that cue doesn't look common with those uncommon veneer combo. It highlighted the ebony points particularly well. It sure doesn't look bright, but it isn't somber-looking either. What a good looking cue have! :o

hey nice cue! Tho 4 veneers seems to be the usual veneer pattern, that single white veneer, i think, is the most appropriate on the whole design in this one. ...even your cue tip goes well with the cue's color scheme lolz :p perhaps you should start using tan chalk on that cue as well hehehe

interesting, the pin's threading goes only to half of it's length. (i'm not familar to schon pins :) )

Alex, after winning the WPC, was asked this very same question in a tv interview; to which he replied in Filipino: You always should follow what your eyes want to see. If it wants to look at the cueball, you look at the cueball, if it wants to look at the OB then you look at the OB. Now if it...

Ei, the van gogh reprint in your pool room looks terrific :p (I'm more of a lurker in these parts but i'd just want to resurface this one time to compliment you on that lolz!)

how can you tell just by looking? does the length, or width of the points provide clues?

:p tell me this is a subtle joke or something :p :D

i believe it's 20,000$ also; the 65,000$ afaik is the total amount of prize money... ...still, i'd say it's one of the best tourneys held this year :)

that's one nice cue nbc (the flames one); it's nice to have a filipino cuemaker with uniloc radial pin options...you said the only metal in that cue is the joint; so what's the ring in the joint made of?

he's almost like the candid little kid that bravely said that the emperor didn't have any clothes- to a certain extent... I think there is difference between brands and that difference may be undetectable or at neglible to some... now if i may say: imho there is little difference between a 700...

wow! my cue-initis is acting up again :D

saw the match too! archer lately hasn't been invited in the tournaments here (the philippines) due to his slump in form but he's in his old form again! :D ... but i think mika's has dipped somewhat :( and efren's too after failing to win in cardiff, warsaw, and here...

The finish is on of the glossiest i've seen :)

nice :) no wrap from the look of it; is that an ivory joint? and what's that pin?

just a thought, if you put both your pointer fingers side by side, you'll notice that the one you're writing with is slightly bent (away from the thumb)-the consequence of years and years of holding a pen... i suppose my bridging hand is *slightly* deformed compared to my stroking hand
