Welcome to the billiard, pool, and snooker glossary of terms. This is the definition of Called Pocket as it relates to cue sports. You can also view the entire billiard dictionary.
A called pocket is the pocket in which a player has designated a ball to be shot. In most game rules, or any game played no slop, the shooting player must be proactive in calling the pocket which they intend to make their object ball fall in to.
Did that go in to your called pocket, or another pocket? What was the called pocket for that shot anyway? I didn't even hear you call a pocket now that I think about it.
