3 cushion run of 29

[Texas Carom Club]

Shooter's ball goes to head spot and other ball to center table ...or shooter can choose to shoot from frozen position.

Standard for Vietnamese rooms

Some of the Mexican (perhaps other central American) players here have an unusual solution to frozen cue ball situations. They just drop a cube of chalk (from about 10 inches I guess) onto the frozen pair and play whatever results. Anyone else seen this? It may be an "informal" thing, but I've even seen it when they are playing for a few $$.

And I've seen people play with "no kisses allowed". A ball frozen to the cushion is considered an automatic double kiss -- yes, I know, it usually isn't -- so you have to play off the unfrozen ball.

And some people play that a stone dead ticky is worth two points.

I think it's better to learn the big boy rules and play by them.

I’ve seen all three balls freeze mid game, twice! Both times it was in tournaments I was playing.
