Pool games that didn't catch on

Casino billiards seem to still be operational. Here is a link to the rules:

Mike Masseys card game is also still being sold, so it does not qualify either. Looks interesting:[/url]

Those two games didn't catch on.

Never heard of it. Do you have a link to rules or video?

there were 2 tournaments (I believe)... Mike Gulyassy is the current "World Champ!) ... last event was at least 20 years ago and he won it... LOL.... Grady played it GREAT... they gamble in philly on it and the Fusco's are hard to beat at it....

Simple game... Played like 9 ball (call shot)... with the difference each player assigned a pocket at the head of the table (breaking side). To win the 9 must be made in your pocket. The assigned pocket switches between players with each game..

It is a mixture of 9 Ball and 1 ball 1-pkt... So both the rotational player and one pkt player think they have the advantage .... like anything else the "Player" has the advantage....

as with all things pool ... There was a thread on AZ (lmao)...

And as always THE HISTORICAL RECORD OF POOL (Accu- Stats) has some matches for sale! (it is under the 9 ball section if the link does not work)
