Ik begrijp trouwens alleen dat "fould, and a miss" niet goed...

Wanneer is het alleen een van de 2, en wanneer beide?

quote:

A foul and a miss will be called if a player does not hit the ball "on" first (foul) and is deemed by the referee to have not made the best possible attempt (miss). In this case, the opponent has the option to request that all balls on the table to be returned to their position before the foul, and require the fouling player to take the shot again.

quote:

There are three situations where a miss will not be called even if the striker failed to do a "best attempt":

1)If either of the players is in need of penalty points to win the frame, or if either players would be in need of further penalty points to win the frame after the current penalty is applied, then a miss will never be called. This is to prevent the score difference from increasing indefinitely due to misses in worst-case scenarios.

2)If the points on the table are equal to the score difference, either before or after the penalty is applied, then a miss may not be called, should the referee believe that the foul was not on purpose. This can prevent the score difference from decreasing too much, at the discretion of the referee.

3)If it is physically impossible to play a legal shot, then it must be assumed that the striker is trying their best already, though the striker must still put sufficient strength in the stroke such that the cue ball would reach its target were it not due to the obstruction. This can happen if the cue ball was completely snookered - since jump shots are fouls in the first place, there is no other way this scenario could end.

A special case occurs after a striker fouls and misses in a non-snookered scenario -- that is, when he fails to hit a ball on when there is a clear path to the ball or part of the ball. Should the opposition choose to have the offender play from the position prior to the missing stroke under this situation, then a further failure to provide a best attempt will be called foul and a miss regardless of score difference. A warning is issued, and a third failure will forfeit the frame to the opposition.

Dus alleen een foul als je de bal mist bij de best mogelijke optie volgens de scheidsrechter.

Ronnie was de tweede helft van de sessie niet best en wint het laatste frame met flink wat mazzel

Eerste sessie was hij echter aanzienlijk beter. Achja, laatste sessie wordt nu nog wel spannend.
