There was a crowd! Not even giving others a chance to hit,the game would be finished. So think about it, how bad they are and how interesting it could be if you see pros play it. Thats all! Live HAPPY!

Thanks for clarifying the rules, TibJuice! You'll have to post some video of yourself playing so that we can all see the pro in action!

Game starts with 9white, 9black and 1red together racked in a small lined circle in the middle. My point to the people is that these two suck at this game since i've seen this clip. You would be shocked if you've witness me played during my childhood. Just imagine playing everyday, making bets such as 10 teas, 10 orders of meals, and 20-1000 rupee bets which my uncle bets on me to play against his friends.

This game is called Carom Board! During my childhood, I used be pro at this. You can play one on one or play teams where you are facing your teammate and trying to reach 29points.
