The General Rules of Pocket Billiards apply except when contradicted by these specific rules.

1. OBJECT OF THE GAME: Pocket balls to score more points than your opponent. 

2. SCORING: Each ball has  a point value equal to its number (1-15). The first player to reach 61 points wins the game. In the event of a tie, the last player to successfully pocket a ball wins the game.

3. LEGAL BREAK: You must strike the 1-ball first and pocket an object ball or drive four object balls to the rail to avoid a foul. 


4. LEGAL SHOT: You must always strike the lowest-numbered ball on the table first to avoid a foul, but you may use the lowest ball to pocket any other ball on the table. If no ball is pocketed, you must drive an object ball to the rail or the cue ball after striking an object ball to avoid a foul. Any scratch also results in a foul.

5. CONTINUING PLAY: You may continue playing after every ball legally pocketed. If you fail to legally pocket a ball, play passes to your opponent. 

6. FOUL PENALTIES: Opponent gets ball-in-hand behind the head string. There are no point penalties. 

7. SPECIAL FOUL PENALTIES: Three consecutive fouls results in loss of game.
