With all the stupid House Rules.
Playing in an 8 ball event today I play with a guy for an hour before the tournament to figure out the rules. I play deliberate combos after the break when the table is open and it's all no problem.
Get in the tournament and suddenly combos after the break are not allowed. They say this is the international rules. I look it up and of course it's not the WPA rules.
Sometimes I enjoy all the funky rules but not when everyone in the same event doesn't even know or play by the "same" rules.
At this point in human evolution we should have figured out one standard set of rules for eight ball that is the same in every corner of the world.
