Pub World Rules - Problem with snooker after foul

Hi,

Upon a foul of my opponent, the cue ball is in the jaws of the pocket and I am snookered on all my balls, at least partially. The game does not propose me a BIH or a free ball, which it should do.

http://www.wepf.org/WEPF%20Rules%202009%20poster.doc :
R. Foul Jaw Snooker
If an opponent fouls and the Cue Ball comes to rest on or near a Jaw (curved part of a cushion), and that Jaw is preventing the player from playing the finest cut possible on both sides of any of that player's own Colour by way of a "straight - line" shot, the player is deemed to be Foul Snookered and all the rules pertaining to Foul Snookers will apply.

Thanks for checking that out.

Yes, that's a known issue.
Not sure when it will be fixed though.
