BatPool

Combination of 8 ball pool and Power Snooker. Game is played for a certain amount of time, total points of each player are calculated to decide winner

Rack

It is setup like so:

We start with a 9 ball rack and surround it with the other stripes as shown above.

Break

Power snooker break rules. At least 2 solids have to hit the cushion for turn to continue, Ball potting isn’t compulsory on break

Points

Every solid is worth 5 points

Every stripe is worth the number on the ball

9 ball is the Bat Ball. It is worth 9 points

Every ball made in the same turn as the Bat Ball is worth double its initial points

If the table is cleared in the same turn as the Bat Ball, you get an additional 100 points

Fouls award 10 points to your opponent

Gameplay

On all shots after break, it is necessary to pot a legal ball in order to continue your turn

Just like the colors in snooker, the stripes in BatPool have to be called (balls not pockets)

In case of a scratch or foul, the cue ball is in hand and all shots on the table are open

Fouls

Snooker fouls apply
