Great idea and the light in the pocket is genius. -Michael

8 ball rules are simple. Shoot all your balls (stripes or solids) in the pockets with the white ball. You keep shooting until you miss then the other guy shoots until he misses. The 8 ball is always last.

I first shot this image and realized the pocket was too dark to tell depth so I dropped a small halogen hockey puck fixture in it to light it.

I don't know the rules of the game, so I can't read the standings, but I like the light in the "center pocket"...

It's a perfect setup for a shooter! 3 in the side, slight english on the cue ball sets up the 8 in the corner. Game over!

Now this is nice....though conceding is for chess, not pool. Most people I know would miss this shot....lol....Traveller
