What happens if the match leader starts stalling? Anything?

He's incorrect.

Is that as an app or do you have a special timer thingie? Does it take a third person at the table?

Right there is a 30 second shot clock in league play. (Does not go down to 15.)
There's a third person running the clock, our league provides tablets w/an app. There's 5 players per team, so it's been no trouble finding somebody to do it for each game.

Oh also - I've played about 10 matches and seen an all-ball foul just once. Once people know the rules it's really no problem at all.

In league and also on non tv tables, there is no shot clock. But there is a time limit on a match which I think is absurd.

The league certainly DOES use a shot clock and match clock.

They are doing warmup racks on the match tables.

I see they have at least 14 tables. Rasson is the table sponsor.

Lagging now.

I usually have the tenon on the forearm and into the handle. It can go the other way if you need to move the balance point. builder's preference I would say.

As far as altering balance point etc, it does not even have to be at the traditional location. Many ways to skin this cat, including other types of joinery.

Like on this Adam cue. Would this still be called an "A" joint though?

I do it both ways, depending on the cue.

That could also have been for the sound of the unbumpered butt on a hardwood floor.

True. It wasn't said outright in the advertising and we have discussed that here before.

The first TV matches:

Gorst/Henderson on Table 1 starting right now
Oliver Szolnoki vs Felix Vogel Table 2
Shane Van Boening vs Luong Duc Thien Table 3

Well, it will be a little while. Right now we have guys with cues dancing, in a nod to Vincent in Color of Money.
