Going to the Derby - need to buy a cue.

[Ken_4fun]

Heading down to the Derby on Wednesday, and stay a few days.

I am looking a cheaper cue "ie bar beater", for $1000 or less.

How are the cues look this year?

I head to DCC and really enjoy myself, buying, selling and sweating matches.

Ken, we were there last night looking for cues and did not see a lot in the 1-2000 price range. It was fairly disappointing. It seems they either have elcheapo or high dollar. Few in between.

 

[$TAKE HOR$E]

The vendor's will never be like at the Executive, its a shame the generation that started when the tournament went to the casino missed out on when it was really good...

That would be sweet. Did you see if he had any for sale?

I called my brother Brian Roberts and he didnt have any cues either.

I talked to Mike Johnson at Sure Mans booth for a while and I think he said he just had his playing cue. But he will probably take an order.

Sure Man did have a Gilbert jump/break for sale. That will beat most cues at 2 or 3 times the price.

Diveney had some sneakys. That would be a pretty good playing “bar beater” cue.

I have a tiger in the for sale section. I'll be there on Thursday and Friday. If interested
I'll make you a deal on it

That would fit the bill alright!

I’m not there this year, Freddy....I read about Mike Johnson in another thread.

NO, Mike does not have a booth this year. I believe he was there playing in the tournament.

Find Mika or Caroline Pao and get a Mezz if they have some.
