I bought the new POISON Jump/break this week and I just had to put my 2 cent in, this budget predator has got it going on. They've done a nice job with these and comparing it to the BK2, it breaks just as good and it's a jump cue. I've waited forever for Predator to make a JB so this is as close as I could get. I would definitely recommend it to anybody. If you get a chance give it a shot.
