So I was in a doubles tournament where if you scratch on the 8 and miss its not a loss unless you pocket the 8. It was also stated cue ball fouls only. I ran down to the 8 and over cut it and scratched, in the heat of the moment I hit one of the opponents balls with my cue, I realized I was wrong in doing so and stopped it, put it back in place and apologized. They had ball in hand with an open table. I was told I conceded the game. I tried looking it up later and couldn't find such a rule. The only thing I found is if you move the money ball with your stick, break down your stick, etc. Also the opponents took ball and hand and took 2 shots before asking the tournament director. He called it a loss at that point. Any thoughts on this, or any written rule on this that anyone knows of? I learned a valuable lesson either way, and we did end up winning the set, our last shooter broke & ran to end it so we still won the match.
