That's what pocket scales are for
"What if... unbeknownst to you, the object ball you were shooting at was cracked, and when you shot the cue ball at it, the object ball broke in half, with each half rolling like a wheel into a different pocket? What if... in that scenario, the game was 10-ball [call shot, of course] and one half went into your called pocket, while the other half went into another pocket -- which 'half' would count? Would we have to measure each half to see which was larger, to see which pocket was the recipient of 'the most' of the object ball?"
Try that one on for size.

That happened to me one night. Eight ball CALL last pocket. My buddy and I just looked at each other for a while, then started playing darts.

And what if this happened while you were playing one pocket? Then would the larger half be used to break a 7.5-7.5 tie?
I once hit an object ball off the barbox and it hit a passing person on the arm and landed back on the table clean never even hitting the rail. The midget lifting the table wins the hypothetical ideas so far for me. How about switching this up to REAL crazy things that have happened to us all? I'm slightly entertained by this poster. He's thinking outside the box. By the way I like Shane by 18 and I'm wondering who is putting up the 10k for Earl. I would like to sell him the Statue of Liberty.
nothing would change as the ones that win deep down would still know that he's a better player and they only won on paper! and effren would still smile because he is a humble man that knows it because those numbers mean NOTHING
You won't be able to finish a rack. As soon as you take the first shot, a question will be raised and the cue ball will be grabbed!!: "what if it stopped here instead of there????"
What if cows could fly?
If cows and flies could shoot pool what aiming system would they use?
What if cows could fly?
They do...I saw it with my own eyes in the movie Twister a few years back. Now, where did those pigs go?
Would that be called, "giving him the slip"? Or, in tournament-speak, "slipping by" your opponent?
