It's Simple! - The object of 6 POCKET is to pocket as many balls as you can from a single rack of 15 object balls. Since you play your own rack, and since your turn is over when you either miss, commit a foul, or run the rack, there are no safety shots.

When your turn is over....it's over, and the next player shoots their rack. Your rack scores are then compared to your opponents to determine who wins. In this way, “premature elimination” of players is avoided because everyone gets the same number of turns.

It's Fair! - 6 POCKET's unique rule set and scoring method (patents pending) bring a never before seen level of fairness to billiards through the Level Play™ handicapping system.

This proprietary system calculates a numeric handicap to add to your rack score when your turn is over. This "turn score" is what is used when comparing scores to rank the players. In this way you are guaranteed an equal opportunity to win.

It's Fast! - Since there's no safety shot, or waiting for the other player(s) to pick and make shots on community balls, every one gets to the end of their turn quicker.

And since everyone's turn is over in one rack, you never have to wait and wait while someone else runs rack after rack.

You'll find you're at the table shooting more 6 POCKET.....more often!

It's Fun! - With the elimination of the defensive play, and the associated simplification of the rules, gone are the days of bickering and animosity at the table.

Better yet, since you are playing against the table and not a specific opponent, you are competing against the entire field - not an individual.

When playing 6 POCKET, you and the other players are just doing the best you can, and it's just more fun for everyone that way.

It's Flexible! - Our rule set begins by defining a "turn" as an individual shooting a single rack and then getting a point for each ball legally pocketed. As a result you can either play single turn games of 6 POCKET, or combine multiple turns into a single "game". Wanna play more? Play more turns, or combine games into a "tournament".

Wanna have more than 2 players per table? We're OK with that...and may the best player win!

It's not as easy as it seems! - We know what you're thinking..."This is too easy." Well, it's not! In fact 6 POCKET offers a significant challenge to even the best players...again by eliminating the safety shot.

Now every shot has the excitement of "sudden death" because if you miss, your turn is over. Since you can't play safe you have to try some shot...any shot! So, shot creativity and risk taking go up as you try to stay "at the top of the leader board".
