4 CORNERS
Rated Table
All balls including your 8 must be potted in the corner pockets only.
If you pot your 8 in a middle pocket it will result in a loss.
BANKS AND COMBOS
Rated Table
Every ball you make must be made by a bank shot or a combo shot.
A bank shot is when you bank the ball off an opposite rail of the pocket it is going into or bank the cue ball off an opposite rail of the pocket you are making a ball.
A combo is when you use another ball to make a ball.
Example: You hit the cue ball into the orange ball and the orange ball hits the blue ball and sinks the blue.
If a ball goes in without doing either of these, you must tap and give opponent BIH.
The break does not count.
BANK ROBBERY
Rated Table
No bank shots are allowed at any time including the cue ball being banked into a ball.
Accidental banks do not count as banks and you have to tap and give BIH to opponent if this occurs.
However, if you make a regular shot and another ball falls in after hitting a rail it is allowed.
