Sure...

It's been a while since I saw a shot like this. On current tournament tables, it's not possible in a corner pocket. I've never seen it in the side before.

Since Ticketmaster seems to do everything with electronic tickets, I'm not sure physical scalping is possible. Ticketmaster may offer a "transfer" option, where they are not involved directly. Maybe someone here will need to sell a ticket. I think there is no reason to bring your own cue unless...

Here are the changes since August: Friday 314 -> 122 Saturday 58 -> 18 Sunday 316 -> 71 Monday 737 -> 561 Unsold: 16% -> 9%

Either player is allowed by the rules to ask the referee to reconsider his call. In addition, if the call involves a rules interpretation, the player may ask for the TD to overrule the call.

It's hard to find good help.

In the YouTube video, it looks to me like the ref can see the cue ball. If so, he can see the 7 easily. I think he was just looking elsewhere.

On that shot, the first priority of the ref is to see if the blocking ball moves. Sad. And it's not like it just wiggled a little. Tim missed it too. Strange. The good news is that red-shirt won the match. Facebook videos are such dog turds. Here's a link to the original video on YouTube (1:22:54)

Two things I can think of.... Try looking at the site with an incognito window. Maybe it has something to do with your login/identity. Clear out all the cache/cookies/etc. that you can. It's strange that it works on one browser. Maybe it's simpler and the others are using more complicated...

I have played foul but no miss where we depended on the integrity of the opponent. A "reasonable" effort to hit the ball on was expected, but not necessarily a best effort. I have sometimes felt my opponent was not really trying to hit, say, a red near the blue and played it at a speed to leave...

Since the second row often goes straight in the side, all that's left is the third row, even with the 10. Second row used to be the standard, before templates.

This is covered explicitly in Rule 3.3 of the WSR.

Where is Lucy when you need her? And Ricky?

Evidently there was a six-year gap in publication of the BCA rule book. Here is the just-released new edition. List above updated. They just missed getting Deuel, Behrman, and Incardona into the Hall of Fame listings, but they did get Biado.

Neat! That World Championship was in Antwerp in 1974. Kobayashi broke Ceulemans' winning streak at 11. Kobayashi ended up with 10 second-place finishes in the World Championship and a second gold medal in 1984. He was born at the wrong time.

Sadly, the video seems inconclusive. Maybe the original video -- before YouTube massaged it -- has more frames and is clearer. Maybe the commercial cameras are 60 FPS? About the massaging... If you step through the YouTube frames (with the ">" key when paused), you can see that some frames are...

I think that the first frame in which the four has moved is after the cue ball has hit the rail.

It should increase the friction between the cue ball and the bed cloth and rails. That should get rid of some of the bothersome slip and slide that you have now. You could use any unwanted ball for the experiment -- it doesn't have to be a cue ball.

Based on his previous posts, I'm pretty sure the OP lives in Ohio. I think he was implying that the customer service people are in the Philippines. I've given up on trying to buy things from out of the country. It seems like even small items are now subject to tariffs.
