Yesterday some co-workers were in a pool tournament and with the game on the line one of them called a table scratch on the other (it was indeed a table scratch), took ball in hand, and sank the 8-ball.
Earlier in the game, the scratcher's teammate had chosen not to enforce a table scratch. Whether that's relevant is an exercise for the reader.

The closest poker analogue is probably various situations in Chinese poker.
