    Referee or CAMERA?

    Last week I was playing in a local tournament and a "close" shot was being played and one of the guys used a camera on his cell phone to video tape the shot. It was hard to determine with the naked eye to determine if the cue ball hit the object ball first or the impeding ball first. The...

    Measles Ball vs. NO Measles Ball

    Just throwing this poll up for all of us WHO ARE ATTENDING this event to have a vote for or against using a Measles Ball. For me, it doesn't matter, just as long as we decide which one it is going to be. (And the sooner we know for sure, the better) Same thing applies to the rest of the rules...

    Sorry to intrude. USED CUES FOR SALE.

    Not selling anything but I recently started a Facebook Group for INDIVIDUALS to sell their used cues. There's nothing to buy unless you are looking for a used cue. The idea seems to be well received with over two hundred people joining in less than 3 days. If you want to check it out or join...

    Ruling Question(s) on accidentally moving object balls.

    What happens if a player moves an object ball OR more than on object ball during his stroke/shot, (after legally contacting the cue ball)? FOR THE RECORD: I'm not talking about gambling rules or house rules; ONLY TOURNAMENT RULES. Sometimes a player may "accidentally" touch an object ball...

    RULE QUESTION for REFEREES & tOURNAMENT DIRECTORS

    11. Keeping track of which pocket is whose 11.1 It is each player’s responsibility to keep track of which pocket is theirs; opponents are under no obligation – other than good sportsmanship -- to correct such an error prior to an opponent’s shot. A ball legally pocketed in the wrong pocket...
