I'm an old relic who plays with a Tad Birds eye maple cue. I've never seen a cuetec before. And I've never heard of a non-compliant break. Someone please educate me. Thanks.

[@ianmastrangelo2427]

Sometimes they modify the rules a bit to make it more challenging for players at this level. So on the break under these rules, the 9 ball goes on the spot, not the 1 ball, and they have to break from the "break box", which is more centered at the head string (kitchen) line. This prevents the players from going with the standard 9 ball cut break from placing the cue ball right next to the rail at the head string which typically sends the 1 ball in to a side pocket and a wing ball in a corner pocket. The compliant part of the break is that it's a "three point" contact system, meaning, that if no balls are pocketed on the break, then either three balls have to pass the head string, or if one ball is pocketed, then two balls must pass the head string, or if two balls are pocketed, then only one ball has to pass the head string, or no balls pass the head string and three balls are pocketed. The idea is to make it harder for them to just break and run with ease because under these rules also, the winner retains the break. Hope that explanation wasn't too wordy lol.

[@jthomas8814]

So my question is why did Ko feel like he needed to run around the table for his jump cues etc., and Chang could literally just stand at the foot of the table, watch the clock dwindle to zero without an extension and continue play as if nothing happened… had he managed the clock as required - Ko wins.

[@AccuStats]

There is an automatic extension when a player's clock reaches "0" the first time. It would have been a foul if he already used his automatic extension. All of the players and spectators new what was happening. If you already used your extension, run for that jump cue.

[@benmoulson]

Can anyone tell me what they’re doing with their cues after the win a rack?

[@nguyenkhanhpham1469]

On top is the score board with moving ball, by move one ball mean they got one rack win. The players move it with their cue.

[@zzzthaoster]

Ko was leading 11-7, he kind a beat himself in this match. He was trying to make too many shots that he missed which he should have play defense instead. He can't make too mistakes like that and expect to still win.

[@whoamifoo9075]

Chang ran out of time 4 times in rack 23 and 5 times in rack 24. Why even have a shot clock or was the reff on break?

[@AccuStats]

A player must "address" the cue ball within the allotted time. He may stay down on the shot even though the clock went to zero. The player is allowed one "extension" per rack if he is not addressing the cue ball. No one has ever taken advantage of addressing the cue ball too long.

Maybe... I know even Chang would probably tell you there are things he should have done differently after most matches. But consider you’re talking about one of the most knowledgeable pool players ever, and a top decision maker who many of the top pros consider the best player in the world. And consider that he was at the table sizing up his shot from different angles... the aerial view we get bends some of the angles and gives us skewed ball positions. And consider those three balls he might get as blockers. And going the other way he would have had a bridge straight over another ball, which means a really jacked up cue. Looked to me like he played his percentages.

[@phillipwilliams2249]

ON THE TOPIC OF SHOULD SLOP BE ALLOWED ? Well lets see what do you gain and what do you lose. The advocates say it adds excitement to the game.. such a statement reminds me of when ignorant people clap when they see a ball slop in, granted theirs shots that werent actually slopped in and the ones that were slopped in sometimes to the unknowing eye appeared to be intentional, but the skilled player and the knowledgeable watcher USUALLY can tell the differance, as far as the added excitement, personally i never get excited over shit in balls..at least not since i had 1 month experiance in game...say when i was 13 yrs old. NOW imagine the players are hill hill for state championship... one player shits in 3 ball then proceeds to run out the easy remaining rack..whereas without the shit the opponent would have run the easy rack..what we gained in some eyes ( the ignorant few) was a bit of excitement. What the opponent lost was his bid for title, that he may have practiced for twice as hard as the lucky ass. What the spectators lost was the answer to the question who is the states champion, simply put absolutely no one knows..they can guess at best...I say the dubious excitement to the knowing is to high a price to pay....Now thats just one shit shot that could have caused this travesty of justice..in reality ive seen numerous shit shots in a few minutes, like we all have, and thats just for state title...how much more terrible for world title, And for the idiot that says its an even chance for both players to slop balls in, i say such an ignorant person is not from this planet, because everyone knows some people are luckier than others on any given day, For the retard that says well it wouldnt be 9 ball without slop, many many games and sports progress thru rule changes to better the event. I say, dont change the rule on any game unless it could change the outcome in an unfair way..say costing player or team the most important thing they have trained for for years and years...Or lets forget players/teams of countries and there hard work and let the few ignorant get some false excitement. Now we all realize ever since we were in 1st grade theres going to be some crybabies who will lay on the floor, kicking their feet, wailing etc. If the more skilled, trained or superior individual has the advantage every time. so the unskilled crybaby will lobby the teacher or parent or principle to allow in a measure of luck. then the namby pamby person of position will say..yeh lets make it more even..as if thats more important than finding the most deserving, i love pool but this one point im so tired of debating for the last twenty years..im ready to stop watching pool and instead just watch two unskilled morons flip a coin over and over to see who,s the best at flipping....how exciting
