Pool. Did I just win this match?

[Boris Sprinkler]

From break…potted both a yellow, red and the black.
Got a pack of scampi fries riding on this if the case.

 

[Silas Loom]

No. That’s a foul.

 

[maomao]

Nope. It's a restart.

 

[Boris Sprinkler]

Yes. It cost me a quid. But the rules are ambivalent about such a shot.

 

[Silas Loom]

Nope. It's a restart.

Depends on whether you are playing with a table that gives you the balls back, I suppose.

In American 9 ball pool that's a golden break and a win, but since you say yellow and red I'll assume 8 ball - in which case, re-rack.

Almost certainly blackball pool as played in UK (I assume due to scampi fries).

International rules say a rerack but the reality of having to put an extra quid in means liability for payment may be decided by local rules.

This is the version I am accepting. Now do I start a thread about Scampi Fries been £1.20, considering I’ve just bought 3.

Which went down first?

 

[Boris Sprinkler]

The black was the last out of the 3. I’m just going to bask in the glory of what 3 packs of scampi fries can do to a man.

Years ago I was in a hostel with a pool table...winner stays on...this poser with a stupid hat kept winning....after nearly an hour it was my turn, he broke and potted the black - I claimed a win and he said NO that means he wins automatically - reluctantly I said okay rerack but he insisted it meant he won and his friends backed him up - prick - I'm still bitter

I bet it was a really fucking stupid hat.

I bet it was a really fucking stupid hat.

And it didn't suit him at all.

£1.20? Britain's shame, national outrage.

Aged 15....played one of my first gigs - had a spliff after and ended up at the pool table. Head was spinning, messed up badly. Cool dude in denim with a tash, couple of years older than me:
'Hey Kid, you play pool like you play drums'.

I then chucked a whitey.

I used to mistake them for classical flutists when i spotted them in the wild with their little cases.

Flautist please. Flutist is a horrible Americanism.

Re-rack / respot the black.

Also well done on your achievement (the scampi fries not the pool)

I thought they were yanks.

The rules are clear. If you pot the black from the break it's a re-rack. Doesn't matter what else happens. You could pot every ball with the black going in last and it would still be a re-rack and still your break. Pub rules my round way say you need to stump up the pound too.

Another chum of kalidarkone i see. You cant make me uneat the scampi fries. They are done now, they are in the cycle.

I wouldn't have thought they'd fit in those little boxes.
