Chalk and bridge is as far as I go.
I'd loan them my tip tool but it's a Kamui Gator Grip and they wouldn't have any idea how to use it.
Spare cue? No way, unless I know the person very well. What if they have a temper and slam the shaft against the rail? ("yeah, give me your address and I'll send you a check in the mail....")

Almost as bad as a guying looking for a bridge while playing me and my stupid teammate gives him mine to use. There was a bridge at the next table, not like he was not gonna find one. There is one on every table there, but sometimes one table ends up with two.
I shoot darts at him, "like wtf you doing" and of course, with my bridge is he able to make the shot, no way with the house bridge... I tell him afterwards, that when I'm playing, that he does not need to be involved with my opponent nor my equipment. Funny thing is, the teammate was mad at me about it, as if I did something wrong by telling him how to behave. Idiot.
Anything but my playing cue ,, I don't want any excuses if I win

Everything except my playing cue. Very few people I would let use my player. We played a team were their better players didn't show up. There were 5 less experienced that haven't been playing very long. They didn't have anyone who could really give them a coach. While I was playing, my brother would give them a coach and viseversa when he was playing. And my brother gave him a couple of good ones! If that's not sportsmanship, I don't know what is! Come on people....its just a friggin game! Too much emphasis on winning and losing. I try to live my life so I'm a winner when I'm standing in front of St Peter.
RJ, I agree -- that was really bad form on the part of your own teammate. It's one thing to want to be a good sport and help the opposing team. It's quite another to end-run your right to your own belongings and offer them up as if they were "community" fare. Doesn't matter about the quality of your bridge vs. the house bridge; that's a moot issue compared to completely bypassing your permission to use your property. I'd say that speaks to a greater demonstration of disrespect than if none of you said anything and let the opponent use the inferior house bridge.

Nothing, nada, zip, zilch, squat. But that's just me
In a tourney or league I use stuff that is not available by the house, chalk, bridge, LD shaft, etc. I have better chalk ( I think) I use an adjustabridge, which can save you in some tricky positions, espeically shooting over 2 balls.
I drag that bridge everywhere, so I'm certainly not gonna help him. I will look over at the next few tables, and gladly find him a house bridge and hand it to him.....I will give him any chalk I see that the house provided, even look around on the other tables.. but not my good stuff.
Now, if they are friends of mine, league or tourney, no problem. But just a random league or tourney guy. nah. It's every man for himself
Quelle surprise...
where is the Jump cue
I think Jump cue should be on the list because it is one of those items that not everyone has and can be Very Critical in a match..
You lock the guy down hoping to get ball in hand and the guy says can I use your jump cue.. Yea Right.. Ill sell it to you!!!

To anybody I might play in a match, tournament, or just for fun, don't ask to use
anything that is mine, don't even think about, cause ya ain't gettin it.
I admit that I once let someone use my jump cue in a match, but it will never happen
again, there's a new sheriff in town.

Awesome! Sportsmanship at its finest right there!
yes, because we all know you're the thoughtful, sensitive and caring type that would bend over backwards to help any old bloke
They get nothing from me but a cold stare. I would not even say a word, just look at them like they are out of their mind.
That's just how I roll.
I have never been a league player, but if I was the same would go for my so-called team mates. They get nothing from me either.
If I were to say anything I would say, "If you are not prepared to play too bad, I'm not your daddy. Would you like to double the bet?"
