I have a question... On 3:52 the referee puts the black ball on the pink spot... Why? I just started playing snooker and in my City nobody even knows what snooker is. I play at home, and I try to find out every rule by watching games... I also read forums etc. And a second question that has nothing to do with the video is: The one who shots first is decided by a coin or a lag shot? And at the 2nd frame the first who shots is the winner of the previous game?
1) If the cue ball comes to rest on the spot of the black ball after potting the black, and there is an empty spot available for both the pink and blue balls, you would *place the black ball on the highest available spot*, which is the pink spot in this case. 2) After winning a frame, the player or team that won the frame typically breaks in the next frame without the need for a coin toss or a new lag. The winner of the previous frame retains the break advantage for the following frame, which is a common practice in snooker. Hope, it was helpful.
