    another rules question ?

    I figured there would be no rule against using multiple cues. We do not allow jump cues in our 14.1 league.

    Legends of One Pocket - cool photo

    Snooker is great to improve your stroke. You have shoot pretty darn true to run balls on the snooker table. When I was houseman at a local room and practiced on the snooker table regularly I was at the top of my game. Of course that was 20- 25 years ago but I’m only 5-6 years older than you
