If you use Pledge, it's not wax you feel or getting on the balls, basically silicone, and some versions of itadd a bit of mineral oil.

Exactly the point. It won't build up and maybe more important, yellow the ball.

Hi,

Just curious when you guys (Mechanic) level a table would you use a machinists level (link below) or is this to sensitive? If not what is recommended?

Dont buy it! 0.4(something)mm/m thats a scam. regular home depo is 0.5mm/m I use 0.01m/m for tables like 40x + more accurate then this one in amazon. Standart for 12ft pyramid table is 0.01 in one direction and 0.015 in other. Pool is 0.02mm/m and snooker is same 0.01mm/m

This is a strong field, but not nearly comparable to what we used to get at the China Open 9ball. Go back about 10 years and this title was every bit as hard, possibly even harder, to win than the US Open 9ball. The reason was that many of the top Asians always skipped the US Open 9ball, but they all played in the China Open 9ball (as well as the other two Asian based majors, the World 9ball and the All-Japan).

Browsing the list of China Open 9ball winners, the last eight champions were, in order, Albin Ouschan, ,Wu Jia-qing, Joshua Filler, Ko Pin-Yi, Wu Jia-qing, Joshua Filler, Joshua Filler and Wojciech Szewczyk. The first seven of them were WPA World 9ball Champions and the eighth was a World 10ball Champion. Some of the game's greatest superstars never got over the finish line at this very stiff test of cueing.

This title was always the domain of the game's super-elite and it's a shame to see it has lost some of its shine. Since Matchroom took it over in 2019, which led to a much more comprehensive internationally balanced field, the US Open 9ball has, slowly but surely, left the China Open 9ball in the dust in terms of prestige.

The China Open is still a major title for sure, but not quite what it was. Nonetheless, good luck to all the fine players who remain in the draw.

You have the "best" players playing for a team, do you even need a captain? It is not like basketball where you have 5 players on the field with several more on rotation, it is either singles or doubles matches, which in turn provides 3-4 players not playing and can actually coach the players

xue zhenqi is the last surviving chinese player. seems to have beaten konrad and mario quite convincingly

Get some Pledge from Walmart and try it yourself. The slick wears off so you'll have your bare balls left. If you like it avoid anything that says wax on the label. Plain silicone in the can is what users use. Don't know a suitable brand or where to get it.

His best game was Banks! Cole tried to give him 9-6 for 3K a game. Harry busted him!
