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.
