If you plan to play in the World Cup of Pool. I was watching some of these highlights late last night and the Italian team was 5-5 with Reyes and Bustamante going to 8 when something happened that I have never even heard of. The ref called a foul on the Italian player for his arm hair touching another ball on the table as he got down to shoot. Obviously he argued the call but to no avail. They only showed one replay of it that I saw and I couldnt really make out the infraction, and I was watching in HD.

Sorry if this was brought up before but I just had to say something about it.

Strange idea...

It may make you break harder with less wind resistance on your arms...but yer loss in masculinity would counteract the gains.
 
I saw that video I thought he actually moved the ball, more than just fan it. With regards to the hair on his arm, if his shirt touched the ball even if it doesnt move its a foul no doubt so the hair thing should be treated the same.

Hey, if a woman can get called on a hair foul, a man can, too!
 
I had to give up tournaments with the all fouls rules in place. I 3-fouled every dang rack. It's a discriminatory rule if you ask me.

On a similar topic I don't see how Karen Corr keeps from fouling when leaning over the table.
 
I was at an international tournament where the French women kept getting contact fouls from dangling armpit hair. Sometimes you could even see the sweat bead up and fall on the ball. EWWWWW. :eek:
 
Bruno Muratore came back to Manila for the World Ten Ball last month. During one of his matches, the EXACT same ref was overseeing the match. This time he was wearing a fitted long-sleeve shirt though. :D:D:D
 
I'm confused

Shouldn't that be called a FOULICLE?
Should telekinesis be a foul?
 
So I guess these guys shouldn't bother playing? LOL :grin:
