Are heavier pool cues better?
A heavier cue will tend to create more CB speed for a given stroke effort. A heavier cue might also be easier for some to keep on line during the stroke, but this is a very individual thing. More weight can also help prevent stroke deceleration.

Are 2 piece pool cues bad?
Any decent two-piece or even three-piece cue will play just as well as its one-piece cousin, and you can see professional players using them in important games regularly. The main benefit of a two-piece billiard cue is portability. It can be quickly unscrewed and packed into a smaller bag or cue case.

What is the difference between cheap and expensive pool cues?
There is a big difference in the manufacture process. Making a Hand-spliced cue is a longer process and often involves extra splicing and includes more exotic woods. The cheapest cues that many suppliers sell are not spliced at all and are in fact painted to look like they are spliced.
