Definition: Term for preparing a cue stick’s tip for the next shot. The cube of chalk is lightly brushed along the top of the cue tip, as the stick will adhere better to the smooth sphere of the cue ball upon contact.
Also Known As: Chalking, Chalk It Up, Cube It Up
Examples:
"Chalk up already!" shouted Lieutenant Dan at the pool hall. "Forrest, you must practice chalking your cue or you'll lose the big game next week at base camp!"
