Ronnie would just be up 6-3 and breaking and Shane still in it

Some people are blaming Alcano for not doing or saying anything. What is the referee there for if not to enforce the rules? Shane committed an error, then he should be penalized. It was his decision to quit which is a sign of poor sportsmanship. Why should he receive any special treatment?
This was just Shane's 2nd match in his group of 15 players. 4 from each group will make the final round of 32. With this loss, Shane now has to win 3 in a row on the losers' side of his group of 15 if he is to make the round of 32.
Are they playing with a special rule that the 10 has to be called even when it is obvious? Because obvious shots do not have to be called under WPA rules.
Edit -- I wonder if they have any other non-WPA rules.
It's a good lesson. Anytime I gamble if I'm playing call the money ball I call it if it's hanging. There is no reason not to.
