could someone please clarify this decision that happened at the golden cue comp this weekend.
player a breaks off cue ball leaves table without hitting any balls,
player b has 2 shots
player b breaks off potting a ball but also the white ball
player a then clears up but leaves no shot on the black so sets it up due to the fact that he thinks he has 2 shots
player b tells player a he had only 1 shot as it was an inoff from the break,player a disagrees so both players go to the organisers for a ruling
the organisers then disagree among themselves but decide that it was 2 shots after lengthly discusion
is that the currect ruling ?
any thoughts

The only way player A should have had two shots in the second frame is if player B didn't break a 'fair break' on the second game. This would happen if he didn't pot a ball off the break, and 4 balls didn't hit a cushion.
As player B potted the white and another ball on the break... so player A only gets one shot!

One shot. Ridiculous that anyone could come to any other decision unless there are further facts that are not in this thread. |

A legal break is defined as 4 balls hitting a cushion, or potting one....therefore the penalty for any foul on the break is only one shot....WRONG DECISION!!!!! |

if indeed it is only 1 shot then the epa need to sort their sh*t out,
by the way it didnt deter our player as he won 3 2 (cheats never prosper)

Actually that's not strictly true. For example if you send the cue ball off the table on an otherwise legal break the penalty is 2 visits to your opponent. |

Isn't it ONLY putting the cue ball into a pocket that gives 1 visit to the opponent?
ALL other fouls incur 2 shots. For example if the CB screwed back into the players cue, the CB flew off the table or 4 balls not touching a cushion. |

So what teams from the Croydon were involved in the Golden Cue comp and how did they get on? |
