We like playing billiards on this board, with the red starting on the center spot at the start and after it is potted, the yellow centered on the tip of either of the 3 points of the spokes in the sector that the striker is in, and the striker always shooting from the bar that the sector it is in, just like carrom. I play it solo up to 100 points, counting non scoring shots as single faults, and complete misses as double faults. Scoring points as in english billiards, 3pts for potting the red or striker in off the red, same idea with the yellow, but for two pts and 2 pts for a cannon. I've never scored a 10 pointer in any shot yet, but do get 7 pointers now and again. Mostly I set up cannons, only focusing on potting when the red and yellow get too split apart. The best I have managed so far is 100 points reached with 9 faults, but I am sure it is doable to reach 100 pts for zero faults. When we play 2 player games, if the opponent misses you are allowed the restart positions for the red, yellow and striker. I can only play this billiards game on the carrom board, because of the markings that give you the leeway to make it playable, so I am glad I have it ...have 2 games in 1 really.

I could be convinced; I've been looking for a Carrom set for a while, but I'm unsure if I should get a classic board or this one instead

Decisions decisions!!

@@carrooka3607 I mean I have the carrooka board and a crokinole board hanging on the wall... adding a carrom board would add a square to a series of round boards... better stick to the round

[@scarlettstoybox8432]

Great design! Can you tell us its size compared to the snooker size and pool size Carrooka?

[@carrooka3607]

It's the same size as the Pool8 board- 0cm playing surface:-)

Just tested the site and I get an error message when adding to basket.

[@carrooka3607]

My fault!! I was just building the webpage, it shouldn't have been live yet at all! Please check back on Saturday evening, it will all be working and ready then:-)
