    No, in APA it's if you pocket TWO balls of the same category then you are that group. If you pocket 2 of one and 1 of the other the table is still open. It's rule 4C in case you wanna check yourself before uploading an incorrect video

      The video is not incorrect. I list one scenario that if you pocket one ball and it’s a stripe in APA you must play stripes. That’s it. Now yes there are other scenarios like the one you listed but i not referring to those I’m only asking people’s opinions on this one scenario.

    We have a local pool club and we are possibly trying Saratoga pool game next. I cannot find anywhere the following rules. If its 9/8 ball combo which rules apply . 1) potting the 8 Ball early on a legal shot who wins? In 9 ball you win in 8 ball you lose. Do you lose or do you win or does the ball come out and you continue? 2) if you get to the 8 and you miss the 8 ball or strike another ball first do you lose? or is it ball in hand for opponent? 3) I see a rule where you take a slop shot or bury your opponent on a safe shot. Something about giving the shot back to the shooter? Not sure what this means. Thanks

    • @PhillyFingers
      @PhillyFingers Před měsícem

      @@Stagerli like normal 8 ball pocketing the eight ball early or in the wrong pocket or knocking it off the table is a loss. You cannot combo the eight in like you do in traditional nine ball. If you miss the eight, but the eight is still on the table. It’s just ball in hand for the opponent. If you strike another ball first before the ball again, just ball in hand. You are allowed to play safe a legal safe. In general, it uses more of traditional eight ball rules. The only nine ball aspect is shooting in rotation.

    I have used this in practice to get in stroke. I don’t understand the “now the ghost breaks” part. What happens if the ghost makes a ball on the break? Are you then playing as the ghost against yourself? Or are you deliberately breaking dry as the ghost to see if you can run out from the resulting position?

  • @JohnJohnson-zq9rg
    @JohnJohnson-zq9rg Před 3 měsíci

    Well then you are lucky they sent you a cue that exactly weight as ordered. I got one that was completely out of balance very butt heavy and not the weight I ordered. I ordered 19 ounce got 19.2 ounce. But with a butt heavy as 15.6 ounce which is way to much for a 19 ounce cue. So be warned when onderring at this company they will not solve the issue best you can get is get your money back, but then they do not want you anymore as customer. You have to accept the cue as is. If you are a serious player I advise stay away from this. They said to me their butts and shafts all have different weights and get combined to be roughly the weight you order. So If you are lucky the cue has good balance or very bad if you are not.

    • @kevintran1745
      @kevintran1745 Před 4 měsíci

      I'm pretty sure he means in terms of performance to cost ratio. The cynergy is usually considered the baseline for carbon fiber shafts in terms of low deflection. Since the SMO deflection is lower then the Revo, by technicality its better for the price. But you're limited to only 2 joint options (at least on the jflowers website). I can't say too much abt the carbon fiber type since cuetec and jflowers are still really vague on what the type of carbon fiber they use but performance the SMO beats it out, but in terms of joint option cuetec is better since it has a joint option for literally everything.

    Bank game that's much more fun (we've played both) ,is 11 point bank. Every rail the object ball hits counts as one point. Has to be a clean shot, balls don't get spotted, you rack again if needed and continue to do so, until someone reaches 11 points. It's a blast and many two, three and four rail shots come into play in this game. Once in a while the table is clear enough for a five rail shot ,too. ALSO.....ANY number of rails is valid in this game. As long as the bank shot is clean, it counts.
