The Original Lazy Man's Pool
2–4 players · 0 min · 8+
The game board (14" x 22") resembles a pool table (six pockets) and players place pawns on the game board "pockets". By rolling dice that match the pocket, players may draw from the "Ball" deck and keep the card unless a "Scratch" card is drawn. If a "Scratch" is drawn, players must return a previously won "Ball." When all the "Balls" are drawn, the round is over and points are scored based on the total value of the "ball" cards won. The winner is player with the highest total after five rounds.
Variations included provide rules for 8-Ball, Rotation and 9-Ball.
