English 8-ball question?

Question

I've noticed that in some other countries, instead of having numbered stripes and solids on bar tables, they use 7 red balls and 7 yellow balls in addition to the 8-ball (black ball). My question is this. Doesn't it ever get confusing which ball is being called if there is a tight cluster of reds or yellows? What if a whole lot is happening all at once very quickly and you can't tell which red or yellow was pocketed? By having numbered stripes and solids, this isn't a problem. You can just look in the ball return or the pocket, depending on the type of table.

Answer 1

Rules are slightly different, players here don't need to pot balls in sequence so there wouldn't be a question of orders. The rest of the game play are generally the same.

Answer 2

Bout like reffin a tag team worm fight  most of the times ive seen or played it in canada there isnt many call shots but quite a bit of ball counting

some places dont call red shots in snooker also you dont see many hard strokes in rither game i figure thats what lead to numberd balls

as always i got another comment put reg  numberd rack on snooker table shoot in rotation then colored ball  man pack a lunch we had 1 game last over 6 hrs

Answer 3

I dont think players actually call a specific ball or pocket in these games. Just as long as a correct legal shot is excecuted. As long as you pocket one of your balls, As long as one of your balls hits a specific amount of rails etc.
