If a player requires snookers on the black should the player be forced to concede?

if a player needs snookers on the black the game should end and the one requiring snookers should obviously lose, i'm putting this across because some people play on on the black to waste time and try annoy the other player, any comments?

i think if a player requires snookers with only the black left, i think the game should just finish unless your finishing your break lol

like a 'call frame' you see in real snooker.

To be 100% honest though, it is not against the rules to try for a snooker on the black...

Maybe very unlikely, and bad sportman-ship, but at the end of it all.... if they don't get a snooker, it's only a few shots until you pot it anyway!

i think the game shouldnt finish automatically because it goes down to the black.Because althoughh unlikely it is possible to snooker an opponent on the black by jawing the white ball.

No i think it is a rule that if snookers are required on the black the game finishes unless the leading player wants to carry on, for a break or something.
