as an easier version of Rotation, to let my novice students play a rotation game with a lot of traffic:
i thought of an easier Rotation but haven't had anyone trying yet.
sort of Omaha Rotation, where you can start your run at every beginning of inning with the lowest ball and up, the highest ball and down or from the 8-ball (and up to highest ball or down to lowest number ball)
so if you go from 8 to 1, after that 9 to 15 or 15 to 9...
when pocketing the 8ball you would still have choice to go up or down
when 8-ball is pocketed there would be 4 entry balls....the lowest, the highest and for example the 7 (to go down to lowest numbered ball) and the 10 (if 9 were also pocketed) to go to 15
player to pocket last ball on the table wins.
call shot
no BIH, only spotshot after foul or letting opponent play
interested in suggestions and experiences when tried
