Abstract: The invention comprises a sliding cue holder device having an upright post with a half circular cylindrical drum member fixed to the bottom of the post so that the cylindrical drum provides a rounded bottom surface for engaging the playing surface of a pool table, a horizontal sleeve is fixed across the upper portion of the post with slots in the sleeve extending from the forward end of the sleeve rearwardly and with tapered inner surfaces in the portions of the sleeve between the slots with the tapered inner surfaces tapering in a converging manner forwardly toward one another, whereby a pool cue having tapered forwardly converging outer surfaces may be inserted into sleeve to engage against the sleeve portions between the slots, with the sleeve portions between said slots being resiliently connected together at their rearward ends to resiliently engage against the tapered sides of the pool cue to fix the pool cue frictionally in the holder device, whereby the cue slider and pool cue may be slid in unison to
