Call shot or call pocket?
In your area or fave tavern or hall... what is your rule when playing 8-ball, call shot or call pocket? Call shot means calling all kisses and caroms amd call pocket means just call the ball to the pocket w/o calling kisses, rails or inadvertant contacts. I've played both types of house rules and my personal rule of thumb when playing at a new bar is I'll play by any rules as long as I know what the * the rules are so i always ask first, especially in a money game! Please include your area with your answer to help me in my travels. Thanks. LTB

It is always a good idea to know the house rules before you play any game. Here in the midwest we play mostly just call pocket. The reason being there is a lot less room for arguement that way. As you know the argueing can lead to big problems , especially in a money game. And most of the time if you called your pocket the shot was way you intended it to be anyway. So we just save ourselves a lot of trouble that way. So remember to always check the house rules and have a good time !While playing pool, my cue stick freezes while aiming?
Where I live you must call BOTH.Can someone please explain the ball ranking and order of shots for the game of Snooker?
You have to call both. Otherwise the shot does not count if you make it. The opponet than takes his shot.I turned off my popup blocker but it still says i cant play pool?
you said it best. you have to ask! You set the rules at the beginning. For non money games, rules can be made on the spot. I usually just say " I didn't call it that way" That sets a precedent whether it kissed a rail or hit the wrong ball. For money games that's all up to the players, unless you want to be brawling after the gameWhat's the difference between snooker, billiards and pool?
Just like 14.1. Call the ball and the pocket. We play on regulation table with scratches penalized by bringing a ball back up plus any balls pocketed on the shot.A village in France
