Pool Ball Shape Testing

2 grams is at premium tolerances. You should still check sphericity (new word). Plastic being what it is, there's still a chance a perfectly spherical ball may roll funny. Nightmare scenario but Halloween is coming up lol...
Yes, I think that's what I was getting at with my original question. Rolling funny would probably be due to inconsistent density and not roundness.

So, how best to check the roll? On a pool table or a solid marble dinning table?

Pool Ball Shape Testing

All of the ball weights come in at 168-170 grams. I will assume that means all of the diameter sizes are consistent.

2025 Reyes Cup, Oct 16-19, Manilla. Team Asia vs Team World

He is also probably the best team player of the past decade and the defending Mosconi Cup MVP. Nobody is better at dealing with the crowd noise and crazy atmosphere that comes with this type of event. This choice makes perfect sense to me. It wouldn't surprise me in the least if Jayson is the top performer on Team Rest of the World at the Reyes Cup.
Yep, and when Shaws game drops off a little for Whatever reason, I'll always prefer his game to the likes of any other pro. Shaw's the real deal, a Kaci/Filler/Pinoy/Jokester all rolled into one.

Tascarella Merry Widow FS

I’m sure almost anyone would buy them at that price. Yes to me that low on any Tasc is unheard of these days. I feel I have this one priced more than fair currently.
Agreed.
I actually have knowledge of at least one of those MW’s that recently sold in that range. It was a “special” kinda case… Not underhanded, no fakery. Let’s just say date & volume of new purchase matter in perspective.
If you want a new Tascarella you have to expect to exist in the current world. They are worth the cost.

2025 Reyes Cup, Oct 16-19, Manilla. Team Asia vs Team World

The press conference didn't have much news. No word on the prize fund.

The most interesting part was Fedor and Shaw trying to stir things up. Both tried to put pressure on AJ Manas and make him nervous. Shaw also cheekily implied the rest of Team Asia might have had a falling out with Chua. Johann wasn't at the presser and his name only came up once.

Manas, to his credit, acknowledged his performance this year was not as good as he had hoped. But he wasn't backing down and gave a little lip of his own.

There seemed to be an expectation the second year of the Reyes would draw bigger and noisier crowds. Especially with the final two days on Sat-Sun. Shaw was also encouraging fans to be rowdy.

Admittedly, I was unhappy with the Manas pick, and to a lesser extent Sky, but now it's all done I am sort of looking forward to the event.
