View Full Version : Why No SHOT Time Limit ?  08-21-2003, 10:15
PM In Uk 8ball pool, you have a minute to play each shot  I just
wondered why there is no shot time limit in 9ball ?  even if
it's 3 mins or so  09-02-2003, 10:54 AM  Cueless Joey

get dq'd. /ccboard/images/graemlins/grin.gif When a contest is
on tv, they have a shot clock. When it's not ( except the WPBA),
shot clock is not usually enforced.  09-02-2003, 11:36 AM I
think the shot clock has a good purpose,...in league play, I
have seen someone(on my team) take 7 minutes to figure out a
bank, only to miss. I commented about how he took so long and
then only to miss,..what was the point.  For the most part the
shot clock, where I play now in tournaments), the players are at
such a high level, that they would never approach the time
limit, especially Tommy.  Tommy only strokes one time, everytime
and pulls the trigger.
