For the master, cue like a girlfriend, like an inseparable soul mates. They will try to find a cue that really suited him. Size weight, length, diameter of the grip, balance and type of material so special attention. Stik is suitable for a person not necessarily suitable for use by other players.
Error in cue selection can result in less maximal our game.
At the tournament in 2006 Mosconi Cup USA players Earl Strickland and even slammed his cue to fall apart just because sodokannya not match what he wants. Or I have also never seen any other U.S. player, Johnny Archer, broke his cue because he was not satisfied with the results sodokannya. That is the importance of choosing a suitable cue. Therefore, in choosing a cue, just imagine like choosing a girlfriend.
B.cue ball
Cue ball (white ball / gaco) there are various types with each of a different weight. Understanding the masters of the cue ball is not up there alone. For example, the master assumes that the cue ball is played more frequently then the cue ball will increasingly dirty. In effect, the cue ball path will be increasingly difficult to control.
In addition, the lens of the master, cue ball can be seen in 25 points on the cue and cue elevation to the table where the poke at a specific point of the cue ball will result in a specific way as well. 24 points are associated in the short-clockwise and clockwise long and 1 point again is the central point.

Pool table field is a square 2 pieces are combined into a rectangle with an area of 50 inches x 100 inches. On the edge of the table there is some point called the diamond.
