Being the helpful guy you undoubtedly are, you'd just tell us if you knew, right?

Piss off you insufferable *****. Who is us? You're the only one with a comprehension problem when it comes to the word works. So far everyone else seems to understand so again, go look it up

If I knew what it means in this context - especially if I used it - I'd be able to say what the benefit is. Sorry that's not in your skill set, but don't take it out on me.

This (as most sentient beings know) is the relevant definition.

The question is - what is the desired effect?


Oh, don't give me the credit - you clearly don't need any help with that.

What is the desired effect of an 8 ball break?

If you don't know this you should take a week off from pool.

And then quit forever.

God, you're such a predictable douche. Take what out? The fact that you can't even discern what we mean by "works" in the context of breaking the rack in 8 ball?
This is just you, being douchey you. Always the same.
