Laise.

Im a little unsure on the rules for 10-ball.

If a player (A) misses a called ball, but leaves a safe for the other player (B). Could the other player (B) say that player A should continiue?

I know that if a ball falls in to a pocket, but not called, the other player could say that player (A) should continiue, or he takes the shot himself.

Could anybody explain me the rules carfully, like in a beginner way? xD
I know all the "9-ball rules" in 10-ball, but is unsure of the calling pockets or safes and leaving the shot for the oposite player, etc.

Tnx:D
BTW, bad english.

I thought the 10 ball rules where just like 9 ball.
 
Ya man 10 ball rules !!!

In this kind of situation, player B could only give the hand back to player A if player A pot an uncalled ball or the right object ball in an uncalled pocket...

Not sure if I'm understandable...:sorry:
 
On the seminole pro tour,which is exclusively 10 ball, its played just like 9 ball. Slop counts , no callin of pockets etc

When you rack them the 1 2 3 go in the corners and the 10 in the middle.

10 does not count on the break
 
New WPA Ten Ball Rules -

You must call every ball, you must call them all.
You cannot crawl or jump up on the wall.
If you fall you don't get the ball.
And please do not stall when shooting the ball.
That is not kosher at all.

I hope this helps. Dr. Jeuss ;)
 
What about a two way offensive shot?

What happens say if your are banking the 5 and another OB lays off to the side of it providing a carom to the corner. Can you call both balls? I think not being able to do so could diminish offensive play that you see in 9 ball or at least take away some of the creative aspect of the game.

Im so sick of different rules for different governning bodies

rules are rules

Every third Tuesday of the month and 27th saturday of the year (except leap years and years of the snake) you can give the table back when the opponent hooks you on the 3, 4, or 7 balls (unless the Blue Circle cue ball is in effect, or if he used topwise clock-side english to safe you there). Hope that makes sense. :thumbup:
