Straight pool, eight ball and double push nineball. But I would watch any televised match.
I think 10-ball is the best pro game at the moment, but would love to see more full-rack rotation matches because that's where you can really see separation between the top and lower-tier players. I'm a big fan of Joe Tucker's American Rotation too, and would love to see more pro matches.
9 or 10 ball
I have always loved 9 ball, but I voted for 10 ball. The reason is that 9 ball has become to easy, especially for the pros. 10 ball doesn't break and scatter as much and that makes it a more challenging game. More oppurtunities at the table for both players makes it more watchable for me. Not that I mind seeing a nice 5 pack in 9 ball, but 10 is tougher and more fair to both competitors. I like pro rules also, if you go for a shot and miss, the incoming player has the option to shoot or make his opponent shoot again.
Just my 2 cents and that's probably all it's worth anyway.

bump(er pool)
There's one option that won't get a lot of love,
but people probably would enjoy it more than they think -
Speed pool.
It's hard to get bored when each round is so frenetic and the total match is over in a few minutes.
I never turned off a speed pool match halfway through. Can't say that about any of the others I voted for.

I voted for 9 and 10 ball for viewing. One pocket and 14.1 are great but are tough to watch IMHO.
Who the Eff voted for 7-ball
Should be a 1 month temp ban for sure.
(don't) bump (the table)
(stuck at 88 votes) bump
Cribbage Pool is great............
I played this game last night with a local player and it was great.
Covers every aspect of the game and it is very challenging.

Interesting....elaborate?? Honolulu pretty much covers all aspects as well since you aren't allowed to do any cut shots and are only allowed to kick, carom, bank, combo, masse, jump to make your shots including the 8. I would like to see 2 pros play this for a set to watch the defense aspect that probably would be required as running a full rack this way is pretty fricken tough.
