RULES FOR PROGRESSIVE BILLIARDS
Except when clearly contradicted by these additional rules, the General Rules of Carom Billiards apply.
PLAYERS
Two individuals, or two teams.
EQUIPMENT
Standard set of balls, on a standard carom table.
OBJECT OF GAME
To reach a predetermined point count before your opponent.
SCORING
One point is scored each time a legal count is made. At the beginning of a player's inning the first count must be made with exactly zero cushions used. The second count of the inning must be made with exactly one cushion used. The third count of the inning must be made with exactly two cushions used. The fourth count must be made with exactly three cushions used. The fifth count starts the sequence over at exactly zero cushions. (The sixth count is 1-cushion, etc.).
OPENING BREAK
The red-ball must be the first object ball contacted on the break.
RULES OF PLAY
A legal counting stroke entitles the shooter to continue at the table until he fails to legally count.
The requirements of counting are described above under SCORING. A player may go for the count, or play safe as decribed in the General Rules of Carom Billiards.
PENALTIES FOR FOULS
One point will be deducted from the offender's score for each foul.
