1 Game Objective
The objective of this game is for an individual player to pot all the balls of their
particular group and then legally pot the 8 ball to win the game. 8 ball custom is
basically played with exactly the same rules as in 8 ball (UK). However there are
available a number of options that may be utilised to tailor the desired nature of the
game. Differing combinations of these may be used to produce 255 possible variants
of the normal 8 ball (UK) rules.
2 Game Start
i The game starts in the same way as 8 ball (UK), with all rules for breaking applicable.
ii After the break, play continues in the same way as 8 ball (UK) unless a predefined
custom setting comes into effect.
3 Fouls
All fouls that occur in 8 ball (UK) fully apply to 8 ball custom, except for fouls that are
directly affected by subsequent alteration of the custom settings.
5 Game Loss
All game loss circumstances that occur in 8 ball (UK) fully apply to 8 ball custom, with
the exception of a main option which affects how a game may be lost. This is directly
related to the situation arising from the illegal potting of the 8 ball.
6 General
The game is ended when the 8 ball is potted in any pocket and all the remaining balls
including the cue ball have come to rest. The exception is an option to affect whether
the 8 ball may be potted in any pocket or must alternatively go into a nominated one.
