This is a game I came up with after reading the rules to Up and Down . The name of the game is X ball 1 shot. Rack X-1 balls randomly on the foot spot. The racker has the option of placing the balls in a pet pattern. 1 point for each additional ball dropped.
Game ends when one person reaches a pre-determined score.
Note that my favorite break shot is to carom the cue ball off of the rack and into a corner pocket. An excellent shot in this is a straight on shot with follow through to drop both the object ball and the current cue ball. If something isn't covered in the rules here, apply rules from eight ball first, then straight pool as seems to apply the best. I only ask that if you play it once or twice you e-mail Jeffrey Bay so that I can see I had an affect on the world.
