Prostovoljni snuker: Razlika med redakcijama

There is no penalty for not potting a free shot ball, thus the name "»free shot"«. A "»free shot ball"« is different from a "»free ball"« - the free shot ball can be used to form a snooker.

- volunteering is not '''mandatory''', you can play regular snooker as a strategy to rid all the red balls, especially if the opposition have not yet potted the first and essential red which means they are as yet handicapped and unable to "»volunteer"« colour balls.

- if '''"snookered"''' technically, i.e. even partially, i.e. the white cannot strike/pass by both sides of any red, the this is a snooker. If snookered on the reds the player may not volunteer and must go for a red. If only colours are left the same rule applies to the ball on i.e. if a player is snookered on the yellow he must go for it only. Players must be careful not to snooker themselves while volunteering both while reds and or only colour balls are available - volunteer is not permitted while the ball on is snookered even if one snookers himself while positioning for another "»volunteer"« shot - REMEMBER volunteer shots are not the natural next ball on.

- the '''ball "»on"« cannot be volunteered'''. So if only colours are left, a player cannot volunteer the yellow being the ball on, but he can volunteer the other colours.

- the free ball rule does apply after a foul shot if a snooker on the ball "»on"« is the result. In such circumstances, the player may choose a colour ball as a free ball and pot it for one point (assuming the free ball was based on a red being the ball on) or he may take a colour and declare it as a "»volunteer"« colour and pot it for its colour value or miss it conceding the colour value. Alternately, the player in error may be asked to play again and must play the snookered ball "»on"«.

- with only coloured balls left, the coloured ball "»on"« cannot be volunteered.

"In the/playing the cabbage patch"« when a player starts volunteering the three balk colours, yellow, green and brown balls only to build up a reasonable break.

"In the Army"« when a player has potted the first red ball which is a must before he can start "»volunteering/shooting"« coloured balls at whim.

- a player not yet in the Army cannot at anytime choose to "»Volunteer"« a shot. Failure to get in the Army (only coloured balls remain) ordinarily calls for a "»free round"« of drinks for all in the snooker room at the expense of the failed player.-->
