Question

I played a lot of it in Korea. Only guys play it and they always smoke so it's quite unpleasant for non-smokers. I loved the game cause the strategy is much more challenging. You win buy scoring the first 21 points, I think.

Answer 3

Four Ball Game 2 (popular in Asia)

This game is popular in Asia, and is very common in Korea.

The game is played with four balls: Two red balls, one white, and either another white or a yellow ball. Each player is assigned either the white or yellow ball as his own cue ball. A point is scored when the shooter caroms on both red balls. The shooter is penalized a point if he fails to carom on either red ball or if the shooter causes any ball to carom on his opponent's cue ball. Thus, the shooter must avoid any carom of his opponent's ball while striving to carom on the two red object balls. A carom on only one red ball results in no points but ends the shooter's inning.
