    I was just saying the same thing. It will be tough for him to admit he is wrong now as he made such a fool of himself and a lot of ego...

    Was the foul issue addressed at all on the broadcast earlier today? TBH I’ve lost a lot of respect for Karl here. If he had just been...

    He shows an actual push with the two frozen balls, but I think he should have first shown a push with a single cue ball to teach people...

    @Bob Jewett was right, of course:) I went to the pool hall tonight but I was too lazy to set up the camera:( I set up the balls both...

    This is just wrong IMO. Shooting into a frozen ball with this stroke can’t produce a double hit. Look at the short video from Dr Dave...

    This is a great clip of why it’s not a double hit but it doesn’t show the difference between a legal shot into a frozen ball and an...

    I like sharing this 22 second clip to illustrate why it’s not a push...

    That's what the rules do in many cases. They define things. In this case they define that shot as legal. That's all there is to it.

    I think Pongers knows the rule and that the balls were frozen. I imagine that the ref was surprised by a shot he had never seen before...

    It defines it as legal because it specifically says it is legal. You can’t define it as legal any more clearly. Rule 3.8 can’t make...

    You have it half right, in my opinion. In the first half of rule 3.7, where the balls are close but not touching, then if you shoot...

    Yeah, weird that he is pointing to 3.8 push shot and not 3.7 double hit. Push shot is a deliberate slow stroke where the tip stays on...
