1. There is usually no time limit to make a shot. However, a shot clock may be used if the referee judges that he is delaying the game unnecessarily or in an unsportsmanlike manner, or if event officials require the game to proceed at a faster pace.
2. If you consider that your opponent is playing deliberately or consistently at an abnormally slow pace, you can request an arbitrator. If after a reasonable time of observation the referee judges that the game is slow, he will give a warning to the infringing player or players. After the warning, if the referee still thinks that the game progress is still slow, the game will be placed on a 45-second shot clock.
3. The procedures for the use of shooting clock are the following:
   1. The shot clock does not apply to the shot after the break in any game.
   2. During the entry of a player, the shot clock starts when the previous shot ends and extends for 45 seconds or until the cue taco hits the cue ball to start the next shot. If a player has a ball in hand, the shot clock starts when the player has possession of the white ball and the positioning of balls or ball arrangements is over.
   3. If the player is not in shooting position when there are ten seconds remaining on the clock, the player will receive a ten-second warning from the referee (Announced as “Ten” clear and strong enough to be heard by the player). If the player does not hit the white ball within 10 seconds, it is missing. (AR p 85)
   4. If the player is already in shooting position when the clock shows ten seconds, there will be no warning. The shot clock will stop in ten seconds and the player may exceed the time limit of 45 seconds as long as he does not incorporate shooting position. However, if the player joins the shooting position, the referee will immediately announce “ten”, and the shot clock will resume. If the player does not hit the ball within ten seconds, he commits a foul.
   5. For purposes of time synchronization, “in shooting position” means that the player is in his shooting position with the hand bridge and grip of the usual cue, or if he is using a mechanical bridge, the bridge has been placed for the shot and the block placed in the slot of the bridge, and with the hand grip on the handle of the block.
   6. Each player is allowed an extension of 45 seconds per rack. If both players are on the hill, each player is allowed two 45-second extensions. To use an extension, the player has to announce the referee “extension”. The arbitrator will then respond with “extension” or “extension not allowed.” The procedures for extensions with ten seconds remaining are the same as for other shots.
   7. Any violation of the shot clock rules will result in failure .
   8. The shot clock will stop if the game is stopped to call the referee, and restart when the referee authorizes the player to shoot. In a game preceded by a referee the shot clock will stop if the game has to be delayed to allow the referee to take a position, examine the table or any other administrative detention, at the discretion of the referee will be restarted before authorizing the player to shoot.

1.16 Announcing Bola and Buchaca

5. When his goal ball is to win the game, if he hits the ball with a shot defined as not obvious but does not announce it: his turn ends, the ball is positioned, and the incoming player has to accept the table in position. This rule is not applicable in Ball-8.
6. If he does not call a shot defined as non-obvious and pocket any ball with that shot, his turn ends and the incoming player has to accept the table in position.
7. A shot that was obvious before taking place will count for the player if inadvertently:
   1. It becomes a throw to band because the ball did not go directly to the buchaca sung but it touched two or more bands before being holed in the specified buchaca, or;

3. When possible, the placed balls will be placed attached to the target balls that interfere with other placed balls. If the cue ball is the interfering ball, the ball to be placed will be placed as close as possible to the cue ball without hitting it.

1.47 Jawed Balls

If some balls end up wedged in the mouth of a pocket and any of those balls are suspended above the playing surface, the referee will inspect the balls and judge whether they will end up on the surface of the table or in the pocket, if they are free. fall straight down. The referee will then color the balls according to his judgment and the game will continue.

1.48 Non-Player Interference (Non-Player Interference)

If balls are moved by the action of a non-player or other effect alien to the will of the players, the referee will color the balls as close as possible to their original position and the game will continue. If the interference occurs during your shot and affects the result of the shot, you will shoot again. In any case, if the referee judges that the balls can not be replaced, the game will be repeated and the break shot will be made by the same player. Balls moved under such circumstances do not meet the definition of balls moved and Rule 1.33 is not applicable. (AR p 87)

1.49 Balls Sitting or Moving

1. If a ball settles or moves differently on its own, it will be left in the assumed position and the game will continue. It is not a fault if a ball settles or moves differently on its own while you are pulling. If a ball you are throwing sits while you are shooting, but it does not fall into a buchaca, the result of the shot remains.
2. If a ball that is attached to the cue ball moves when the cue ball leaves its original position when making a shot, whether it was moved by the cue ball or settled on its own, it will only be determined by the referee using its judgment.
3. If a ball is on the edge of a pocket and on its own falls into that pocket after being motionless for five seconds or more, the ball will be returned to the position as close as possible to the one it occupied before falling.
4. If a ball on the edge of the pocket falls on its own when it is making a shot, the decision depends on the next action of the balls:
   1. If no ball passes through the region previously occupied by the ball at the edge, it will reset and the game will continue.
   2. If the cue ball, before contacting another ball, passes through the region previously occupied by the ball on the edge and, without touching other balls, enters a buchaca or remains on the table, both white and objective balls will be returned to your position and you pull again.
   3. If the shot is legal and any ball passes through the region previously occupied by the ball at the edge, including the cue ball or without entering a buchaca, and any of the other balls are touched by that ball at any time of the shot, the referee will try to recover the position before the shot and shoot again. If it is not possible to restore, the game will be repeated with the player who took out again.If the shot is illegal because the cue ball first touches an illegal target ball before it, or any other ball, passes through the region previously occupied by the ball at the edge, it is a foul. The incoming player accepts the target balls in position. If the ball on the edge is designated by the specific rules of the game as the winning ball has to be restored, if it is not the winning ball, it is not restored.
