More on Rules:
- TAP Rules
- Call Ball, Call Pocket
- "Safe Down" is available/allowable
- Your ego is in charge! In the course of running your balls, if you believe you can make all your balls and pocket the 8-ball -AND- then run all your opponent's remaining balls on the table, i.e., run the entire table, you win the entire set! - just that fast!!
- If, however, before you hit in the 8-ball, you declare that you are going to try to run the entire table, and you miss, you lose two games of the set/race (the game you're playing, plus one more)!
