I can really see why everybody loves Judd. He's got a lot farther than I expected, and that's because he may have the one crucial thing many young talents (Ding, Cope) seem to lack - strong psychology. But equally, as we all know, snooker isn't about potting balls. Snooker is about building...

I'd say it's 65-35 for Higgins now. I haven't seen him miss so many easy pots in a long time. This is weird since he looks to have created pressure on himself rather than on his opponent. But if he recovers, there's no question as to whose break-building abilities are superior. On average he...

I really can't see how Trump could win the trophy. I admit being wrong about not believing he could get to the final, but let's face it, he's never been seriously challenged by a top class opponent. Ding did the dirty work with Selby for him - and that was it. If a miracle happened and Trump did...

How about Mark Selby Dung by Junhui? I think the QFs were exceptionally tough to predict. I woulnd't have bet any money, and if I'd had to guess, I'd have said Dott, Selby, Williams, and O'Sullivan. Well... Now I'd say with just a little more confidence, Trump and Higgins. We'll see. I'm not...

Bad positioning for the brown ball... too much angle... the cut had to be thin. As a result, too far down the table with the white ball for the next pot - no angle at all on the blue ball, had to play follow. The pink ball was tough, and he missed it. Ding had an even tougher position, but he...

Trump has had a relatively easy way to the semis, which is good for a player like him, as it's given him some momentum. But he's never been put under serious pressure so far. I'd like to see him against psychologically dominating players such as Selby or Higgins. He'd have a much easier time...

Luck should be banned in snooker. And then Bingham probably would have been the one to celebrate after the last frame... Ding got tons of luck there. Of course he gets credit for holding his nerve, and Bingham has only himself to blame for his chaotic play, but still, there was so much luck...

Ronnie... He'll face Murphy, then probably Higgins, then Williams, possibly Allen (I think Allen is underrated, by the way, but now of course we have to factor in his depression). A very tough lot, but that's not the point. Sure Ronnie can beat any of them when he's in his top shape. But he's so...

Ronnie does not have the stability. Sure, when he's good, he's the best, but one lousy patch may completely reverse the situation. I'm not impressed with Trump, either. Against Robertson, it wasn't really a very good performance. Cope was a disappointment, too. Of course, they're both capable of...

I agree with Higgins and Selby being given the highest ratings. I used to love those two, then I lost my respect for Higgins, you know why. Higgins is a class of his own, cool and consistent. Selby is close to his level, and also a very strong player psychologically, already very mature, at...

Well, buyers can get frustrated too. I've been trying to buy a cue according to my specs for over a week now, and still nothing.

Thanks! I don't think I'm ready to spend $200 - unless there's something spectacular that I fall in love with. The problem with online stores is that I fancy a used sneaky; not heavily worn of course, but not all new and shiny either. Also, I don't know what good all those brands are. New...

Still nothing... Come on people... Even just pointing me in the right direction would be greatly appreciated...

Still looking for offers... :(

Hi, thanks everyone for the PMs. It seems I'll need more offers though. I hope I can find something soon as at the moment I'm absolutely cue-less... By the way, this forum is impressive! SW PS: once more the specs: 2 pc classic hustler style, plain, wood to wood joint, no wrap around the butt...

Hi everyone, I'm Slawek from Poland and this is my first post here :) Anyway, and I'd like to buy a classic sneaky pete. By classic I mean 'hustler' style, brown not black, basic design, wood to wood joint, no frills. Can be used, even slightly worn. Has to be 'playable' though, i.e. 100%...
