No, Herb.

I think the channels that sort out the balls as they sink into the
pockets lead the numbers through tight holes to a trap, released by
the
coin, but the cue ball, being too large for the hole, is diverted to
the tray
at one end of the table, so that the game can continue.

I haven't looked inside, so this is speculation.


Your speculation sounds reasonable. Thanks Clarence
