In my experience, some guys are more persnickety about their opponent’s chalk being left on the table than others. 3C players and Europeans in particular. I recall one incident involving an amateur 3C player (who shall remain nameless) who courteously handed his opponent’s chalk back to him... the first time it was left on the table.
Also the second time.
The third time, he approached the table and accomplished a high speed sweep of the rail with his cue, sending the offending cube rocketing into a wall where it exploded with a loud crack.
His opponent found himself a new chalk and religiously retrieved it after each of his innings from there on out.

When a player leaves the table and his chalk is not in his back pocket but left on the table I would always put it in my back pocket and next time he got to the table he would be scratching his head looking for it. Sometimes I might end up with a dozen chalks in my back pocket before the idiot caught on.....lol

Point I was making, if someone brings that 30 chalk to my home, to play on my, 1943 Brunswick snooker table, with 760, I will not not let them play. That chalk is greasy and is really hard to get off the cloth.
I do not go into pool balls and knock chalk off the pool tables, I don't give a shot what other people do to their tables, just what they do to my home table

*shrugs* - I didn't think it was all that big of a deal. Oh well. Of course I used to leave chalk on the table for other players as a courtesy - seeing the pissy hissy-fits being tossed about though - I'll try to not do that anymore so you ladies aren't offended and troubled to have to move that great big huge piece of chalk an inch or two.
Best always,
Ched

I'm sorry Mr. Wilson. I was trying to be funny in my first post on this thread, mainly because it was obviously an accident that the chalk was bumped from the rail to the floor. I didn't mean to upset anyone.

I would say that the guys doing minuets are probably not worried about their machismo.

If pool players had to have knowledge of geometry and physics before talking about geometry and physics, all of the aiming threads would disappear.
