I've been doing research ont the rules of 8 and 9-basll. BCA and VP's 8-ball- mid west are alike except "25. ILLEGAL JUMPING OF BALL. It is a foul if a player strikes the cue ball below center ("digs under" it) and intentionally causes it to rise off the bed of the table in an effort to clear an obstructing ball. such jumping action may occasionally occur accidentally, and such "jumps" are not to be considered fouls on their face; they may still be ruled foul strokes, if for example, the ferrule or cue shaft makes contact with the cue ball in the course of the shot."
umm...i masse and jump offteen, yet VP has never fouled me for it.
vp house rule?
