So, last night I played terrible. There were times were I rattled ball after ball. Well, finally got in line and started running the rack (9-ball). I get down to an odd lengthy shot on the 8 and it rattles. Now the 8 ball is sitting in the lower right pocket and the 9 is sitting in the lower left pocket. I was disgusted and conceded the rack. The guy comes up yelling at me that he wants to shoot the last two. I told him it's ok, I conceded already (both balls are hangers on a bar table... I mean come on.) He told me he's going to shoot them, because he's missed easy shots "like this" before. I just laughed at him and said whatever buddy. Now he is pissed off and shoots them anyway.
I don't agree with someone conceding if they aren't at the table, for instance:
If I'm running the rack and the last two or three are hangers, and my opponent gets up and says I don't have to shoot them, because he concedes, then I see that as a shark move. He's not at the table, so he shouldn't be saying anything.
Now, like last night, I was at the table, missed a shot, noticed the table was a wash, and conceded. Why would he get so upset? He was shooting, so I wasn't sharking him.
