The game of equal offense was created by Billiard Congress of America Master Instructor Jerry Briesath and uses some of the concepts of 14.1 continuous billiards and the famous game of Bowlliards. The shooter continues shooting until he or she illegally pockets a ball, makes a foul, or reaches a maximum score for the inning or frame in which he or she is shooting. The shot must be called before the shooter engaging, but the call only needs to be the ball and the pocket, no caroms or kisses, etc. have to be called.
The shooter gets credit for all balls pocketed on a given shot so long as the shooter pockets the ball he or she called prior to the shot. Each inning after the opening inning begins with the shooter who scored highest in the previous game and goes down from there. The game is played with the standard set of fifteen balls that are racked normally and the maximum number of points scored in one inning or frame is 200 before the shooter must give up the shot.
Internet Equal Offense- Internet equal offense uses the standard set of rules for the equal offense billiards with the obvious change being that you are playing via the internet against competitors from all around the world.
