It's called "Super 6s".

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_6s

Maybe the thread title needs to be changed?


It's just a frame of snooker with 6 red balls to make it quicker.

I don't think it would be any good on this site though. For a start, it's exactly the same as the other snooker games on here, apart from the amount of reds, so wouldn't really be bringing much new to the site. But also the clearance would be far too easy and there's only a possible 75 break on (which is a bit pointless).

So 6 red balls but on a arcade table?

I wouldn't play this at all because of the fact that you can't make century breaks.

However, I think it is a decent idea. The main reason I like this is because it gives lower ranked players a major possibly of making the max break of 75. I'd have it on the original table though as that is what it is played on in real life.

Overall, I'm with dgen on this one. I'd much prefer to see snooker plus.

I don't think its a good idea for the simple fact that, it would be too easy.

I'm not being bigheaded, just realistic! There are numerous people that clear all the balls when the game starts with 10/15 so reducing it to 6 is far too easy in my opinion!

yeah arcade is easy enough as it is without number of balls being reduced.

To be fair, it wouldn't have to be on the arcade table.

yeah but if you think of the top players it would even be easy on original, id rather see snooker plus because its more challenging, i know its more chance of making a cent or even double cent but i think snooker plus is more challenging than super sixs.

also i remember a thread saying how bored of this site their was because its too easy and nothing really challenging but IMO snooker plus could be what doctor ordered.

Well obviously Snooker Plus is more challenging than Super 6s. The whole idea of Super 6s was to make a frame quicker and easier in the hope of attracting more people to the sport.

But there's just really no need for it on this site.

Snooker Plus on the other hand, would bring a lovely new challenge.

There is a one major difference in 6's foul wise. If they miss you are given 6 points unless they hit blk and it's 7 but u have 3 choices make them play again where it lie's...u play from where it lie's or pick white up and place in the baulk area we are playing this in the local league and its a instant hit dunno bout on here mind

snooker sixes would only be good for those who are learning how to play the game IMO.

snooker plus would be a great new challenge for all of us.

Snooker plus would have to go on the orig table though. Had this brought up a bit ago and the purple and orange would only fit on that table. I know original is a lot lot more popular but would it destroy the numbers on orig? I don't know.
