Think NFL. Two minutes left in the game. Team A is up by 4. What becomes the strategy for Team B. Does Team A continue with its previous strategy? Does the time on the clock add a new dimension to the game? Any fan of either team turning to another channel?
None of us has ever seen a pool match played against a GAME clock. We are only familiar with the SHOT clock.
No, I do not have an answer immediately should the player behind go into a stall in the crucial end phase out of spite. There could be a player so mean of spirit that if he knew he was going to lose he would stall and try to prevent the player who was winning from ever getting to the end of his third game, making them both lose. So I think the player in the lead would need the right to call for a shot clock at some point.
Too many moving parts?
