Clearly ref should have reviewed like Nigel Rees in the foul in that Bustamante -Daryl Peach match. ...

Could it be that you keep mentioning vault plate to your repair people and they don't think it's worth correcting you?

Thanks. I think I still have it around somewhere although I don't know what I would possibly play the tape on now, if it would even still play.
I guess Dr Dave is probably taking up the mantle on that now. Although I haven't really looked at that much of his stuff does he have the kind of high-speed stuff you were doing?

I made a threat about his first one here, https://forums.azbilliards.com/thre...radona-making-a-goal-with-his-hands-d.579054/

But now he won again with a foul in the final rack.

I don't know whats up with Yapp and winning the final rack on a foul, however this one isn't his fault - he knew its a foul, he waited for the ref to call it, the ref was just so bad that she didn't know how to distinguish a foul/good shot in pocket billiards when balls are close, just like that other referee dude I forgot his name where he squints too hard to try & see which ball is hit first, thats not how to determine a foul in pool...EVER

The way to tell if its a foul or not is by the cueball reaction, very very very simple. You don't need to squint, you dont need to see both balls and eye-ball it to see which was hit first. It is very easy if you have pool knowledge, just look at the cueball and from a mile away you can see if its a foul or not (That goes for any two closely balls, or also a ball & rail very closely together) check the cueball reaction and you would know.

In a million years if he hit the 8ball first the cueball would NEVER follow the 8ball in its direction, literally you can see the whity going after the 8ball which indicates he hit the pueple first, if you hit the 8ball first then the purple 2nd then the cueball would react differently either going in between both balls (direction wise) or following the purple in its direction.

No need to zoom in, no need to squint, and for viewers with no knowledge about pool please dont try to zoom in, thats not how you determine this.

(I don't know if i stamped it correctly, its the last shot of the match).

P.S. I love Yapp please don't get me wrong. Grats to him for winning the tournament, very well deserved, this time it's the ref fault. I know i mentioned this but look at his face when the 8ball was going to the pocket, he was waiting for the foul call he stared at the ref....also FSR knew its a fault but he's such a gentelmen and followed by what the ref called & went on with it as the crowd kept cheering, he didn't want to ruin the moment for Yapp, FSR is such a nice guy.

Of course. We do it all the time with double hits when the CB and OB are very close together. Just observe the path of the CB after collision.
