they can do whatever they want if i have a good bet with them. and dont worry if they are betting something substantial they wont be on their phone.
if in a real tournament, then and i would tell them if they arent going to pay attention they can take their chances on what happens when they are not looking because i am not helping them.
i dont play leagues as it isnt any interest for me and understand why they look at their phones.

Nope .. this isn’t golf. If you do it it’s up to you. If you’re not paying attention to the game I’m most certainly not.

It's a shark tactic that I use to do but no longer an intentional shark move because it is very common for people to browse the internet and read.
Before cell phones I would bring a book with me and would read when its the opponent's turn to shoot.
In my college days I had my homework out during matches but that was decades ago and people were understanding then.

My phone sits in my case with ringer off during any match where money is involved
Try playing in Providence,
Cell phones and music as loud as a concert. Table beds where you can feel the bass on them. And the TD is the one doing it.
Ship the cash,
Ship the ear plugs is more like it!
It's a Joke
Even if they are watching "How to player better pool" videos ?
I get zoned in, I don't even care what my opponent is doing as long as they're not up walking around. Then I think there is a problem, are they taking a break, wtf are they doing? Wanna play on your phone sitting, I don't give AF. Wouldn't even notice tbh.
Yeah, and they will try and convict you before you've ever committed the act, like Minority Report. Could start giving out trophies and prize monies in advance of actually playing the match too. Only sane thing to do is to remain in bed, as our lives will be rendered redundant in totality soon enough.
I'd still get out of bed for beer and pizza though, AI be damned.
i put it in my cue case and shut off the sound for a couple of holy hours. what others do is up to them. i doubt it has a positive effect on their game, unless they're filming the match

Phones are not as effective as to say bring War and Peace and start reading it during a match.

Just turn out the pool light.. walk away without a word.. let them focus on their phone. bathroom time or smoke break or whatever.. You can just say you thought it was something important so you left them to focus on their task at hand.
in some games there is a time limit per shot. In most cases with casual play it's not observed but you can suggest that as a condition of play if it makes sense under the circumstances to make such an agreement.

Breaking down a cue is a sign of forfeit.
If someone turns the lights off then that is a forfeit.

I don't think they are watching any videos.
Sometimes I text my friend on what to do in between shots. So some can just be reading messages on how and where to shoot.
We do it in code so its faster.
Think of the head coach calling in plays to the QB.
