When i break and use full top spin i can't get full power, but when i don't use top spin i can.

Just wondering why i can't?

Well in real pool if you a top spin break when the ball makes contact with the other ball from a break, the other balls move as well and it can sometimes take the power off the cue ball and push it back.

Happens sometimes when I play pool

Yeah but i don't know how this affects the power, its the same with back spin too.

You can't get full power when playing any shot with spin.

well, in reality, when you hit the centre your hitting with all the force through the middle of the ball, so there is more power. Im no scientist, but i think thats how it works. Try it on a real table and see for yourself.

i got a real table in my house and that doesn't happen.

It happens with back spin, but with top spin it picks up more power.

breaks bit unrealistic. Especially since your allowed only to break within d, but they say its pub rules but pubs been playing breakoffs anywhere behind line. Usually in real life i use back spin on break, however use back spin on here for break slows ball down, get no breakup of balls.

Think when 9-ball comes up be able to breakoff with backspin and open balls up, as all professionals do it including myself and needs to be more realistic a bit on here.
