so if a frame is going slow, will there be an annoying beep at the end of 21st min like in prem league? and if a player hits the kyoo ball at a slow pace at 20 mins 59 seconds and the object ball drops into the pocket at 21 min 01 second, does it count or not?

i should imagine it would count........

your such a big russian muppet at times tanya volvoestateandalabrador

Has anyone else noticed that following any foul you are given ball in hand anywhere on the table?

Ok I don't mind the oneforseven concept, or the idea but it should be ball in hand from the D surely? Also means theres no free ball rule too.

Hmm I don't like that rule

yes i disagree with the ball in hand thing too. makes a complete mess of the snooker.

[RGCirencester]

Means after every foul the oponents goign to make a sizeable break surely??? So a foul doesnt give away 4 points it gives away 4 and then the following 50+ because your obviously going to place the white around the red and black area??

[RGCirencester]

Pink and black remain, you need 2 snookers, pink and black are a long way apart, you lay a snooker, the oponent misses, you place the white 1mm away from the pink lay the exact same snooker with no effort, oponent misses again...Repeat... Auto win???

Theres also point in playing any escape from a snooker to lay on a ball...proper snooker your not leaving anything if u miss, in this one your gunna have to smash it just to make sure u hit it, because your leaving an easy chance wherever the red is for your oponent if you foul.

and whats the point in 21 mins per frame when with the ball in hand rule not many frames will last longer than 10 mins.

scrap the ball in hand thing, it ruins it all

[RGCirencester]

You snooker from the break off, opponent mis-judges, hits the pink (happens quite often), you can place the white wherever you want, you clear up, win? Sit around for 10 minutes while everyone else finishes their matches..


I still maintain its not trying to replace snooker, but I don't see the need to mess with the rules...
If for instance the miss rule has been removed to save time, so lets go further... All spots covered... the pink is potted... lets just bang it down anywhere... somewhere near a direct line behind... because spotting it properly might take a minute of gametime...

so the new ball in hand rule blends snooker and pool together and we get a brand new game called SPOOKER

I agree you can't change the rules majorly and call it the same game... So lets give Spooker a chance before we really condemn it... But I for one already don't like the idea...

i think you dont like the idea of 147 being presented a snooker tournament. but now that we have discovered spooker, lets see how it goes and maybe people will like it and spooker will live long and prosper.

With such a rule, players who get snookered will try to smash the cue ball into the balls to make it sure that it hits something.. If they miss, it's going to be a lot worse than the position they leave on the table.. A bit confusing, I think..

[ja.]

trying out new scoring system and encouraging people to shout, drink, phone one another from opposite ends of the arena and throw popcorn at the players is fine, they deserve it anyway.

but what did the poor little ball in hand rule ever do to you? it lived its quiet live inside the D and now its homeless and confused >.<

but as long as steve davis is happy with spooker...
