This game is played utilising all fifteen reds and the six coloured balls. The object of the game is to be the first player to pot one hundred and one balls.There is no maximum number of players.

Place all the reds in the triangle and set the reds up on the pink spot as you would do normally. The remaining six colours are then situated in an extra row beneath the reds, making 22 balls total laid out in six rows beneath the pink.

Players then toss a coin for the right to start the game.

The winner hits the white ball from the 'D' into the cluster of reds, with the object of breaking them open into potable positions. (The shot is best played full on, with power and stun to retain position centrally in the middle of the table).

Should no ball be potted, the player then begins his visit from where the white ball has finished. Hopefully a pot is available and the player then has the opportunity to pot as many balls as possible until a miss occurs. In this way points are accrued, with each successful pot scoring one point.

Should the player fluke a pot off the break, then the visit begins from where the white has finished and the player records his first pot. The break continues as detailed above.

Once player one has missed, player two must pot a ball from the position left available to him. In this way their break will begin. Play rotates with every miss.

When the 22nd ball is potted, the white remains where it has settled. The balls are replaced to their original positions and play begins again with the person in play, splitting the pack. Their visit then continues. Should the white have come to rest within the triangle of 22 balls then it, lifted and played from the 'D'.

Should a foul occur (normal snooker rules apply) then 10 points are deducted. Players are returned to zero if they have scored less than ten when the foul occurs.

The winner of the game is the first to 101 balls potted, but in reality both players win, because the entire focus of the exercise is potting and positional play. Elements of safety will still feature throughout the game, especially at the end of a rack and towards the end of the match.

Smaller numerical variations of the game are equally enjoyable, especially at the end of a practice session.
