Blackball
Blackball is a pool game that is popular in the United Kingdom, Ireland, several Western European nations, Australia and some other countries. In the UK and Ireland it is usually called simply "pool". The game is played with sixteen balls on a small pool table with six pockets. Blackball is an internationally standardised variation of the popular bar and club game eight-ball pool, closely related to the originally American and now professionally internationalised game eight-ball. The two main sets of playing rules are those of the World Pool-Billiard Association and its affiliate the European Blackball Association, known as "blackball rules", and the older code of the World Eightball Pool Federation, often referred to as "world rules".
