    Unsportsmanlike Conduct Rule

    Was watching this match between Archer and Zielinski, and at 1:34:32 Zielinski commits an "unsportsmanlike foul" according to the commentator. There was some checking by ref, he got on the phone, and determined it was just an intentional foul. But commentator said it should be -18 points...

    Live Streams?

    Are there any semi-regular streams of 14.1 matches? It seems like a few years ago we had various "world championships" etc on occasion, and some leagues that streamed regularly, and even some European youth type stuff streaming if I remember. Interested in watching any live straight pool...

    Scoring Error in 2025 Euro Champ Match

    Was randomly viewing a match from 2025 European Championship on youtube. Noticed what appears to be a scoring error early in the match. At end of rack at 17:00, they add the 5 Alex got to his 18 for 23, so far so good. Then he runs 6 more and scratches, so score should be 23 + 6 - 1 = 28 at...

    My straight pool scoring app, Straight Pool Deluxe, was just accepted by the App Store. It’s iPad (and iPad Mini) only. I’m working on creating a stripped-down free version to allow people to give it a test run, but for now it’s priced at $4.99. I’ll PM a promo code for a free install to the...

    Random cheating sequence?

    Player A misses. Player B scratches. I guess player A must be off somewhere, bcs player B waits a bit...then continues to shoot. Appears that the game is still going, scorekeeping still occurring. :eek: Anyway, some weekend entertainment. :smile: http://youtu.be/FNXXMni-W-w?t=1h24m42s

    Amazing shot Schmidt vs Hohmann

    Unbelievable call and execution on this shot by John Schmidt. http://youtu.be/PidSnEgR07w?t=4m40s He moved the 4 ball in his previous shot, at 2:44. Wonder if he was planning it then?

    Rule question: three fouls and rebreak

    After three consecutive fouls, does the opponent have the choice to accept the table as is? The rules I first encountered (at bca-pool.com, and also at http://www.wpa-pool.com/web/index.asp?id=119&pagetype=rules#4.11) state that the offending player has to rerack the balls and perform an...

    Basic rule question on scratches

    This always confuses me (very much newbie here). Let's say there are 10 balls on the table at the start of a player's turn. Player makes two balls. On the third shot, he makes the shot called, and the cue ball rolls into a pocket for a scratch. So that last object ball gets spotted, leaving...

    8-ball rules clarification

    A question has come up regarding scratching on the 8-ball. The rule in question is this (from http://home.bca-pool.com/associations/7744/files/EightBall_January2008.pdf): "The shooter loses if he (a) fouls when pocketing the eight ball;" I interpreted this as "The shooter loses if he fouls...
