What is the official rule ? - Before the break, breaker moves and adjusts position of cueball with a part of the cue . Is this a FOUL? question number 2 - During the game after a pocket scratch or any foul does the incoming player with ball in hand HAVE to place the cueball by HAND or is he-she allowed to adjust the position of cueball by positioning it by touching with any part of cue? are these rules strictly enforced?
IPT - Ball in hand fouls??

From what I've seen, even before the opening break, players may not move the cueball with any part of the cue. Period. It is a foul.
The rule was changed I believe, before the qualifiers commenced.
Now it is ok to move the CB with the shaft whenever the player has BIH, including before the break.

That's good to know. It was a ridiculous rule. How can a foul be called (as against Allison in the KOH) before the break? Really stupid. Glad the IPT changed it.
