    Wood shafts

    From trial of just about all of them. From the usual Revo and Cuetec, to triple60, Gocustom, Mezz, Andy and other brands western and Asian. All have their flaws, or something that turned me off to them almost immediately, and almost all of them suffer from sounding like tin cans, or a feel I...

    Philippine Open

    Needless to say, that Fedor miss (among other things) has all the WeChat groups banging on about MR being a total fix to coin the SEA market 😂

    Wood shafts

    Seems a lot stiffer than the maple shaft I was using before. Some people prefer stiff over whip/flex. It's not as dead as all the carbon shafts I have tried before. Seems less prone to scratches and dents than maple. It's naturally lighter due to the torrification process. Could probably argue...

    Any action in London?

    Just rubbed the wrong people the wrong way. He didn't get too specific. Didn't see him for quite a while.

    Philippine Open

    Heard the same thing. Some people saying he was a pool room owner, who likes to play for big money. A person at my local hall claims to have played him before. Reckons if he had a FR he'd be pushing 800. Could be bollocks, but the guy has no reason to make it up.

    Philippine Open

    Saw him play China Open the year before last. Nearly burst my ear drums on the table next to me. Lovely bloke with a heavy break.

    He's a wild dude, absolute solid gold entertainment. He'll put money on a coin toss 😂

    MR format racking preferences

    That's what I am leading into I think. If it's chosen for me, I am lining up with whichever side the 2 is placed. If It's at the back, I am sticking with the left. If I am racking my own, with the break box MR style, the 2 is going at the bottom. There's a guy that plays here locally, he's...

    Wood shafts

    I played with a pear wood snooker cue briefly when I first moved to China, was interesting, Couldn't tell the difference between maple and ash to be honest (besides not catching beard hairs from time to time). But the Pear wood was a unique experience. As for pool cues, the margin for...

    MR format racking preferences

    Do you think Skyler was complaining, as another poster mentioned earlier, because the 2 at the bottom made more predictable layouts specific to that match only, or that it is easier in genera when racking the 2 at the bottom in MR formatl? From my observations over the last few weeks, I would...

    Reyes cup 2025.

    Fedor’s shirt touching the 7 had so many people here writing the rest of script for the event. Some people with the full blow conspiracy theory vibes 😂

    Is this you? 😂 I’d love to play you some day. Think it would likely be hilarious. I don’t think noting certain aspects is particularly unusual while practicing the break.

    Reyes cup 2025.

    Just like last year, plenty of people here have already labelled it a fixed carnival in WeChat groups I’m in.

    MR format racking preferences

    Interesting. This is the kind of info or discussion point I was hoping for. I certainly have to say I have noticed from my observations recently, in this format, the 2 at the back has been much more workable than anywhere else. I’ve been recording layout information and it seems to reflect this.
