Plan your game
Plan a game for two
Pool suits a visit with a friend or a bit of friendly competition between rounds of board games. Agree the rules for the break and fouls before the first shot, especially if you’re used to different house rules.
Set a simple match format
Play one frame if you’re short on time, or agree a best-of-three and take turns breaking.
Think one shot ahead
Once you spot a ball you can pot, consider where you want the cue ball to finish for your next shot.
