What are your thoughts on this game? What is this equivalent to? A player got 8-6 at Buffalo's and lost a bunch of money to Dennis O. If Dennis was playing him a regular game, what would the handicap have to be to equal break, ball in hand, 8-6?
Joe, do you mean the guy would get to break the balls, then have BIH whether he made one or not? Can he smash break them? That's a yuuge spot, unless the guy is a very poor player. In that case if he can't run out from the open break shot then Dennis would have him.What are your thoughts on this game? What is this equivalent to?

John, you would rather have break and then ball in hand after the break than 13-3? That surprises me!
I figure it's worth 4 balls maybe, so from there we're playing 8-2, and I'm sorry but I can't win playing Dennis at 8-2. He would win easy by just not taking chances and killing me with CB placement.

I saw the title said 8-8, but the post said 8-6 so I wasn't sure. My baaad!The post is about break, ball in hand and then playing even 8-8.
8-6 is what he was asking if that spot was equivalent to.
I agree with you that I think its worth about 4 balls or so. That's why I said I would put that spot at about 9-5 (maybe 9-4 depending on the skill of the person getting the spot).
Still waiting to hear what some others might think though.
