    • If the scores are tied, a black ball decider determines the winner of the frame.
    • If the match score is tied 1–1 when time expires, a black ball decider determines the winner of the game.
    • Starting a new frame
    • 20+ mins: Start a full frame and play until the match clock runs out. The player leading when time expires wins the frame.
    • 10 - 20 mins: Start a six-reds frame and play until the match clock runs out. The player leading when time expires wins the frame. All starts are halved, with odd numbers rounded down (for example, 17 becomes 8).
    • Less than 10 minutes: The frame will be decided by a black ball decider.
    • For a black ball decider, a coin toss will determine who breaks. The cue ball is played from in-hand within the D. The player who legally pots the black wins the frame. If either player commits a foul, the frame will be awarded to their opponent.
    • The clock will only stop while the table is reset between frames, for a toilet break or another delay approved by the TD.
    • Timers will be provided at each table.
