So triangle racks have extra room at the back where the racker places his fingers and pushes the balls forward.
When a rack outline has been drawn on the table, I consider any ball inside or touching the outline to be interfering with the rack. But in the absence of an outline, I've seen players sometimes pushing the balls back in the rack rather than forward in order to allow a break ball very near the back of the rack to remain undisturbed.
Have you seen this too? What do you think of the practice?
