Convergence 8-Ball
[848 hits, 6 votes, Average Rating 6.17] [Added: 20th Mar 2002]
Convergence 8 Ball plays much like 9 Ball, but each player has his/her own balls, making it less of a turn-by-turn battle than 9 Ball.

Cowboy Pool
[1242 hits, 8 votes, Average Rating 5.50] [Added: 20th Mar 2002]
Cowboy is another game that combines carom and pocket billiards skill, and employs a very unusual set of rules. Certainly a change of pace game; how many games have you played in which the cue ball must be pocketed on a carom of the 1 ball on the last shot??!

Crossover Pool
[912 hits, 11 votes, Average Rating 1.45] [Added: 20th Mar 2002]
Crossover is a rather unconventional 2-player game with very simple rules. It is challenging for any level of player, and cue ball control is critical.

One-Fifteen Ball
[937 hits, 7 votes, Average Rating 4.29] [Added: 20th Mar 2002]
Eight Ball (often called stripes and solids) is a unique game, and is doubtless the most commonly played pocket billiard game in the United States. This is a variation on that game in which special rules apply to the 1-ball and the 15-ball. The 1-ball and the 15-ball are termed "special balls" in this game.
