Under BCAPl it is pretty well defined. Any kick, carom, bank or combination is not obvious and must be called. For my own purposes, i will also call any shot which is not a hanger or a simple direct line shot to a pocket. I want my opponent to know what I am doing and do everything i can to...

OR, just take away the "obvious shots not called" option and just call every shot. Easy and no question.

thanks Roy

Pool is BOOMING in China but I think that story about 18 is not true. I know her father and when I left Shanghai a little over a year ago, they had an interest in 3 pool rooms. The first one, called XinXin is a small room and has 4 snooker tables and 6 pool tables. The other two newer rooms are...

Me too. I don't know for sure but would not be surprised if they have played before in Asian tournaments. Pan is in her late 20's and Shu Han looks to be not far from that so they both have been around for a while in Asian pool.

I think double sided tape is the answer. Can buy it everywhere.

Got it but I have never seen it before. I see Pan doing the same now. Thanks

That is really silly if that is how they play. You're my friend so you can break the rules, and the officials don't care. I like the lady players and the WPBA in general but that is really bush league.

I am watching the San Diego WPBA stream. During the Ewa Laurence match, they took a break at 5/5 and it looked to me like Ewa was practicing on the match table during the break. She threw out several balls and wws shooting them. I thought practicing during a match was against everybody's rules...

Black side down.

I like your first choice. If you leave him any chance to shoot the 15, your next shot will be very difficult at best. The way these balls sit, if it's a 9 foot table, any shot in the directions talked about above will involve using the bridge which increases the difficulty, for me at least...

I think BCAPL Rules state something to the effect that obvious shots do not have to be called but banks, kicks and combinations are never considered obvious and must be called. I would think a carom would fall under this same rule as it is not obvious. If that is the case and he did not call...

I watched almost everything Saturday and Sunday and agree it was great. I have seen pool from Taiwan on tv before and this was a typical production. I only could understand part of the commentary but I know that the guy doing the color for the semifinals and finals is the "godfather" of pool...
