6 Pocketâ„¢ (6 POCKET) is a called shot pocket billiards game played using 15 numbered object balls. The object of the game is to score
as many points - maximum 15 - as possible from a single rack during your turn.
Your turn is the combination of the called shots you take, beginning with a break and ending when you either miss, foul, or pocket all 15 balls from your rack. The 15 balls are racked using a conventional triangular rack. There is no requirement regarding order or placement of the
balls in the rack except the first object ball in the rack is to be placed over the foot spot on the table.

In case of a tie, the play-offs continue until there is a clear winner. I guess the only differences between 6-pocket and straight pool are the break shot, and no continuing play after each rack. It should catch on, especially with lesser players. The players get to break the rack hard, and then shoot any ball they please. Doc |

Went though the site and it sounds interesting. Do you anticipate any locations closer to Mobile or Pensacola? Can this be done on barboxes? I would see a
problem with spotting balls unless the host site opened them. We just don't have much for big tables in Baldwin County. GKs in Bay Minette is the only
place in the county with 9'ers. Maybe someone with the six pocket organization could contact them.
I got joined up. Now if'n we can get someplace to play near me. Pel

Thank you for signing up.You can play on bar boxes or 8 ft.. We are coming down to Mobile soon. Trying to get in touch with Trest so he can show me around.
There will be a guy from Huntsville that's moving down there in a few months. He'll be the person in charge of it in that area. But until then just
give me a call if I can be any help.
