I need your opinion on a rule variation I experienced.

In the 'b!tch pool' league I play in, the ruling is that whatever you make on the break, you are suited in...unless you drop one of each, in which case you now are 'open' and can choose.

I have been trying for years to get these women to change that ruling simply because it takes away the advantage of having the break. With this ruling, it has been my experience that Murpy's Law steps in more often than not...meaning that, quit often the suit of the ball dropped is often the less desirable lie on the table.

LOL, this sounds like APA. It never fails, you make 3 stripes on the break and the other 4 are either tied up or you are hooked and have no shot at any of them. :angry: That rule is frustrating to say the least.
 
Lol

That guy is either pulling your leg, or he is a newbie and doesn't know what he is talking about. First off, don't play in bars, just Pool rooms.
Most pool played in bars now is usually by some league's rules, and not bar rules anymore.

Second you only play BCA rules, which is the best league in the country. The APA is a joke, and so are it's rules.
