So most players know what a safety is (some don't and will always go for it) however, I am curious as to the various situations or circumstances that some players play safe.
What situations have you been in that you decided to play a safety?
How does your safety play differ when playing different games; rotation games, 14.1, one pocket, etc.
What are some situations you have been in that somone played safe on you and you disagreed with why they played it?
Do you agree that two-way shots are part of the game and rules should not be implemented to penalize a player for shooting a shot and safety at the same time?
Personally, I usually play safe when I have no shot or I feel that I have a low percentage chance of finishing the game. (i.e. trouble balls). Occasionally I find myself playing someone that I know doesn't kick well or deal with trouble and I will play an easy safe over a moderate shot.
