Adams was extremely lucky not to walk. A lot of refs would of sent him off for that even back then. I qualified as a ref in 97 and using the cheat word was the quickest way to be testing if the hot water in the showers worked for everybody else.

I used to play in a Bar Billiards league and never saw anybody do a break off shot into the 20 hole , it was also potting both balls into the 50 holes , hence scoring 150 ( red counting double into one 50 hole , a white into the other 50 hole . You were not allowed to do that break off shot more than 3 times , on the fourth shot you had to leave one ball up .
