  • Urgent problem in rules

    Hello everyone, i just make a bet of 5k with my friend about a scenario. what happens if in the middle of the frame white ball is in snooker where its impossible to hit target ball. for example white just about at the corner of pocket and black ball is blocking the way out totally. other more probable scenario that white is touching the wall and two red are by its side making the figure V and you cant hit anything but red and you have to hit black, pink, blue etc. HURRY!

    You cannot avoid the foul penalty BUT you have to aim the cue ball towards the object ball with enough strength to of hit it

      As I understand it.

      Say the white is surrounded by reds and you're on a colour. You could nominate say the yellow. You then can aim directly at the yellow and hit the white with the required strength to hit the yellow. It's still a foul shot but it's not a miss.

          sorry but what is the ball on?

          first you say Black is in the way, I assume that Red would be ball on, but then you say reds and black block the way?
          Wall = cushion?

              you are right JRC, in an impossible snooker the call of Foul and a Miss would not be called, so the option of replacing the cue ball is not available.
              You still have the two usual options, play your self or put your opponent back in, but no replace cue ball.

                    play from where it is - correct
                    either the non offender plays or he asks the offender to play (both from where it is)

                        If the/a ball on is impossible to hit, for example because the cue ball is in the jaws of a pocket with a ball not on block its path out of the jaw, then you can play either directly OR INDIRECTLY at a ball on with sufficient strength to hit it (in the opinion of the referee) to have hit it had the obstructing ball(s) not been there. In that case you cannot avoid the foul but you will not be called for a Miss.

                        However, if you chose to play the cue ball straight into the pocket (in my example above) then you've made no attempt to play a ball on and a Miss WILL be called (and regardless of the score difference!).
