Behind the 8 Ball

Finally a game of Pool that fits in your pocket and won’t damage your rec room walls … If you play it right …

Behind the 8 Ball is a simulation of Pool played with a standard deck of Cards. Players make shots by pairing up two cards from their hand (by adding or subtracting) to come up with a value matching one of the Pool Balls.

The value of the shots that miss (don't match a ball still on the table) are carried over to the opponent and must be added to their next shot.Thus it is possible, even in missing to put your opponent in a bad position.

There are also rules for making trick shots, scratches, and incorporating rebounds into your shots.
