As stated in a previous post, I have not played or refereed a game for some time now. So I am wondering why the following rule was changed:
Player A is 31 points ahead with one red remaining. Player B fails to hit the red, (penalty 4 points and player A 35 points in front).
Now, as far as I know, a foul and miss would not now be called, when beforehand, the foul and miss would be called, as player B could still pot the red, followed by black and all the colours to force a re-spot black and then possibly win the frame/match.
If this change is true, can someone tell me when and why this was changed?
Thanks in advance.
