    straightline: "Can you provide the logic behind this?"

    Very true. Unless a person has some eyesight issues, everyone is very well capable of aiming a cue ball to the object ball correctly. Next, it comes to cue ball delivery (with a cue stick). Here it is the source of all the troubles.

    International Open 2025

    I think most recent international event where Marlon played was Philippines Open 2025 (part of WNT). (ah, Mike Page was first to mention that!) Here Marlon Manalo is up against Ralf "The Kaiser" Souquet

    Sneak-Peek, Half-CaF Shaft

    It is not possible to upload a video to the forum directly, but it is very much open to links from any other hosting. One could upload a file to Dropbox or any kind of a cloud storage, make a link to share and... share it :)

    Stephen lee

    The Higgins story was complicated. Hence he was not punished as severely as it happened with later cases.

    Sneak-Peek, Half-CaF Shaft

    would you elaborate on your personal reason for that? I've always been thinking, why try to fight deflection? Better be a good scholar of it.

    Sneak-Peek, Half-CaF Shaft

    this one is too short carbon part, I would say, compared to the pyramid cuemaker. His first gen of these trials was 50/50 I recall

    Sneak-Peek, Half-CaF Shaft

    There is one guy who places CF and wood just the opposite, been doing those for over decade I think. But it must be only recently he came up with an idea of three different grades of them, whatever purpose they serve.

    Sneak-Peek, Half-CaF Shaft

    That half-CF cue would be a good match to Aramith Blacks set. Those balls are half black too :p

    Earth Has Tilted 31.5 Inches.

    Alright, 31.5 inches is a bit longer than a standard pool shaft. But just a bit.

    International Open 2025

    TPA .343 by Art Keck (vs Carlo Biado) must be the lowest ever not only in BigFoot events but maybe the whole Accu-Stats storage?

    Two color, 2 1/4” ARAMITH set for AMERICAN (not British) 8 ball game .

    The players can either shake or bank for the break I think I can guess "shake", but what does "bank" look like? Is it competing at a bank shot of any kind?

    International Open 2025

    On one of Arseni's breaks the 10 went to the corner straight-in. And this is with a racking template😖

    International Open 2025

    In modern era of smarthpones in everybody's pocket, a ruler is easily accessible through an app store (download -> install -> measure) :D

    also, as per Absolute Pool, Mosconi Cup team USA perspectives start to get bright, all of a sudden :p

    Matchroom, WNT, Mosconi Cup, and American Pro Pool

    Agreed, I miss World Pool Masters, and it's a shame the event with so deep history all of a sudden got dropped. And World Cup of Pool is (was) so much entertaining! I loved watching playing styles collide within a team.

    Fedor is single now??

    Nope, at the beginning she attended some of the practice sessions and felt it was not her cup of tea. So she kind of was under her father's training all the way through.

    QATAR WORLD CUP 10 BALL, OCT. 28 to NOV. 2, 2025

    Looks like in order to let fans in, they might have to change the venue. Which is unlikely, and hence unfortunate.

    QATAR WORLD CUP 10 BALL, OCT. 28 to NOV. 2, 2025

    Now when she is aware of "qualification story", maybe WNT majors will have qualifying events, eventually. Long overdue, IMO. Emily must be jealous about such a Cinderella story happened not at their tour (MR recently had some of them in darts, so they know how it boosts the interest).

    When are MISCUE and SCOOP Shots Fouls?

    Let me fight your logic a bit on this one. It is specifically intentional miscues that are "undesirable" (because they are used to gain advantage with kind of cheating method), but that would not stand the same for occasional miscues.

    Carbon Fiber vs Maple - Density and Squirt

    Seems to vary between 0.7 and 1.2 mm. "Some break cues or specific heavy-duty shafts may have thicker walls, up to 1.5mm or more, for added stiffness and durability"
