My favorite room is owned by a former Johnson City Champ, a traditionalist. He's picky about his tables, and will allow any chalk as long as the color is close to Master Blue. At his room I use my Blue Diamond or Balabushka. I regularly play on two home tables, one red cloth and one tan. For those I carry Tan Master chalk. I'm OK with the table owner setting the rules, with one exception-don't ever make me use red chalk. I don't ever want to clean a mess like this again.

I can understand you being hot about your shaft looking like that, but c'mon, that's not from one night using red chalk. That took some time.
