anyone know place to play snooker around puchong area? pls let me know the price also.
thanks

the nearest place to you would be in Sunway Pyramid and also XZ at Bali Sunway (now dunno call what but Taylor's Business School is there)...

Glad to know the local LYN Snooker community..

Was using a CityBoy (legendary cheap cue), then moved on to an O'Min 1 piece, then using an on loan O'Min Millenium and now a John Parris Classic (have to state mine is an ori cuz too many fakes around)..

Plays around PJ and still am learning...Snooker has such a steep learning curve and I'm at a disadvantage because I wear spectacles and I don't intend to make one specially for snooker...

Anyone care for a rack or two around PJ, Pyramid or XZ( I haven't been there before but alot of National and State tourney are held there..)

its call a touching ball or the local language kissing ball..you must play away from the object ball if its touching it..

Here is an excerpt of the rules from http://snooker.com.my/game9a49.html?cat=Snooker
Touching Ball:
If the cue ball is touching another ball which is, or can be, on, the referee or player shall state "Touching Ball." Thereafter the striker must play away from it or it is a push stroke (foul). No penalty is incurred for thus playing away if (1) the ball is not on; the ball is on and the striker nominates such ball; or (3) the ball is on and the striker nominates, and first hits, another ball. [If the referee considers that a touching ball has moved through an agency other than the player, it is not a foul.]

wow the cue in berjaya time square very nice leh... the price also NICER

i know of a place the cue even cheaper...its in maluri called comet..which produces the CM1 cues..

CM1 cues costs rm50 or less,but its way better than those found in snooker parlours which are crooked and not straight....it's a good cue for leisure players.

Heard of fiber snooker cues? saw one at cue station, nice colour, firm rebound, but vibrates badly if used hard. RM300 for 2 piece with metal extender

erm..their 2 piece cue is definitely more than RM50 but their CM1 one piece maple is not bad around RM3X..

If there are reply to this thread i'll post up my cue picture...to show off but i can't play..hehe

stick back to the wood cues my friend that's my advise..personal experience, it doesn't give a natural feel and it bends easily..

normal cheap cheap 1 piece wood cue oni cost abt RM40 ma

wow, u all hav ur own cues while i only play with the cues provided at the place tat i play. sometimes i really get mad at the cues, coz it's rough and feels bad to play.

wat is more the head of the cues is off in some bad snooker and pool place........i really mad.......

haha ^^ beginner player here........just play for fun

any gatherings for pool / snooker?

ya ya..lets do that..

suppaman always asking for gathering huh??

the salesman told us 100% wont bend coz made out of hard fiber, from my automotive experiences fiber doesnt flex or bend, but cracks easily if impacted

ops then my bad as i refer this to my old badminton racquets which are made of CF and after leaving them in the car you can see them slightly bended and it cracks easily as mentioned by you...

nvm this is good info for everybody. btw who is up for a game this week in Uptown Damansara? I'm having semester break now

same..when u wanna play?? uptown got place to play?

uptown got place to play meh??? 1U then got la
