where do u have to place the cue ball? where do you have to hit it? and so on... to do a golden break ???

u wanna be a cheat then? just hit the flippin' rack and play the game.

GB's are for stats junkies

sorry then tidnab

Harsh Tidnab, at least explain.

It does look like they are the thing to get with a nice announcement and everything but the users of this site, myself included, have decided that gb's are no more than a trickshot which steals points. This was caused by a number of users mastering the shot.

Though the code was changed so they are far less frquent and predictable, the bad blood still lies. So you will not find receptive answers to your question I'm afraid!

Hope that explains, and trust me this is actually a friendly forum most of the time ( Tidnab) and if you have any otherr questions do not hesitate to ask!

good point magicblack this why golden breaks should turn into a loss because it's hardly fair when you go into a ranked game and lose points of one shot personally speaking it should be turned into a loss or a re-rack.

I think we need a thread merge feature on the forums


It should be pointed out that the stigma surrounding GB's only applies to UK pool. Getting one on any of the other games is still a cool thing to happen.

For the moment true spinner I just wanted to briefly summarise the situation. interesting as it is!
