Anyone else ever use Irish 8 Ball as a tool?

[Hajidub]

Whenever I find myself in an unbreakable habit of scratching (which doesn't happen often) I've always used Irish 8 ball as a remedy.

For those not familiar, or those who know it by another name; Irish 8 ball is a game where you rack a normal 8 ball rack and break as normal. If you make a stripe then you are stripes. Your objective is to carom every stripe off the cueball into a called pocket. Of course your opponent will do the same with solids. For some unconscious reason, when you play your normal games (8,9, 10), you'll discover a huge decrease in scratches.

Thanks for listening.

Na we figured since we were always to drunk to distingushish the cue ball from the others balls we would have less chance of fouling ,,
