What do you do here.....? rule

I was knocking a few balls around tonight and had a ball very deep in the corner pocket....barely hanging. I needed to get to the other end of the table with lots of traffic in the way........so I studied my options for a while. I decided on a plan and shot the CB. While on its way the OB fell in the hole with the CB following it in a coulpe seconds later.

Now I know that if a ball hangs in the pocket for a full 3-5 seconds and falls in it's replaced....right? What happens in the above situation? Is it a foul, do you replace both the OB and CB to the nearest original spots and shoot over, or what? This has never happened to me before.

You were just practicing - you can do whatever you want.

I think both of the balls are replaced to original positions and you get to do the shot over again... but if you were playing me I'd just call foul and take ball in hand.

Playing in the Open this year?

I'm playing ok.. just started back a month ago so my confidence is pretty low. I played in the Spring Open at Q-Masters and got 7/8th.. Saez and the Mexican guy that got 4th beat me. I really only played good one set during the whole tournament when I beat Wilkie but I'm starting to feel more comfortable at the table each time I play. How about you state champ?
 
I think I would start by leveling the table better :), then I would replace both balls to their nearest spot.
