autism is a strength, volume 843

table 1 kicking of with WC semifinalist michael baoanan vs stuart bingham

table 2 felix vogel vs oi

I got a Rhino, for my GFs McDermott, a couple Christmases ago, and she likes it. That prompted at few others on our 8 ball team to get either shafts, or full cues from Rhino. Everyone is very happy with them.

I've seen ads for Bizu Billiards, and they have a carbon fiber shaft for $103 with free shipping.
Haven't seen anything about it on this forum yet, but I'm sure it'll end up getting reviewed here eventually.
Hard to beat that price for a shaft.

You tend to get what you pay for. Carbon fiber is no exception to that rule.

moritz neuhausen chalks his cue and then sets the chalk down on a diamond. if the chalk doesn't sit perfectly on a diamond, he adjusts it. OCD much??

hennessee looks like a guy from one flew over the cuckoo's nest when he gets going with the chalking routine

In the universe with proper skilled referees such actions are never left without consequences for the player in question. Matchroom's??? Well, you see that yourselves.

only area refs for L128. maybe after the fact he'll get some penalty

So Shaw missed an easy 9 at 9-9 and he used his cue to fling a ball off the table.

I get the frustration but that could have hurt somebody.

The 3 automatic picks for Mosconi could be Thorsten, Lukas and Tyler.

Not sure Johan would be happy with that.

Add Savannah and... alright, Fred - and here you are, you've got a competitive team finally

Fedor has only 8000 points on the one-year ranking list towards Mosconi Cup qualification.

I'd be willing to bet he could qualify even with zilch pts. He's got a lil' edge over Bergman in this department, because Fedor at least bothered to enter a WNT event, so MR's integrity would have been not in any danger, LOL.
It would be wild not to pick Gorst as a wild card for team USA, even if he finishes as low as mid 20ies in MC rankings.

I always find these discussions amazingly funny. Here’s a cheat sheet, IT IS THE POINT FURTHEST AWAY FROM YOUR INTENDED POCKET. The end

Bob Runde is hardly under-appreciated and is a heralded cue maker.
Not only did he co-found Schon but he’s also produced amazing cues.
Then after leaving Schon, Bob ventured into exquisite custom cue making.

Now maybe we don’t talk about Bob’s cues because they don’t come
up for sale that often as a Schon cue or his name. Ever wonder why or
even notice? It’s because Runde cue owners value what they possess.

Is it me or is Fedor super overrated now? He hasn't been able to produce results in a strong international field for a while now.

Idk what's up with him but he's definitely not the same. I hope his business ventures do not take away from his ability to play at the highest level, though I do think it is probably hard to balance.

Agree, Matchroom keep calling him the World Number 1 but that's not really accurate.
