BOOT'EM

The TD invites all players to a private training table. Players will sit in alphabetical order.
Every player has a turn to shoot and pot one ball. (JUST ONE SHOT) If you make a ball, then you stay in the tourney. If you miss then you are out of the tourney, and the TD boots you from the table.Please DO NOT leave before the TD BOOTS you!! This is why it's called a BOOT'EM!! A miss means:  scratching, missing the shot, etc... You will stay in tourney only if you make a ball. The TD will make the Break and then the first player sits and shoots.When the table has been cleared, the TD will make the break again, and then the next player shoots. If a player scratches and you have next turn, then you can place the cue ball anywhere on the table. If you accidentally hit the RESET button, First Offense is a Warning, Second Offense will be automatic DQ.

*NOTE*---->We list the players in order they are booted then at the end of the tourney we report and advance in that order. This tourney is hosted with NON LADDER STATS, Because of the way the pairings fall sometimes second place winners MAY NOT come out in second place once the reports have been made.  This doesn't happen often but there is always a chance it might. ATTENTION....BOOT'EM's are played mostly for fun!! Only the "TOP WINNER" is Guaranteed Bux <------*NOTE*

SPECIAL BOOT'EM Played the same as Regular BOOT'EM but, when someone knocks in the 8 Ball they get to choose a player to BOOT from the game.

FLAWLESS< Played the same way as any other BOOT'EM TOURNEY with the EXCEPTION of the

TD HOSTING will set up all the balls on the table in a SPECIFIC LAYOUT before the first person takes a shot...any PLAYER who does not pot a ball is BOOTED...any PLAYER who hits any other ball on the table while shooting his intended ball  will be BOOTED

any and all  BIH is an AUTOMATIC BOOT
