I expected that my opponent would scratch back because it is a terrible position but I have never played the 3 foul rule in one pocket.
I was hoping he would take one or more scratches before I had to shoot again.
I guess one pocket has become more of a tournament game than a gambling game. Go figure.

You have said a mouth full tournements have changed the rules. And they have made the rules not only worse.
THey are stupit and horrable. And everyone thinks its ok. Because they say we all have too play by the same rules.
Yes but that still doesnt change that they are bad rules.
And in one pocket that rule was made by gamblers THe 3 scratch foul rule. So you couldnt take a million fouls in a row and needer player will shoot.
And its not fair if you have someone in a trap. And the cant get out and you are playing a race to 3 and you are anead 2 too nothing.
And you will have too be the person that shoots first. Because you are up 2 games to nothing. Why would you want to keep scratching and keep scratching.
When you have a 2 too nothing lead in games. And put the session in jepordy off not finishing because both players keep scratching. And too be fair too the player that has the lead.
They only way you can do that is with a fair rule. I always played that way with Bugs and everyone I played.
And when I was Hustling pool. I would never play anyone a game for fun. I would rather practice by myself and learn.
But the tournements have destroid the rules. Thats partley because Of the sponsers TV. And too speed up the game.
People have too understand people running tournemenys are selling something. They dont care who wins the tournement.They are thier too make money.
If it were not for the money they would not be thier. They dont care who wins the tournement or what the rules are.
They do whatever they have too too make money. No matter what rule they have too make too get it done.
And the quickest way to get the tournement over with.
I need for everyone to see this and understand why the rules were made for tournemets not for gambling or the good off the game.
But to change any rule that will help them too do what they have too too make the tournement succesfull..
They are not made for the good off the game. But the good for themselves. And the tournements.
And the rules were not made better too have a better rule in the game.. But the were made for the tournements Goog or bad.
THe rules were made because the made them and the were not legele rules or too better the game.
They were made for the wrong reason. To make tournements succesfull. And Thier were never rules nade for gambling or Hanndy cap games.
THose rules should be way different. But they use the tournement rules for handycap rules the same for both games.
And I see it very clear now that the rules are wrong for tounements and gambling the same.
But thats all proplr have too go by unless they make thier own rules.
So the bottom line is people are not playing by the best or correct rules. But they are playing by the rules too help the tournement to be succesfull. And Thier you have it.
