What game is this table for?

[Mr Slate]

Please forgive my ignorance but I have never seen a table like this. It looks to me like a bumper pool table without the bumpers. Does anyone know?

Speed one-pocket maybe??

With two groups of reds and yellows and a black ball, I'm betting the game is a lot like 8 ball. It appears they have racked wrong since a ball is dead in either direction.

That's a 7-ball rack. 7-ball used to be on TV. I found it to be pointless but then I didn't care much for Bogus Ball either.

I suppose it's a way to get something like real pool into a small room.

Google, google, google.....

Here is the description on the Olhausen site of the table, which is called The Bantam: https://www.olhausenbilliards.com/bantam/

There they describe a game like 8-ball except the black ball wins any time it it pocketed on a good hit.

Pool for the brain-dead phone addicted kids of today.
