	History of Pool and Carom Billiards - Online Guide
		Following centuries of Billiards dominated by England and France, during the 19th century a third country became obsessed with the sport of cues and balls.
		It was played like English Billiards by aiming to pocket balls, go in-off (scratch) or by making canons which were called 'caroms'.
		The oldest Billiards games played in the USA were One-Pocket and Four-Ball Billiards.

	Eight ball - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		To start the game, the colored balls are placed in a triangle, called a "rack." The base of the rack is parallel to the short end of the pool table and positioned so the ball in the tip of the rack is located on the head spot.
		The cue ball is placed anywhere the breaker desires between the head string and its nearest short side (that is, the quarter of the table farthest from the rack), an area known as the "kitchen."
		The balls in the rack are pressed into contact with the head ball, and remain in contact after the rack is removed.

	Virtual Pool Hall Review for PC at GameSpot
		Some new game modes have been added, including 15-ball, cribbage (sinking two consecutive balls whose total face value equals 15), cowboy (a combination of carom and billiards), Honolulu (no straight-in shots), and bowlliards (run a rack of ten balls for a strike!).
		You also get snooker, which may or not be appealing to you, and two types of billiards (one- and three-cushion) - but for some reason you can't play either billiards variation against the computer.
		Virtual Pool Hall carries the same guarantee as Virtual Pool 2, which isn't surprising since a closer inspection of the box copy reveals that it's basically just Virtual Pool 2 with a handful of enhancements.

	World Standardized Rules
		This rule is not applicable to 14.1 Continuous where the game consists of successive racks: the rack in progress will be discontinued and a completely new rack will be started with the requirements of the normal opening break (players lag for break).
		For the complete World Standardized Rules, please consider Billiards: The Official Rules and Records Book, published by the Billiard Congress of America.
		Whenever a referee is presiding over a match, any object ball moved during a standard foul must be returned as closely as possible to its original position as judged by the referee, and the incoming player does not have the option of restoration.

	history of billiards
		To eliminate the problem, Jerome Keogh, the champion in 1910, suggested that the last ball in each rack be left free, to be used as a target on the next rack.
		Its only problem was weight—which indirectly led to a further advancement: tables had to be constructed far sturdier, which also led to an improvement in play.
		With games and equipment becoming standardized, another problem developed: producing balls of the exact same size, weight and density was nearly impossible when working with ivory.

	history of billiards
		To eliminate the problem, Jerome Keogh, the champion in 1910, suggested that the last ball in each rack be left free, to be used as a target on the next rack.
		In 1797, William Cockerill left England, armed with a secret that would impact the game by bringing unparalleled smoothness to the table.
		While it kept the leather dry and somewhat prevented "slipping" upon impact, it had no "grit" allowing the leather "to take hold of the ball." Consequently, miscues were common, especially with the higher-impact games.
