1-6 September 2009
The defending champions, Team USA - Rodney Morris and Shane van Boening will return.
2009 PartyCasino.net World Cup of Pool - USA Open Defence v Malta
THE AMERICAN pairing of Shane Van Boening and Rodney Morris face a tough opening match as they look to defend their PartyCasino.net World Cup of Pool trophy.
This year's tournament, which features 32 two-man teams from 31 nations, will take place in Manila, Philippines from Tuesday, September 1 to Sunday, September 6.
USA won the 2008 competition and will meet Malta, whose team includes Mosconi Cup rival Tony Drago, in a mouth-watering first round tie.
These two met in the opening round of the 2007 event and it was the American side of Morris and Corey Deuel who prevailed 8-7 in an absolute classic.
Finland’s Mika Immonen and Markus Juva, runners-up in 2007, have a tricky tie against a Swedish side that includes Marcus Chamat, winner of last weekend's Austrian Open.
England reached the final last year and will be represented by Imran Majid and World Pool Masters Champion Darren Appleton and they will be confident of triumphing against Malaysia.

Ortmann, Hohmann, & Immonen talk about World Straight Pool Championship
Europe's iron grip on straight pool this millennium doesn't seem easy to shake even this year with 2007 World 14.1 Champion Oliver Ortmann, 2006 World 14.1 Champion Thorsten Hohmann, and World #1 Mika Immonen all aiming for the crown. The Dragon Promotions revived event is in its 4th consecutive year alive with help of industry giants such as Predator, Ozone Billiards, Brunswick Billiards, Simonis Cloth, Master Chalk, Aramith Balls, Accu-Stats and the Laser Rack. Comet Billiards will host this year's event which will start play on August 24, 2009 and end August 29. The greatest straight pool players from around the world will arrive on USA's east coast again to New Jersey, and attend this prestigious event to play for the coveted title of World Straight Pool Champion.
If there is one country that can be said is the dominant force in 14.1, that distinction would go to Germany.
The #1 seed of the event is no doubt Germany's Thorsten Hohmann. Hohmann's name has been almost synonymous with straight pool these past few years. "The Hitman" has won the European 14.1 Championship, the 2008 Lucasi Classic 14.1, annihilated the field of 14.1 champions in last years Accu-Stats 14.1 Invitational, and of course became the first non-American to win the World 14.1 title in history. Hohmann also holds the world record for biggest run of 176 during a World Championship.

| Cue Collecting - The Golden Tascarella |
Cue Corner
Presented by Simon "The Diamond" D'Vali
The UK's foremost authority on collectible cues
A cue collecting article concerning a magnificent cue!
Well, I have owned some cues in my time...
...But then something comes along that is truly huge. This thing is absolutely massive in terms of its place in billiard history.
A bit of background about the maker first. Pete Tascarella was a police officer in the same neighbourhood as a certain George Balabushka (you may have heard of him) in New York. Quite often when Pete was on the beat, he used to call in on George and share stories over a coffee. The two became good friends. Pete witnessed first hand the great man working his magic on that famous lathe named Brutus. When George passed away, Pete considered his options and always fancied having a go at making cues so he ended up buying all of George’s equipment and wood stock from George’s wife. Over the years Pete became a Master Cue Builder and players and collectors alike respect his work for the playability and construction. In my opinion, Pete Tascarella is top 5 in the world today. Uncompromising quality with that old school look, feel and construction is something which I love and the type of cues I collect display that.
