In the situation described by the OP his mistake was making the 1 and 2 without a sure breakout. After making those two, his only chance to win was to break up the balls and take a foul on the first opportunity, giving the opponent BIH and hoping he doesn't run out or lock him up again. If they...

If the cue ball hits the rail after the contact with the OB, is a legal shot. If the cue ball hits the rail before hitting the OB, is a foul.

I don't have a Justis to trade in but want to comment on the J Flowers case I got here in Shanghai a few months ago. It is the nuts. Looks good and good protection for cues. For the price, I think cannot be beat. I am in China, but do not know John at all. I bought the case from a pro shop in...

in snooker you must shoot away from a "touching ball" but have never seen it in pool rules

Same here in China. Just pay for table time no matter how many people are playing. Room keeps track by table number. When lights turn on, computer starts time. Lights off, time stops and computer generates bill. If you change tables, just turn lights off, get a bill and move to other table...

If I'm playing in a pool room or a bar league match. I drink water or coke. Just screwing around in a bar, I 'll have a beer or two.

I am living in Shanghai and bought a J Flowers 2x4 case locally a couple months ago. I am very pleased with the workmanship of the case and the protection is gives to the cues.

I'm with Johnnyt. Taking 10-15 seconds to think is not exactly slow play. With experience you will recognize situations you have had before and the action will be more instinctive and faster, but on shots where you have a choice to make, take a few extra seconds to consider all of the consequences.

He is in Shanghai now. Clarification -Not playing out of Shanghai but here at the moment

I like that

The market price for anything is "whatever a willing buyer will pay and a willing seller will accept"

Some local tournaments in China play three fouls.

Technically, if I remember correctly, a pool table has four rails and six cushions.

Relax and have fun. At the end of the day, it's only a game and the results and not important in the greater scheme of things.

Agree completely

From Tiger website We strongly recommend you have a professional cuesmith install your laminated cue tip. If you choose to do so yourself, roughen the back (glue side, it is stamped with an embossed initial or black if a Sniper) side of the cue tip with sandpaper, apply a drop of Insta-Cure+®...

Correct. Scuff it on sandpaper before gluing.

As far as I know, no rule against changing shafts during a match for whatever reason. Only exception I know of is if your opponent is on the hill and shooting, you cannot break down your playing cue.
