Name this pool game

Sounds like a fun game...How about "sharks"?

Sounds like fun!

Basketball has a popular game called Horse. ( Player shoots from anywhere, if he makes it the next player has to make the same shot or get the letter “H” and so on until someone is “Horse”. )

What’s a good 3-6 letter word to call the losers of that game on the pool table? Gonna run $5 horse games at a 10-ball tourney while we’re waiting to play.. Nit?

I would call this game C-H-O-K-E-R

I agree with Jay, SUCKER

Now that I think about it it’s all gonna be 4 rail banks and 3 rail kicks type of stuff. Boring. I wanted to do a classic shootout to see who’s got the best stroke not a trickshot competition. Maybe no jumps/kicks/banks allowed. Hmm.

I like "Chump".

You mean like?:

Stroke shots
- draw shots
- - maximum cue ball travel
- - OB far from cue ball
- - with side spin (to get up the table, for example
- - cue ball on/near cushion
- follow shots
- - maximum distance without side
- - with side
Cut shots, OB on an even diamond intersection, mark the tough cue ball position with a coin

How about some 3 or 4 ball run outs with a least one bank.
Put the balls on donut reinforcements. Ball choice on bank.

That’s gonna take too long. Should be 1 shot per player so 10+ people could play

omg

OMG I GOT IT!!!!!!

Two ball ( 7 letters long version or 3 letter "two" short version )

Player A sets up two balls and the cb. Runs out in rotation. If he runs out player B has to repeat. That way you'll see a lot of power draws, stuns and force follows.

or

89 ( eight ball night ball )

or

78

Also "bye" could work, but two ball sounds like a legit game and could one day join the club of one pocket, ten ball etc
