Pool? If you can only play one game?

8-ball, 9ft table, 4.125" pockets... but not pu'er 8-ball 普尔黑八 like is normally played here (10-ball would also be acceptable. Same table).
I enjoy 8-ball the most, as I am most competent at it and being here I play it more often (as it is the game most people play, and an easy way to guarantee a playing partner). I personally prefer 10-ball, especially the safety side of the game.

If it's a desert island scenario, I'd choose 8-ball, as I consider myself pretty tasty at it and often play left vs right hand anyway. But, if only one game existed, I'd choose 10-ball. It's a well-balanced game with no slop, that allows defensive and offensive play.

Ditto. 👍
 
14.1 on a 9 foot table just seems like the best to me. Tried on a snooker table with the pocket cut and, that will drive you nuts
 
How many have tried this game? If you like anything but one pocket, this is the bees knees!
