I should be so flukey
Oh dear. A quite addictive Pool game.
I will fully admit that I’m rubbish at pool at the best of times. At this online version of fancy pool (collecting coins and whatnot) I’m slightly better than normal, but I still can’t get past the blasted ninth level. Grrr.

This game is practically identical to cacho, as played by millions of Bolivians (and me) on little orange-crate tables outside bars across the country.
It’s quite addictive, once you get your head round it.
