Hiya Guys,
I was reffing a match last night and the following situation occurred. The incoming player was awarded a free ball because of a foul by the previous player. The incoming playing decided to nominate the pink. He played the pink in such a way that there was only 1 red available to hit (because the pink was still in the way) but could only be hit 3/4 ball. The next guy came to the table and claimed it was a foul because he could not hit the red full ball (so in effect he claimed he was snookered by the nominated free ball). This is the 1st time i have seen this happen and was unsure on the ruling. Any clarifications would be appreciated. I did call a foul by the way and awarded a six point penalty.
Thnx for any responses.
