Mark King Cue

[DeanH]

Publicity Stunt may be

Endorsements are a way for players to earn a few more shekels to gamble with, as Mark has said a few years ago he was in dire straits with his addiction, maybe it was during that time?
He has been using a JPU cue since about 2012 (may have dabbled in others in between) but is still using that cue this year (as per his interview and JP twitter)

The accuerate cues got a "glowing" review on here a few years back, though i think the glow was from the fire they were most likely used to feed

really? did they? I must have missed those; all the reviews I have seen say the woods are poor, the construction poor, and the price rich

One went to adr, which then went to Dominic Dale and then to Trevor from what i remember, presumably it was used as firewood soon after

The name of it was "zenith", it was something stamford cues made in collaboration with Peter Ebdon. it made you cue up 56 times to every shot and take 4 days to make a century

Only joking, it was a stamford cues thing which was meant to reduce throw on the white and increase spin on the ball. They had Ebdon using a cue with it but its not been mentioned on their site for a few years now.

Its mentioned in this interview http://www.worldsnooker.com/peter-ebdon-qa-2/
