Game Development
The game starts with the cue ball in hand. The starting player must place it in a semi-circle or otherwise called D-Zone (pictured above). This rule also applies during the game if the player enters the pit or leaves the field.
The first shot to open the game should definitely be a red color. Initial shooting is best done according to figure 2 above so that the red balls do not open too much and the opponent is not able to take them easily. If the player / striker gets no ball then he leaves the snooker table, sits in his chair in order to allow the other player to make his shot.
If a colored ball is taken instead of getting a red bil, then it is called a foul and the minimum point added to the opponent is 4 points, blue balls 5 points, pink balls 6 points and black balls 7 points.
The throw is called regular if the catch does not go into the pit or gets out or a red ball is put inside. If the turn is for red, then it is not called a foul if the player gets 2 reds or more red immediately but the amount of points the player receives is 1 point regardless of the number of red tickets he has entered with a shot put. If the turn is for the red card and the player gets a color ball in that kick then it is called a foul and the amount of points added to the opponent is (Minimum 4 points, Blue ball 5 points, Pink ball 6 points and Black ball 7 points) .
After picking a red ball, continue with picking a colored ball and so on until all the red balls are finished. Whenever a colored ball is taken, the referee must place the field back to its original position. If that position is not free then the ball is placed in a free position of one of the positions of other descending colors (if the pink ball does not have the free position then it is placed in this order “in the place of Bluse, brown, green, yellow and finally Black. ”
After finishing the red balls, shoot at one of the colored balls in the field and extract that balls to its original position based on the above rule. After that the shot should start from the smallest to the largest (2 points yellow, 3 points green, 4 points paint, 5 points blue, 6 points pink, 7 points black) and the cue ball will not go out if they are scored. by the player. The game ends after the last ball is taken.
The winner is the player who has the highest points. If at the end of the match the points are a draw, then the black balls comes into its starting position, and the player who has taken the last ball puts the balls in half circle and hits the black balls.
