I thought this was interesting and would appreciate any input you guys have.
It is the last match at league night.
Both players have had a few.
There are three balls on the table, one ball from each group, and the eight ball. All in the same general area.
Player Steve, from my team, plays a safety on Bill. (from the other team)
Bill scratches on his attempt.
Steve takes the cue ball in hand and lines up on Bill's ball. Everyone on our team look at each other in horror as Steve shoots Bill's ball in. No one says anything because we are not allowed to.
Bill does not call a foul. Now the other team is looking shocked as well.
Steve calls the eight ball, and pockets it.
Bill still does not call a foul.
Bill congratulates Steve, they shake hands, and both go sit down.
Steve obviously lost track of which group he had and and is stunned when we told him he shot in the wrong group.
Soooo, what happens? Does Steve win because Bill never called a foul, and accepted the outcome of the game? (They shook on it) Or does Bill win because Steve still has a ball from his original group on the table?
