One Pocket Pool

1. One Pocket Pool – For the Pros

  • Balls are placed into the rack randomly
  • Each player picks a pocket
    • This is the pocket they will have to pot their balls in to for the entire game
  • 1 point is scored for every ball potted into their nominated pocket
  • When a player reaches 8 points they win the game
  • Players lose 1 point every time they foul

Jump Shot Pool

2. Stunt Pool

  • Here the same rules as 8 ball are applied apart from the fact that straight shots are not allowed
  • Players can only make shots using the below
    • Swerve Shot – here the cue is held almost vertical to create a large amount of spin on the cue ball
    • Jump Shot – here the cue ball must bounce over an obstructing ball
    • Bank Shot – Any shot that uses the cushion
  • Feel free to add in your own “stunt shots”

Left handed pool player

3. Opposite-Handed Pool – for a laugh

  • If you’re bored of playing regular pool then why not give this game a go
  • Ask each player to use their cue in the opposite way
  • This will make the game much more difficult ….and a little funnier
