yeah, but "бильярд мел" on your box is pretty weird. "Бильярдный" fits there much better, and it is an adjective desciribing a noun (instead of two nouns)

seems like pretty bold of a hint ;) Good news he's out of Top 100, meaning still not a gimme to locate him

I still am in doubt, as learnt about RMC only from AZB forums. Had this statement been true, I'm pretty certain it would have been offered for sale in Russia. But it was not. I had to import it from an American user. Still have a cube I'm using through seldom sessions at the table. If one cares...

nope :) I know the guy, and been battling him competitively once. He is from other bordering country. I won't reveal the name unless he decides to do that himself, otherwise I'd like to respect his online privacy :cool: All I can tell thus far, he is a local pro or semi-pro (a shortstop, by...

As for chalk on the rail missing on multiple photos, that's an interesting question. Maybe chalk was attached somewhere aside, so that it had not ever ended up being on the table rails?

It is only for several years ex-USSR (Russian, Ukrainian, Kazakhstan, etc.) makers started producing their own formulas. The impact they got after Kamui 0.98 and such appeared. Until then there was hardly any mass production locally, most probably billiard chalk was imported. "Russian Magic...

How about one ball one pocket for the same stake instead? :D

I'd prefer several sets race to 25 over a single race to 120. This is a new modern world, after all :p Time to adapt.

Outsville racking templates are not bad. It only takes aome little effort to utilize them properly. In order to do that, one has to be literate, literally ;) There are 4 letters on the bottom: P, U, S and H. So all it takes is just following the instruction manual.

Shaun's speech after the match was a piece of its own, such a class act. During the season, when in China, he had a quick chat with Wu Yize and told him, he will be a world champion some day. Telling this today, Shaun whispered then "I just regret it happened today" :D

since last decider, when Peter Ebdon (as long as I remember correctly) was involved :)

Feels like the best World Championship in years! :love:Last three matches (both SFs and Final) are a must watch. Those last four warriors seemed just unplayable at times. (I feel for Murphy, can you imagine he's now lost 4 finals, after winning his first at 22 as a qualifier. Hopefully he does...

Nope, RMC does not do that with me, otherwise I wouldn't have been using it until nowadays. My take is, it also depends on one's chalking style. I rather swipe the tip with my cube, than try to drill the hell outta it while grabbing in my hand :)

We are in the same boat about Russian Magic Chalk, been using it a lot for years. But I did not notice it being messy (well, it does leave some clearly visible residue on the cue ball if the tip is soft, but only on really strong hits). As for SVB's story here, it must be one very familiar for...

Shane Van Boening informed his FleeceBunk followers that from now on he switches from his "good old" Master chalk to the Titlist, mentioned in the thread/poll title.
