Do you get 2 shots in pool?

Should a foul occur, the opposing player receives two shots, and these shots can be carried on (i.e. if a ball is potted on their first shot, the player still has two shots). When a player gets two shots, they can pick up the white ball and place it anywhere behind the line to gain some advantage over their opponent.

What are the rules for the break shot in pool?
For a break to be legal, at least four balls must be driven to the rails or a ball must be pocketed. Otherwise, the balls are re-racked and re-broken by the same player. A game not legally broken but resulting in a scratch or foul will be re-racked and broken by the opposite player.

Are 2 piece pool cues bad?
Any decent two-piece or even three-piece cue will play just as well as its one-piece cousin, and you can see professional players using them in important games regularly. The main benefit of a two-piece billiard cue is portability. It can be quickly unscrewed and packed into a smaller bag or cue case.
