Hot Shots - Handicapped - Cat 6 to 8

Rules:-
Blackball rules apply, with the exception of the following:-
1) The object of the game is to accumulate a total of 151 points (1 point per potted object ball), in any order of colour, by separate visits to the table.
2) To commence a game, a coin is tossed or lag. The winning player may opt to break the pack of balls. If no ball/s are potted on this shot, then this player has one further shot. Providing he/she pots a ball, then he/she carries on until they miss a pot. but if the player fouls on the break, they do not get there 2nd shot.
3) The opening shot is the only time a player has two shots.
4) When the first player misses a pot, then the opponent comes to the table, and he/she in turn commences to pot the balls until he/she misses. This procedure continues in player rotation until a player has potted 151 balls.
5) On each visit to the table, at least one object ball or white ball must hit a cushion after contact, or a object ball be potted. Failure to do one of the above will be classed as a foul.
6) If any foul is committed, then the oncoming player has the choice of playing the white ball from where it stops, or anywhere on the bed of the table. NOTE: there is no free shot if you fail to pot a ball following a foul. The next player takes his turn.
7) In the event of any foul, all points from that break are deducted from the score.
8) When all the balls have been potted, then they are re-racked, and play continues from the position that the white ball stopped when the last ball was potted. If the white ball stopped in the racking area (triangle), the white is played from anywhere behind the baulk line. REMEMBER: there is only one shot allowed from the break.
9) All pots must be marked off as they are made on a result sheet.
10) Both players should take it in turns to score, and referee.
