When.

It isn't clear whether you are saying the cb got 3 rails before contacting the third ball.

It did not.

After watching it carefully, I see the most instantaneous of possible contact which would be 3 of course BUT there is no ball shadow under the cushion until the ball comes to rest. So you are correct or it is doctored. Fact is the ball is stable as a top. There is no wobble, just a magical change of direction.

That had to be a fun time ! When a group of top players are brought together for a event then darn few show up for it .

When Shane and Earl came to Billings MT it was a packed house completely sold out until Sunday afternoon was when I showed up and got to meet them both .

Earl asked where I was from and was surprised that I drove 150 miles one way and a good part of the way was in a blizzard just to be there ha ha .
Then in a heavily populated area there's little or no attendance .

Yes I love the game called pool ha ha

Here's what I'll do, with You or Anyone in this thread.

I'll Bet a Minimum of $500.00 USD on this statement!

"A UMB Referee 'Can Not inform/Advise' the Shooter that they are about to 'Shoot the Wrong Ball'!

"The Opponent, if He chooses 'May or May Not' inform the player before He shoots!"

Any takers?

Would you not bet that's not not how it was originally written or not?

It didn’t. It is kind of interesting that we are watching the same video and seeing different things. There is always a gap between the nose of the cushion and the spinning ( wobbling/ rolling off) ball.

I see what you see as far as the nose goes, There is also a clear rebound at the yellow.

Watched the ball carefully there is no shadow on the cushion when the ball changes direction as there is when it comes to rest.
That the ball changed direction anyway make me think forgery.

In 2016 we had an event in the suburbs of Chicago called The Atlantic Cup Challenge. I took my then 6 year old daughter to try to inspire her to play.
A few days ago I was telling a friend about it, looked up who those kids were.
Vitali Patsura and Kristina Tkatch were there.
Also future Mosconi Cup players Shane Wolford and Chris Robinson/Reinhold! Also April Larson and Sierra Reames.
I remember them playing great back then, who would have known how great these players would go on to be!
Also on hand were Johnny Archer, Jeanette Lee, Dennis Hatch, Nick Varner and Allison Fisher.
Barely anyone there, 20-30 people.

CALLING ALL CUE DETECTIVES… ID NEEDED!!!

Poolhalljunkie
Most likely a cue made after or around the time they split, the 5/16x18 pin is the same style pin used by TAD, RB, Joss, JW, and Schick during the same time period. so the pin does not make it an import, the forearm is looks nothing like any import of the same time period. The MOP dots look to have been added after the fact, could have been done by anybody. my .02

My team captain doesn’t consider league play to be a friendly game. Paying attention is part of the game. I don’t like losing on technicalities, but the rules are the rules.

For one-on-one friendly games, I would tell the other player.

I think it depends on the team, but I have seen several times when someone is shooting at the wrong ball, there would be literally a chorus of players saying "Hey, hey, hey!" to try to stop them before they shot LOL. I think if it came from my oppenent's team I would not have the heart to call them out on coaching, although I may say that it would count as their timeout.
