How is that possible to put wax on the cue ball during tournament???
One way I've seen it done is by having silicone on the glove.
I was in a carom tournament where how the balls react on the cushions is most of the game. Just before we started, and after cue balls had been determined, my opponent took out a cloth and waxed his cue ball. Of course this is forbidden by the rules. and we got a clean set of balls. In carom, some shots are not possible unless the equipment is slippery, and vice versa. If you practice with slippery equipment...
what is the powder allegation on the pockets, what does that do
I'm guessing it makes the balls hang up more. People have been known to silicone pockets to make them easier.
Whether any of this funny stuff is happening seems to be uncertain at this time. I wonder if Yapp's match was recorded.
