The other day I was playing and we asked someone in the room for an adjudication on the following situation.
Break with the cue ball remaining on the table, two object balls down and one off the table.
Rule adjudication from the resident pro was that the breaker shoots and it's a fair break and the object ball that left the table is respotted.
Is there any variation of the BCA rules that allows for this?
I just read the official rules and they suggested that the opponent should shoot next either from where the break left off or from behind the headstring.
