    Open Source Three-Cushion Simulator

    I've made various cosmetic improvements over the summer e.g. the somewhat silly cue customisation https://billiards.tailuge.workers.dev/cue But the quest to find new players is still the hard part. Here is a replay of the sites biggest three cushion break of 36! using the new chromeless...

    All 3 balls are frozen to cushions, how to play?

    Well, @mr3cushion I bow down to your superior knowledge on that - would not have thought of it and sure does look scary as the white heads to red then the top spin bites and ... amazing. replay

    Open source snooker simulator

    Hi, I have a hobby project billiards simulator, its open source and free to use, no registration etc. The ball and cushion physics are getting better based on real world papers published by Mathavan, Han and Alciatore. I just added 12ft and 6ft snooker tables, please give it a try and lay...

    All 3 balls are frozen to cushions, how to play?

    In black and white (not red and yellow) Click HIT to see it play, computers think its very sensitive to aim, but a nice spread of 1 o'clock spins will get you there. Luke tailuge/billiards

    Watching Korean (sagu) video .. Who can explain .. What happened at Frame 7:55:30??

    Interesting house rule on this video, where they use a dip stick to see if a ball is closer than 1cm, which according to google translate disallows masse off ball if too close. Luke My sagu game without this rule

    Open Source Three-Cushion Simulator

    Recently added Korean style Sagu on a tiny 5ft table - the ball sizes and physics are the same as regular 10ft table so the feeling is like playing with basketballs - small tables can help beginners so I'll add to this post, it certainly is a fun way to kill time on mobile. I'm a three cushion...

    Korean sagu rule question

    Let's take it easy guys. I certainly was never offended by any comments and value hearing from mr3 . Let's close the thread and start afresh .

    Korean sagu rule question

    Please walk into your local club and play this somewhat makable shot - if the opponent objects ask them to produce the rule in writing..

    Korean sagu rule question

    Definitely as is in by a person who plays it a lot so that I can code it. Let's go as far as saying I'm not believing it unless typed by the hand of a Korean national. Please attach passport number.

    Korean sagu rule question

    I believe @mr3cushion has cleared up the rules on three cushion nicely - but on sagu I'm still not sure (since there are 2 red balls) Standard break off is like 3C (video) but I've seen ppl online trying this other way and I want to know definitively.

    Korean sagu rule question

    Hi, If anyone knows for sure, please let me know, in Sagu 4-ball can you break off using the red beside the cue ball ? Actually in three cushion could you do that also? Thanks, Luke

    Hmm, I have final shot must be 3 cushion not first, that fits my memory of Carom3d. I need to add the penalty points, that sounds like it's non standard in Korea. Thanks. It's certainly not as easy as I imagined when playing, the poison ball is tricky to keep out of play and gathering shots in...

    I've started adding 4ball Sagu rules, but not exactly sure how fouls work. E.g if you accidentally hit opponents ball without making a point do you get penalised a point or just pass the turn? Internet has surprisingly little on this in English.

    I wanted to try this out, and I went to the extreme of 5ft table - it is very cute, balls the size of melons (as Blomdahl said) , a table like this I could fit in my home. It feels easier for sure, but I'm not entirely convinced it is much easier, I quickly ran into kiss problems.

    Fascinating, I added a proximity scoring system in my simulator to make it easier for beginners, all along I just needed to shrink the table :)
