My winning ball is in jaws, the cue ball is next to the rail at the far end of the table. My opponent does not have an angle to follow the ball in and it’s too far to play the ball and jump the cue off the table. He taps the cue lightly then hits it again creating a double hit foul while pocketing my ball. Does my ball come back up along with his owed ball?
The rules for one pocket say explicitly that the only foul for which the pocketed opponent's ball comes back onto the table is pocketing the cue ball. If some other foul is committed, you keep the ball.
Also.... In a lot of modern tournaments, you are not allowed to drive the cue ball off the table for the foul. It's too dangerous and/or unseemly.
Here is the pertinent wording from the WPA version of the rules of one pocket:
Each ball legally pocketed in one of the foot pockets counts one point for the corresponding player. In addition, balls pocketed in the opponent’s pocket on a foul shot count for the opponent and are not spotted under 10.6 below unless the only foul committed is that the cue-ball is also pocketed.
