i have also been informed of this rule during a match. i wasnt told they would move me to open, just that i needed to place it in the back pocket. to be honest its really not a big deal. its not like your doing it under time. just throw it in your back pocket in a few weeks it will be like thats where it always was. do i think the rul is silly......YES. but what is my other option, move to open. no thanks.
