathan Hennessee, $9k each

Conclusion? Making money from a calcutta is some tough action?

How are players missing seeing the 2? It's the brightest ball on the table. Or are they confusing it with another ball?

Yes, see the pic above that Jayson Shaw posted on FB. The 7 ball used to be the exact same baby blue color that the 2 is now.

MR actually had a full field of 256 players and only four or five no-shows that I counted. Least of any WNT major that I can remember.

Carlos Biado said he stayed home to cope with some recent injuries. Excellent turnout overall, and a surprising number of Asian players.

UK has a lot of amatuer pool players and this event is easy to get to from London.

Cueman has joint and butt size.


Here it is on one I am working on.

I recently purchased a McDermott GS06 cue. Once I removed the weight bolt- it weighed 16.1 ounces. I also have a Koda cue that with the weight bolt removed and a liteweight carbon shaft weighed 15.6 ounces.
