I know i posted this game up a few times awhile ago, i think when DM was still a member. But this game was my game when i was playing those 16 hour days. A friend of myne came home for a visit after serving in the Marines. Said he learned a game, i can't remember if it had a name or not. But it was very challenging and addictive. It has everything you need, speed control, caroms, kicking, and precise pocketing abilities. Nine balls, first shot is ball in hand. Now this is meant for a opponent but you can play by yourself, i do when i get bored from all my drills 
. Otaye nineball, nine shots. The rules, if playing a friend your friend calls the first six shots, which are the ducks, the remaining three cluster of balls are you own choice or pockets. The whole point to the game is to make all nine shots in nine shots or less. If a ball is moved from the pocket (the duck shots) you must pocket the ball in the pocket where it was, so don't move them . If you get snookered behind the three balls, and your opponents would more likely have you pocket the ball you can't see, but no jumping only kicking. So don't get snookered as your opponent calls the shots. The key is to billiard or carom making two balls in one shot as when done making the six shots you have an extra shot to break up the three balls letting you have three balls left with three shots to make them, if you don't make two balls in one shot then you waste a shot breaking up the three balls, get it. But it helps with position, shot making, caroms and judging how the balls react when breaking them up to give you a shot or even better a easy shot to run the three remaining balls. If you miss game is over, your friends turn, if playing alone start all over but you must always pick the hard shot if you end up getting snookered as that might be the shot your friend would have you shoot if playing a friend
Here is how the game is set up. And how i take my ball in hand shot, to make two ball with one shot. Give the game a go and tell me how it is.
