I just thought of a new game. It is called 11 ball

I've got an idea...you rack all 15 balls, with the 8 ball in the center. Then each player shoots the striped or the solid balls be fore sinking the 8 ball.

We could call the game.........Oh, Wait....:eek:



Thats no good. Nobody would like it :D
 
How about a new game called 8 ball, it's like 9 ball but with one less ball. You can agree to a set with some guy at the pool hall... and then when he goes to rack all 15 balls shout "hey, what are you doing?! We're playing EIGHT ball."

I am in the process of forming a new league for my new game. It's called 7 pocket. Plays the same as 6 pocket, only one more pocket.

How about we just play rotation with all 15 balls? Efren seems to like it. We could make it 21 OR 28 balls, we can always add another ball. What does adding another ball do to change the game? Why not use all 15 balls?

I once saw Efren Reyes torture the 28-ball ghost for $80K, shooting every shot with his eyes closed, while the guy betting against him got to kick him square in the junk before every shot. True story.

how about?

How about 15 balls with 8 in the center and you have to hit the solids or stripes in, in rotation order and then the 8.
 
Somewhere on the floor of the BCA trade show in Las Vegas, this conversation may be occurring, If it catches on, forever changing the face of our sport...


New League Promoter: You heard of this thing, 9-Ball?

Poolhall Owner: Yeah, sure, 9-Ball. Yeah, APA, ACS, and BCA organize leagues around this sanctioned game. Its even shown on ESPN Classic, right before pro bowling.

New League Promoter: Yeah, this is going to blow that right out of the water. Listen to this: 7... balls.

Poolhall Owner: Right. Yes. OK, all right. I see where you're going.

New League Promoter: Think about it. You walk into a bar or poolhall, you see 9-Ball game sittin' there, there's 7-Ball game right beside it. Which one are you gonna pick, man?

Poolhall Owner: I would go for the 7.

New League Promoter: Bingo, man, bingo. 7-Ball. And we guarantee just as good a runout as the 9-ball folks.

Poolhall Owner: You guarantee it? That's - how do you do that?

New League Promoter: If you're not happy with playing the first 7 balls, we're gonna spot you the extra balls free. You see? That's it. That's our motto. That's where we're comin' from. That's from "A" to "D-".

Poolhall Owner: That's right. That's - that's good. That's good. Unless, of course, somebody comes up with 6-Ball. Then you're in trouble, huh?

[New League Promoter convulses]
New League Promoter: No! No, no, not 6! I said 7. Nobody's comin' up with 6. You won't even get your stroke goin. Its too easy to run out. You don't get your money's worth.
Poolhall Owner: That - good point.

New League Promoter: 7's the key number here. Think about it. 7-Elevens. 7 dwarves. 7, man, that's the number. 7 chipmunks twirlin' on a branch, eatin' lots of sunflowers on my uncle's ranch. You know that old children's tale from the sea. It's like you're dreamin' about Gorgonzola cheese when it's clearly Brie time, baby. Step into my office.

Poolhall Owner: Why?

New League Promoter: 'Cause you're f*ckin' fired!

:-)

This is from the movie something about mary when he gave that crazy hitchhiker a ride... 7 minute abs lol

HAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA


lol you just 1 up'd one of the best movies of all time. congrats man this had me rolling on the floor laughing.
 
My buddy and I play 12 ball near xmas time. We rack it like a standard 10 ball rack with the 2 extra balls in behind as the tree stem. Looks just like an xmas tree. :p

Then we shoot in reverse rotation (starting at the 12, and the game ball is the 1). Sort of like counting down the final 12 days till Christmas.

Its pure confusion. I broke and ran a rack out one time and we laughed about it for hours.

Earl and Rodney would never be able to run out because of the pause shooting the 5 ball.

...(singing the 12 days of Christmas) 5 ball in the corner... ;)
