All this whinging about wrong chalk.

They should move table up by a wall and give them the gammy 1/2ft cue

With the shaking spider 😄

It seems the new chalk is superior in all ways.

It causes few bad contacts, and means the tables don't need brushing as frequently. 

Obviously the kicks are the same for everyone, but if it's better all round, just use it throughout.

Neil Robertson said after his last 16 post match interview that he couldn't believe they had not banned it. I agree.

A few clubs have been banning it recently as it means they don't have to re-cover the tables as often. The Taom chalks are about £15 a piece, when you can get a pack of 20 Triangle chalk's for a tenner on ebay.

He's not using shit chalk that affects his game. It's just that it affects the baize so the consequences are the same for both him and his opponent. It's just bizarre they've not banned it at the top level. Having said that, I reckon I'd be banging in century breaks with better chalk 😀

I only tuned in when the reds were in the corner. How the fuck did it get to that? Think I'll have to watch it back. Probably the most obvious re-rack situation you'll ever see, but Mark Allen chose to soldier on because he was ahead, and ended up losing the frame. Madness.
