Cue Sports

If you’ve overshocked a pool, first wait for the chlorine levels to drop to a safe range, ideally between 1-3 ppm. You can test the water frequently using a pool test kit to monitor the levels. To expedite the process, run the pool filter continuously and consider adding a chlorine neutralizer if the levels remain excessively high. Once the chlorine levels are back to normal, you can safely swim again.

Mark Allen, the professional snooker player from Northern Ireland, has expressed that he identifies as a Protestant. However, he has also mentioned that he does not consider himself particularly religious and does not actively practice any faith. His focus tends to be more on his sport and personal life rather than religious beliefs.

A snooker hole, or pocket, has a diameter of approximately 4.5 inches (about 11.4 centimeters) at its widest point. The depth of the pocket varies, but it typically measures around 6.5 inches (approximately 16.5 centimeters). The shape of the pocket is designed to allow for the easy entry of the balls while preventing them from bouncing out.

Billiard balls are typically made of phenolic resin or polyester resin. These materials are durable, have a high density for consistent play, and resist chipping and cracking. Some lower quality balls may be made of acrylic or other plastics.

One method - fasten the shaft to a straight pole. It should follow a new shape now.(the pole). Apply moisture and hair dryer as often as possible. In a weeks time, depending on the humidity of the country your in, it should keep the cuestick straight.

You can also add a SMALL amount of vinegar to the water to help the wood become flexible (until dried). Vinegar can discolor the cue though, and you may have to remove some of the finish to get the moisture into the wood of the shaft.

Second method - Hang the cue - hangers can be purchased or made using string and rubber bands - a hanging cue will be straighter than one against a pole because the shaft has a taper (cue shafts do not have a straight side). Use the moisture as described above.

Billiards chalk is not something that can be made at home. It is composed of an extremely fine abrasive similar to that found on very fine sandpaper. In order to make the chalk, you would have to purchase the abrasive materials. One mix that will work for the chalk is silica and corundum. This now needs to be well mixed and placed in a press or mold to compress it into the small cube.

It's a shot in pool where you hit the ball, much like cutting a carrot, making the ball spin around (masse) the obstructing ball. It's an art and takes practice. Some hit the masse pointing the cue vertically.

The billiard ball was not discovered but evolved. The evolution has been described as taking place in both France and in Italy. Both Italy and France had billiard tables, and of course, billiard balls, in the 1400's.

526 balls is the highest record, it was set by willie mosconi on march 19, 1954 at a exhibition in the east high billiards club in springfield ohio. a family member of mine was there, talked about it every year

Pocket billiards is generally agreed to have morphed from an outdoor game played on grass, with mallets very similar to croquet. It was moved indoors, and rails and pockets added as the game evolved. Perhaps the single most important revolution to the game was the addition of leather tips, which added a great deal of control to the "strike".

One key point is that I have described pocket billiards, which is...billiards with pockets. Billiards refers to any game where one has balls that strike each other.

There is no record of the first billiards games. However it is documented it was being played in the 1420's on tables similar to those used today.

Your answer is only an opinion. People say the one with the most titles in the billiards competitions are the best. But about 12% of people who play billiards and are unknown are known to be as good as the pros on tv. Many would say that Walter Lindrum was the greatest billiards player of all time. Snooker, most would say Joe Davis, Stephen Hendry, Steve Davis and Ronnie O'Sullivan.

There are a total of 22 balls in Snooker.

They are as follows:-

15 Red balls - 1 point each

1 White (Cue Ball - used to stike the other balls with a Cue)

1 Black - 7 points

1 Pink - 6 points

1 Blue - 5 points

1 Brown - 4 points

1 Green - 3 points

1 Yellow - 2 points

This is a subjective question. For the average player, a well made production cue is certainly as good as a custom cue. However, the player cannot change the handling or feel of the cue, a big difference with a custom cue, which can be designed for exactly the handling, feel, weight distribution, and of course, looks, that the player wants. Most production cues are much more likely to warp and otherwise deteriorate than a custom cue. However, for the difference in price, it simply means the player should take very good care of the production cue, just as if it was a custom cue that could cost 10 times as much.
